Spring-extension 932-0264

Took more time to remove guards and covers than to replace broken parts

1. Disconnected spark plug & ignition key.
2. Took off belt cover.
3. Took off the 2 nuts holding spring in place & cleaned the threads.
4. Attached spring to bottom post and stretched to top post.
5. Put the nuts back on posts.
6. After putting new belts on, put belt cover back on.

I started by watching 2 You Tube videos on carb replacement, it was the most involved. Many parts had to come off and in a special order for repair. The Parts ordered fit perfect and all were as listed.

Tip machine upright onto agar housing. Remove lower cover with 6 bolts attaching. Disconnect cable at handle grips. Attach spring from cable to control lever located under machine and proceed to connect cable at handle lever. Adjust cable slack with threaded piece. In a pinch, I would put another hook on the end of the old spring of the cable and connect it back. If you don't bend it properly, the lever on the clutch will not work quite right. Also once a spring breaks once, it is not long before it breaks off again. This is why I order the correct replacement part asap. I also think that while you have your machine apart it is good to replace other springs or cables that appear corroded. Take a look at belts too.
