Abstract
A control lever assembly for a lawn mower has a main lever and an auxiliary lever pivotably mounted on lawn mower handle. The main lever is operatively connected through spring biased wire to tend to open a clutch and apply a brake for a rotary cutter of the lawn mower. The auxiliary lever when manually held against the mower handle pushes a resilient arm on the main lever out of engagement with a first stop on the body, thereby automatically causing the main lever to connect the clutch and disengage the brake. A spring biased second movable stop on the auxiliary lever is received in a recess in the main lever to detent the main lever in the locked position for operation of the mower. When the auxiliary lever is released manually by the operator, the second movable stop carried thereby is retracted out of the recess on the main lever to automatically return the wire to disconnect the clutch and engage the brake.
