HRX217HYA • HRX217HZA

BLADE CONTROL LEVER RELEASED FROM HANDLEBAR

When the blade control lever is released from the handlebar, the blade control cable is released, allowing the ball
plate to move down and apply the brake. The brake plate pushes down on the driven disc, and compress the clutch
spring, causing the driven disc to be released from the drive disc. The application of the brake and disengagement of
the clutch causes the driven disc, blade holder, and blades to quickly stop.
