coil up spring and insert into pullcord housing. wind string around cord pulley (tie in designated spot on pulley first tho), and place in housing. this is the gist of a pullcord, not all are the same. the idea is that the spring should be at rest when the cord is wound in, and pulling the cord tensions the spring.
