Product Description
The TORO 115-4579 is a 2-bail brake cable designed as a direct OEM replacement for Toro walk-behind mower applications. The brake cable connects the operator presence bail handle to the blade brake or drive brake mechanism, allowing the operator to safely disengage blade or drive motion when the bail is released.
