Lawn Boy 138-3268-03 Bail Brake Lawn Mower Control

Product Description

The LAWN BOY 138-3268-03 is a bail brake assembly designed for use on Lawn Boy walk-behind lawn mowers. The bail brake serves as a critical operator presence safety control, engaging the drive or blade brake system when the operator releases the handle bail. This component is part of the mower's dead-man safety circuit, stopping blade or drive motion whenever the operator steps away or loses grip. Licensed small engine technicians and outdoor power equipment service professionals are the typical installers for this replacement part.

This bail brake assembly is suited for residential walk-behind lawn mower applications where the original component has worn, broken, or failed to hold proper tension. It restores the operator presence control function required for safe mower operation. Consult your specific Lawn Boy mower's service documentation to confirm fitment before installation.
