I did the repair myself using a pliers, a plastic tie cutter and a flashlight to see under the deck.
1. Move the deck engage handle in not-engaged position;
2. With the pliers, remove the hold-in pin, holding the end of the cable on the bar;
3. Save the washer and remove the cable;
4. Cut the plastic tie holding the cable to the tractor chassis;
5. On the deck, remove the hold-in pin, slide the washer and remove the cable assembly;
6. Mount the new cable in the same order of disassembly The new cable contains all the parts;
7. Insert the end of the cable on the bar, insert the washer and the hold-in pin;
8. Install a plastic tie in place of the removed tie to hold the cable to the chassis;
9. Mount the end spring (between the existing belt) in the existing hole of the engagement bar;
10. Slide the cable wire in the hole, install the special washer and the hold-in pin;
11. Engage the bar to check that the mowing deck cutting blades are engaged. You are done.
In some cases, if your working space is not enough to install the cable, you would have to remove entirely the mowing deck, but this requires a little bit more work. Good Luck!
