I just bought a Meteor snow blower, the chute is operated by handcrank and cable. The blower had to be shipped to me with the cable and chute removed. I cannot figure out how to attach the cable system to make it turn the chute. Can someone out there please take a photo of their cable assembly (I would think it wouldnt' matter what brand of snow blower as long as it was cable operated) and email it to me?! I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks!

Here is the cable setup on my 60" Meteor. It was originally a hand crank, then converted to hydraulic, then back to handcrank again so the crank isn't original, but the concept should be the same. Cable is fixed on the chute on the side directly opposite the crank when the chute is pointing straight back.The ends of the cable wrap around the shaft of the crank handle -one clockwise, one counterclockwise so that one end unwinds as the other winds up. Hope this helps
