How do the cable and conduit lengths affect installation?

This Dalom assembly uses the standard OEM lengths to preserve routing and lever travel. The outer conduit and inner cable lengths determine how the lever engages and how much travel is available; a mismatch can prevent proper blade control or create excess slack.

• Total cable length: 51-1/4 inches for full travel
• Conduit (outer sheath) length: 37-3/4 inches for correct routing
• Z-bent ends match original attachment points for secure connection
• Designed for direct-fit where OEM part numbers align

What should I expect during replacement and maintenance?

Replacing the control cable is generally a simple repair that restores control and safety. Remove the old cable from the handle lever and blade brake arm, then route and attach the Dalom cable in the same orientation; adjust any jam nuts or clamp points to remove slack.

• Includes one complete 946-1113A blade control cable
• Replace in the same routing as the original cable to avoid binding
• Inspect levers and mounting points for wear when replacing
• Lubricate pivot points and check cable action after installation

Who is this for: The Dalom 946-1113A cable is for homeowners and small-property maintenance technicians who need an OEM-dimension replacement for MTD, Troy-Bilt or Craftsman walk-behind mowers. It’s suited for users who have identified a failing or stretched blade control cable and want a direct-fit part that restores proper lever travel and safety without extensive modification. If you are unsure, verify your mower’s model and original part number to confirm compatibility before purchasing.
