    Question:
    775H ex (2012) stopped running and will not restart. Mowed under a small bush and the engine stopped and will not restart. Maybe spring missing. I need a detailed diagram for the model/775H to see the spring locations and connections.

      I am currently having this EXACT same issue with the same model! Did you figure out the issue/repair? I hate to drag the lawn mower to a dealer just to have a spring attached.

        Tiffany, I don't even know if a spring is the issue.  I am going to change out the fuel, I have not received any information that is of any value and I have not found another 2012 775H to see any hardware/spring that could be missing.  The Husqvarna manual information is useless to me.  I will eventually come up with a fix and will post information that may be helpful.

          Unfortunately, my husband and I searched near and far for a correct diagram. The spring that had been stretched beyond use luckily remained attached so we realized this was most likely the issue. This same spring does not appear in any of the diagrams we've found online, no matter how detailed they are. Perhaps I could be of help to you. I took this spring to a husqvarna dealer and he ordered me it (in hopes of it being the correct one, because not even he could pinpoint exactly which it was according to the diagrams he had either-they are that useful, he showed me). I have to wait until next Monday or Tuesday to finally get this spring and then attach to see if it fixes the issue. I took photos (the best I could because it was in a tough area to get a good one) of where the spring belongs and will post them. I will let you know if this fixes the issue. Hopefully it turns out to be of some use to you as well.

          I guess I do not understand why Husqvarna would put such a crucial part out in the open when it was so easy to get it snagged on shrubs etc. Frustrating.

        Tiffany Kennedy,  I have resolved my "will not start problem".  The "choke return spring was pulled off by a bush.  I am attaching two pics with the order information and the location where I put the spring.  It started up on the first pull.  I have the Husqvarna 775H 2012 model.  I removed the filter and the engine cover.  The engine cover has just 3 7/16" nuts.  Pic 1 is the "spring" and Pic 2 is the spring installed.  The spring cost was $2.40.

        Tiffany, this is the second pic with the spring installed.  I got the spring a a local lawn repair shop but can be ordered online.

        Tiffany, looks like I put in the same pic twice.  This is the spring number on the package.

      This is a picture (spring on carb) of my 2012 775H.  I don't see any others.  I will replace the fuel and plug today and try again.

      Its amazing how much information about the hu775h is not available online. I am also looking for a diagram of the spring locations for the throttle/governor.

      Stephanie, this is the choke return spring.  In the next pic I will post the number for the spring I ordered.  Once I put the spring on the mower starts on the first pull.

      Ironically, the day before I got your first message I actually rigged the lawn mower myself by using a pen spring I found lying around. It worked first try. I knew where the spring belonged only because, luckily, the spring remained attached with no tension left. I took the spring to a dealer to purchase the correct spring and it's been almost two weeks since I've heard from them. If I hadn't rigged it, our grass would be at least a foot long by now. Extremely frustrating on Husqvarna's part.
