A cable control lever apparatus is provided for use in a walk-behind lawnmower. The lawnmower includes a mower deck, a handle bar connected to the deck for permitting walk-behind operation of the mower, and a pair of control cables supported for translational movement relative to the handle bar. The handle bar including a pair of laterally spaced side arms, and an end bar extending between the side arms and connecting them together. Each side arm includes a transverse hole aligned with the hole in the other arm for receiving a bail formed of a shape corresponding to the shape of the handle bar. The bail includes opposed out-turned ends sized for receipt in the holes in the handle bar to permit relative pivotal movement of the bail between a non-actuated position spaced from the end bar of the handle bar and an actuated position against the end bar. The bail is connected to one of the cables so that movement of the bail is transmitted to the cable. A lever is supported for pivotal movement on one of the out-turned ends of the bail between the bail and the handle bar so that when the bail is in the actuated position, the lever can be pivoted about the one out-turned end of the bail between a non-actuated position and an actuated position. The lever includes structure for retaining the lever in the actuated position, and for releasing the lever when the bail moves to the non-actuated position, allowing the lever to move to the non-actuated position.
