2. Figured out how to disengage old cable from drive unit without mower disassembly. (long handle, long nose heavy needle-nose pliers)

4. Reattached new cable to same location as old cable
5. Reattached handle e ... Read more nd of cable to drive engage handle
6. Adjusted cable setting so there was no tension & no slack
7. Mower now operates exactly like it did before the original cable broke.
I believe the reason the cable broke was improper assembly of the new mower at the dealership. A tie wrap pulled the drive able almost 90 degrees from the handle entry angle. This means the cable had to navigate a sharp corner which caused excess friction and premature failure. I\'ll tie wrap the replacement cable further down the handle so cable positioning is correct and this failure won\'t happen again.
Propulsion transmission wouldnGÇÖt engage because cable broke.
