Clutch cable broke and drive belt needed replaced

Remove broken cable and bad belt. You need to remove inspection belt cover, tilt snow blower up and remove skid plate. Remove broken cable and bad belt. Put new belt on then replace broken cable. Put on new cable that engages the clutch and adjust. Put on inspection cover. All Finished went very well and saved me a lot of money doing the repairs my self. Saved a lot of time by not having to send my snow blower in for repair. I am very happy and will always do repairs my self. Thanks
