Additional Information

Part number 946-04007 replaces 746-04007 and connects the auger control lever to the auger clutch in Craftsman snowblowers. This cable lets you engage the auger when clearing snow. If the auger isn t turning or won t engage when you squeeze the control lever, the cable may be stretched or broken and should be replaced.

To install the auger cable, disconnect the spark plug wire to prevent accidental starting. Use pliers and a screwdriver to detach the old cable and connect the new one, following the same routing. Wear work gloves to protect your hands from sharp edges or cold surfaces during the process.

Replacing a worn auger cable restores full function to your snowblower and helps it handle heavy snow without interruptions. Regular inspection of control cables helps avoid performance issues during winter weather.
