Outboard question

I am recently turned 76. I can still crank up through an 18/ 20 but I have to use both hands and "get up on it." The 35's are what are tough. They generally have a poor compression release, but they don't seem to work well and often don't work at all.

Both my shoulder rotators have been trashed in separate injuries, and likely will never be fixed. I must be VERY careful. I can NOT crank those annoying little weed eaters. They "snap" the rope when they fire and I just hurt BAD after that
