Removed all the screws from the throttle trigger assembly, removed broken cable from the carburetor linkage. Threaded new cable back on to the carburetor linkage. Threaded the other end of the new throttle cable onto the trigger assembly. Put the two clam shell pieces together for the trigger assembly with the screws. Made sure trigger moved freely at trigger end and carburetor end, then started the trimmer up and worked beautifully!
