HANDLES AND CONTROL CABLES
5
. Install the screen panel with the two flanged head
self-tapping screws. Make sure that the top edge
of the screen panel is under the lip at the top of
the housing. The screen is installed, sharp edge
down, to allow air to be drawn in through the screen
panel on top of the deck and down underneath the
deck. This venting improves the airflow underneath
the deck thereby improving quality of cut and
bagging performance. Be sure to clean the screen
on occasion, especially if quality of cut or bagging
performance has degraded.
Toro BBC Cable Adjustment (Recycler/Rear
Bagger)
The cable adjustment is the clamp on top of the housing
on the left side of the mower. Loosen the screw holding
the cable clamp. Pull the cable to the rear just enough to
remove the slack (Fig. 265). Hold and tighten the clamp.
The spring on the forward end of the cable should be
suspended just off the housing.
Note: An overly tight cable will cause the BBC to
disengage before the bail can be raised to
the normal operating position. Cock the bail
downward and raise to the handle. If the BBC
disengages and you hear the brake engage
with a snap, the cable is likely too tight.
Excessive cable tension causes the control
hook in the control box to release. It doesn’t
do any permanent damage to any parts.
Loosen the cable slightly and repeat the test.

On BBC models, the control bail also controls the
transmission belt engagement. The adjustment point
is a knob about halfway between the control panel and
transmission. Ideally, the cable should be set so that
the transmission drive will disengage when the bail is
lowered about 1” (25mm). This allows the bail to be
lowered so that the wheels stop driving and the BBC
remains engaged, but the gap isn’t so large that the
handle is hard to hold (Fig. 264). This measurement
is not an exact requirement. It can be varied to
accommodate a customer with small hands, etc.
