One thing I got wrong, though, is that the upper handle is not symmetric and the bolt securing the cable anchor has a square head, so you'll want to make sure to get that right...square hole goes to the left size (orientation is relative to the mower being in front of you, like you are holding the handle and mowing). I didn't realize that until I had the whole thing almost entirely back together again. If you miss that like I did, you can also use a hammer to seat the bolt so you don't have to disassemble everything again.
