Additional Information
The snowblower cable arm lever, left, part number 587739701, mounts to the control linkage and serves as the connection point between the control cable and the driven mechanism. As the control lever is operated, the cable arm lever transfers that motion to engage or disengage the system.
You might notice delayed response when operating the control, inconsistent engagement, or a lever that no longer moves the connected linkage fully. Bending, cracking, or wear at the pivot point can also prevent smooth cable movement.
Disconnect the spark plug wire before beginning the repair. The cable arm lever installs near moving linkage and metal brackets, so work gloves can help protect your hands during removal and installation. Make sure the lever pivots freely and the cable is seated correctly before reconnecting the spark plug wire.
