Model 20076 , serial# 270002127 2007 Personal Pace Toro The cable does not operate the blade.

Hi gsrs,

Did you check all down the cable and see if the cable is in good shape, not stretched or frayed and connected at both ends where it should be?

Here is a website with a schematic that might help you: http://www.ereplacementparts.com/toro-20076-2700000012709999992007-lawn-mower-parts-c-121776_127291_127767.html

Choose picture I at the site.

I hope this helps. If it does, I'd appreciate a 4 thumbs up. Thanks,

Handie Andie
