Description
Overview:
This is a genuine Stihl/Viking wheel drive control cable for self‐propelled walk‐behind lawn mowers. It links the drive lever to the transmission so the wheels engage smoothly under load. Built as a Bowden‐type cable with a high‐tensile steel inner wire and a flexible black outer sheath, it is designed for consistent power transfer and long service life in regular mowing conditions. It is a direct replacement for worn, stretched, or broken cables on Stihl/Viking models including MB 4.1 RTP and RM 4.0 RTP. Using the correct OEM cable helps maintain reliable self‐propel performance, reduces slippage, and restores positive drive engagement. Manufacturer Part Number: 6383 700 7533.
