The lower handle of my mower broke where it connected to the mower itself as a result of having been bent and damaged.

Tools:
Pliers, Screw drivers
1. I took off the old lower handle. It is held on with handle knobs so it required only my hand to remove it.
2. Cut the zip ties holding cables to the lower handle
3. Took the upper handle off of the lower handle.
4. I replaced the lower handle then added the upper handle. Both handles are held on with cotter pins and h andle knobs.
5. Replaced zip ties on the new lower handle to keep cables in place.

This was a very basic and easy repair!
