1. Unwrap the cable from the engine and route the cable
under the lower handle. Press the snap fitting into the hole
on the upper handle as shown in Fig. 3-5.
IMPORTANT:The cable must be routed properly to avoid contact
with all sharp edges and hot surfaces. Such contacts damage the
cable and render the controls inoperative.
1. Secure the cable to the lower left handle near the base of
the unit with a cable tie. See Fig. 3-6. Trim off any excess.
