HANDLES&CONTROLCABLES
PersonalPaceGeneration1/Easy
StrideGeneration1
This is the original Toro Personal Pace/ Lawn Boy Easy
Stride system. The handle is telescoping and as it slides,
it tensions the transmission drive belt.
Operation
The best way to use this system is as follows: Hold your
elbows at your sides and your hands straight out in front
of you and just walk. If you want to go faster, walk faster.
The key is keeping your elbows at your sides. This
applies the right amount of pressure to the handle to
engage the drive. If you just push the handle down it will
engage too rapidly and the mower will jump forward.
Disassembly
1. Squeeze the ends of the control bail to disengage it
from the handle. Disconnect the cable from the bail
and set aside (Fig. 259).
