Yard-Man Edger Control Cable

This genuine OEM Part is a choke temperature control rod for lawnmowers. The choke temperature control is the metal piece that regulates the choke temperature allowing for it to function properly within a lawnmower. If the choke function is no longer working efficiently, it might be time to replace the choke temperature control. Luckily, replacing this part is a simple repair.Before beginning, make sure the engine is cool to avoid getting burned. Locate the old choke temperature control rod and remove the screws to the mounting assembly that hold the rod in place. Once removed, lift the old choke temperature control out and away from the mower and set it to the side. Replace with the new control rod and secure the mounting screws. Start up the mower to see if the choke function is working properly. If it does, the installation was a success. This replacement part is sold individually and is compatible with MTD brand lawnmowers.

This OEM part is a depth cable for lawnmowers. Also known as a stop cable, the depth cable is the cord that stops the blades from running when the mower is in an idle position. If the lever has been released and the blades are still rotating, this might mean that the depth cable is no longer functioning and needs to be replaced. Luckily replacing the depth cable is a relatively simple fix. To replace the depth cable, begin by removing the bracket that holds the cable to the handle by using a screwdriver to pry it off. On the lower part of the handle, there is a clip that secures the cable. Remove the clip and disconnect the end of the cable near the kill handle. Locate the brackets connected to the engine. Remove the plastic tabs securing the cable housing with a pair of needle-nose pliers and pull the housing away from the bracket. Set the old cable aside and reinstall the new cable in reverse order.
