ABSTRACT:
Apparatuses and methods are provided for controlling a self-propelled machine, such as a lawn mowing machine, including a housing, a handle attached to the housing, and a prime mover attached to the housing with a variable speed transmission for propelling the mowing machine. A variable speed adjustable twist control is provided and can include an elongate body moveable in a twisting manner and an adjustable bracket lockably adapted to the elongate body for twisting with the elongate body and the adjustable bracket having an inner channel adapted for guiding a cable control connector operatively connected to the variable speed transmission through a cable for controlling the variable speed transmission, whereby self-propelled speed of the mowing machine can be controlled by operating the adjustable twist control.
