Mower won't shut off
Maybe it will help if I refer to the drawing, https://lookup2.toro.com/Ill/1x/375/375100.gif. Part No. 923 has two ears, one attached to the brake handle cable the other is spring tensioned. When I release the brake handle the cable definitely slackens and releases it's ear sufficiently, but I have to reach down and manually squeeze these two ears together to kill the engine. Must be something obstructing the opposite side of the ear inside the engine. |

Thanks everyone, cleaning the linkage and bending the armature a little
bit restored the contact so that now it kills the engine. |
