Product Information
Full details
The GGP Engine Brake Cable (1810006870) is an essential safety and control component designed for lawn mower owners who need to restore or maintain the engine cut-off functionality of their machinery. This 1000mm cable is ideal for DIY repair enthusiasts using compatible Stiga or Mountfield mowers, ensuring the engine stops immediately when the handle is released. While it offers high durability and a precise fit, users must ensure their specific mower chassis and handle configuration matches the 1000mm length requirement before installation.

FAQs
Is this cable compatible with my specific mower?
This part is designed for models such as the Turbo 480/550 and SP505R. It replaces OEM numbers 181000687/0 and 1111-2968-02.
What is the total length of this cable?
The cable measures 1000mm in total length.
Do I need special tools to install this?
Generally, you only need basic hand tools like pliers and a screwdriver to release and secure the cable ends.
Can I lubricate this cable?
Yes, using a light silicone lubricant on the inner wire is recommended to keep operation smooth and prevent corrosion.
What should I do if the cable is slightly too long?
If the cable is significantly too long, it is not the correct part for your machine; do not attempt to 'double up' or knot the cable, as this is a safety hazard.
Is this a genuine GGP part?
Yes, this is a genuine GGP engine brake cable intended to meet original equipment standards.
Troubleshooting
Engine continues to run after releasing handle
Adjust the cable tension at the adjuster barrel; if it cannot be tightened further, the inner wire may have stretched and needs replacement.
Bail arm is too stiff to pull down
Check the cable routing for sharp bends or kinks and ensure no debris is stuck in the engine brake spring mechanism.
Engine will not start
The cable may be too tight, preventing the engine brake from releasing; loosen the adjuster barrel to provide more slack.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation involves securing the cable ends to the control lever and the engine brake assembly. Ensure the cable is routed away from hot engine components to prevent outer sheath melting. Compatibility includes, but is not limited to, the Turbo 480, Turbo 550, and SP505R series. Regular maintenance involves inspecting the cable for signs of fraying or rust and applying a silicone-based lubricant to the inner wire to maintain smooth operation. Keep the cable free of grass clippings and debris to prevent binding.
