Description
Overview:
This Upper Clutch Cable is a genuine Stihl replacement for the RM545.1 series walk-behind lawn mowers, including the RM545.1VE and RM545.1VR. It is a Bowden-style control cable with a strong steel inner wire and a durable, polymer-coated outer sheath to protect against wear, moisture, and dirt. The cable links the operator's clutch lever on the handlebar to the mower's drive mechanism, providing smooth engagement and disengagement of the self‐propelled function. Built to OEM specification (OEM No. 6340 700 7504), it offers precise fit and correct end connections for reliable operation. Use it to restore consistent drive control and maintain safe, predictable handling during regular mowing on domestic lawns or commercial grounds.
