Maintenance
Adjusting the Drive Cable
(Self-Propelled Units Only)
WARNING: Before you adjust the drive cable,
release the engine stop lever and wait for the
engine to stop.
If the drive system does not engage and disengage correctly,
check the handle for correct assembly. Make sure that all
parts are in good condition, not broken or bent, and that all
fasteners are tight.
Worn parts and cable stretch will change the performance of
the drive system. When you mow in high or thick grass or
on hills, the drive system can slip. If the drive system is
slipping, adjust as follows or take the mower to an
authorized service center.
IMPORTANT: Before you start the engine, operate the engine
stop lever several times. Make sure the engine stop cable
moves freely.
Note: The engine design does not include a throttle control
or an engine speed adjustment. The engine is set at the best
speed for cutting grass, bagging grass, and for extended
engine life.
1. If the drive system is slipping, loosen the jam nut (B,
Figure 21) on the adjustment turnbuckle (A) , and rotate
the ferrule (C) one-half turn in the direction shown. Test
the drive system and check for slippage.
2. If the drive system still slips, adjust again. Again, test
the drive system.
3. Repeat the adjustment and test until the drive system
does not slip.
4. Before you begin to mow, make sure the drive system
will correctly disengage and that the mower will stop. If
the drive system will not disengage, take the mower to
an authorized service center before you operate the
mower.
