USING THE 'CAM LOCK' HANDLE.
Swing the upper handle to the operating position and lock it in
place by pushing the Cam Lock Lever(s)
upwards towards the upper handle. The
firmness of the locking action can be
adjusted by turning the nut on the inside
of the cam lock bolt.
THE CABLES
All models have two cables:
1. The engine throttle control cable.
2. The roller clutch cable.
In addition to these cables models in some markets need to be
fitted with the OPC control cable.
1. THE ENGINE THROTTLE CONTROL CABLE.
The control lever and housing must be fitted to the top handle. The
lever is enclosed by two large plastic housings held together by four
phillips head screws. Remove the screws and place the top housing
(the one with the control lever) in position by fitting its two posts into
the holes in the handle tube. When doing this, ensure that the con-
trol cable runs above the lower handle cross bar to avoid damaging
the cable when the handle is folded for storage. The bottom control
housing can then be fitted under the top housing and held there by
replacing and tightening the four screws.

2. FITTING THE ROLLER CLUTCH CABLE.
This cable will be already attached to the mower at the lower end.
The clutch cable is the one that enters the mower under the shaft
cover. With the cable running above the cross bar of the lower
handle, feed the end of the 'z' fitting—at the top of the flexible inner
cable—through the small hole in the roller clutch bail, found below
the handle. Turn the 'z' fitting so the cable is running alongside the
upper handle.

It may be necessary to adjust the cable operation after fitting the
cable, see page 9 for details.
3. FITTING THE OPC CABLE, WHERE FITTED.
The OPC (Operator Presence Control) cable is attached to a switch
box close to the engine output shaft. Route the cable above the
lower handle crossbar and feed the end of the 'z' fitting on the inner
cable though the small hole in the OPC bail—above the handle.
Clip the OPC cable anchor to the upper handle from above by
inserting it's peg into the hole in the handle. Press it down firmly until
it locks into position.
