You will have to take off the engine cover that the pull rope is located in Usually it held on by four screws. Then pull the cover off and then you can access the string to rethread the pull handle or replace the whole rope. Hope this helps you.

Pull the original pullstring out completely, the hole in the wheel should be lined up with the hole in the housing. Use clamp to hold the wheel in place. Measure the pull string and cut the new one the same length. Now wind the wheel a couple of more turns in the way you were pulling the pullstring out. Thread the new string through both holes and tie a knot to keep in place. Let it rewind, if you have slack in the string after it is completely rewound you will have to pull string back out take up a few more turns and then reassemble.

Who does Briggs and stratton contract to build their snapper mowers?

Briggs and Stratton does contract anyone to build mowers. The mower manufacturers contract Briggs and Stratton to build their engines (or whatever engine is on the unit). That is why you can have a Briggs and Stratton on most any type of mower. Same is true for Kohler, Tecumseh, etc. Not to say that the engine manufacturers do not build their own type of outdoor power tool but as the question states "snapper mower". Also keep in mind that if you have a snapper mower with a Briggs and Stratton engine and you need warranty work on the engine you need to go to an Authorized Briggs repair facility where as if you have a mower warranty then you need to go to an authorized repair facility for the mower manufacturer.
