The Honda 06540-VG3-B01 is a genuine OEM Clutch Cable Kit designed for the HRS216 lawn mower. As a direct Honda OEM component, this kit is built to match the original cable routing, length, and hardware specifications of the HRS216. If the self-propel or blade engagement feels sluggish, stretched, or unresponsive on your mower, replacing the clutch cable with part number 06540-VG3-B01 is the correct first step to restoring full control.
Key Features
- OEM Cable Integrity — Genuine Honda construction means the cable core and housing match the original pull tension and travel distance, so engagement is crisp and consistent from the lever to the drive mechanism.
- Direct HRS216 Fitment — Engineered specifically for the HRS216 lawn mower; the cable end fittings, sheath length, and anchor points align with the original routing without cutting or adapting.
- Restores Full Drive or Blade Response — A stretched or frayed cable causes erratic or lost engagement; this replacement brings clutch actuation back to factory feel.
- Verify Your Serial Number — Honda updates parts at specific serial breaks, so confirm your HRS216 serial number against the fitment table before ordering to ensure this kit is correct for your unit.
The clutch cable on a walk-behind lawn mower transfers the mechanical input from the operator's bail handle or drive lever to the blade or self-propel clutch. When the cable is pulled, it engages the drive system; when released, it disengages it, stopping forward motion or blade rotation. Over time the cable core can stretch, fray, or snap, and the outer housing can kink or crack — any of these failures causes sluggish, partial, or completely lost engagement. Replacing the Clutch Cable Kit on the HRS216 restores precise, predictable control so the mower operates as intended.
