Additional Information

Clutch cable 1579MA connects the control lever to the drive system clutch on your snowblower. It helps engage and disengage the drive function for smooth movement during operation.

Disconnect the spark plug before starting the repair. Use a screwdriver and pliers to remove the old cable and attach the new one securely. Wear work gloves to protect your hands during installation.

New cable placement
February 27, 2022|Danhq37@ m C, Old Bridge New Jersey

You will need to push the old cable through the spring to expose a nut to be unscrewed. Before removing measure the distance from the nut to the end and screw on to new cable after pushing through the spring and attach to handle and drive lever or auger lever.
