Chute Control Cable Routing
(If Equipped)
For units equipped with chute cables, ensure
they are routed properly. Chute control cables
are routed through a single wire guide (a) on
top of the engine and/or through two wire
guides (b) located on the left side of the unit.
NOTE: For smoothest operation, cables should
all be to the left of the chute directional control
rod.
NOTE: The number of cables routed through
the wire guides will depend on your model.
1. Locate cable guide(s) and perform the
following:
• Units with Top Mounted Wire Guide
(a) - Check that all cables are properly
routed through cable guide on top of
engine. See Figure 2-8.
• Units with Side Mounted Wire Guides
(b) - Check that all cables are properly
routed through the wire guide below
the left side of the engine and the wire
guide below the chute control head.
See Figure 2-8.
