Murray Trimmer Control Cables

The throttle control, otherwise known as a throttle cable, controls the speed of your engine. This is an OEM throttle control that is black and silver in color, and made of metal with a rubberized coating. The cable can become broken, stretched, or worn over time, which will no longer allow you to have control over your engine RPMs. This will require a repair, which most of our customers found easy. You will need a screwedriver and wrench set to carry out this repair, which requires attaching the cable to the carburetor and throttle trigger.

The latching control cable engages and disengages the cutting head of your trimmer. It is sold individually and is manufacturer-certified as an OEM part. It is made of metal with a rubberized coating, and can become stretched, broken, or otherwise damaged over time, which will cause you to lose control of the cutting head.
