Additional information

This snowblower left engagement handle (powder black), part number 790-00125D-0637, attaches to the control area and provides a comfortable, finished grip for engaging the drive or auger functions. The powder black finish helps resist corrosion and gives the handle a clean look aligned with the machines styling.
