HANDLES AND CONTROL CABLES
Toro 2 Bail Handle
There are four types of handle and control assemblies
on mowers not covered in other parts of this manual.
This section will cover disassembly and repair of those
types.
Fig 223
3428-0049
The 2 bail style is shown here. The top bail is the engine
kill. Release it and the ignition is grounded and a brake
comes on to help stop the flywheel. The lower bail is the
self propel bail. Squeeze it to tension the belt and drive
the transmission. It should be adjusted so that lowering
the bail about 1” (25mm) disengages the self propel.
Handle disassembly is self explanatory so we will not
discuss that.
Turning the knob tightens or loosens the cable. When
the bail is lowered about 1” (25mm) the drive should
disengage.
Fig 224
fig 19
The engine stop cable is not adjustable. If it fails to
function, it must be replaced.
The self propel cable is adjustable through a clamp
which is typically located a few inches down the handle.
Loosen this clamp and push the cable jacket up or down
to adjust. When the bail is lowered about 1” (25mm) the
drive should disengage. This is a gap that is comfortable
for most operators.
Some models used a knob to adjust the self propel cable
(Fig. 224).
