Maintenance

OPC Cable Adjustment

    NOTE - If there is more than 10mm movement in the OPC lever before the cable begins to 
move, then the OPC cable will require adjustment. It is necessary as part of routine
maintenance to adjust the OPC cable tension to ensure the lawnmower will start correctly. 

  50

Follow the OPC cable to the adjuster located on the side of the engine.
Undo the lock nut and wind it forwards.
Move the adjustment nut towards the lock nut and continually check the cable tension at the
lever.
Once the movement has been removed, hold the adjustment nut in place and tighten the lock 
nut back towards the adjustment lever to lock the cable in place. Check the cable adjustment 
has worked by starting the mower. If the mower still fails to start, re-adjust until the lawn 
mower starts. Also check that when the OPC lever is released, that the blade stops promptly.
