This part is an OEM from the Snapper manufacturer. The clutch control cable is constructed of metal and plastic parts, and is compatible with many lawn mowers. This item is fastened onto the clutch handle and clutch spring, giving the user control of the mower engine's gear case. This part is sold individually. A wrench and a screwdriver are helpful in the removal and replacement.
I believe the original clutch control cable required a pin to attach to the lever you use to activate the self-propel of the lawn mower. There is a O shaped ring at one end of the cable that hooks into the spring near the mower itself. The top of the cable no longer has an O shaped ring and therefore no longer requires a pin to attach it
... Read moreto the lever on the handle. It\'s an odd shape that hooks into the pin hole and holds itself in place. No tools required and very little muscle required! I\'m no mechanic by any stretch of the imagination and was able to complete this repair all on my own!
Take the old cable off super easy then cut off old wire ties that secure it to the mower. Affix both ends of the cable then wire tie new cable to the mower with approx. 6 wire ties then you are done.
The clutch cable broke and at the time I wasn\'t sure what parts I needed the picture of the mower wasn\'t all that great. The drive wheel was wearing after a lot of use so I replaced that everything was as easy .
Placed upper cable fitting into clutch control handle then used screw driver to stretch clutch spring so that the lower cable fitting could be attached.
Cut off old cable ties. Hooked new cable to handle & clutch. Re-routed new cable along mower handle & wire tied back on. No tools needed other than cutters to cut off old cable. Less than a 5 min repair.
