Additional Information

The Snowblower Auger Drive Cable (part number 946-04701) connects the auger control lever to the auger drive system, allowing you to engage or disengage the auger during snow clearing.

If the auger does not engage properly or you notice a delayed response when using the control lever, the auger drive cable may be worn or damaged. Replacing the cable can restore reliable auger control and improve snowblower performance.

Before installing the auger drive cable, turn off the snowblower and disconnect the spark plug wire to prevent accidental starting. Wear work gloves to protect your hands during installation. Use a screwdriver and pliers to remove the old cable and install the new one securely, checking for proper tension. Refer to the service manual for your model or consult a technician if you need help with installation.
