AM134404 Spout Control Input Cable Fits John Deere 44" Snow Blower X340 X500

Spout Control Input Cable for John Deere

This spout control input cable (AM134404) connects the tractor dash lever to the snow blower chute rotator, giving you fingertip control over snow discharge direction on compatible John Deere 44-inch attachments for X340 and X500 models.

Overview

The AM134404 spout control input cable is a direct replacement for the chute direction cable on John Deere 44-inch snow blowers used with X340 and X500 series tractors. This spout control input cable restores smooth, slop-free rotary motion so you can aim the snow where you want it, and its exact OEM-length design makes for a straightforward install without re-routing.

Specs At A Glance

Good To Know

Q: How can I confirm this cable fits my John Deere snow blower? A: Measure your existing cable routing and check that the end fittings match the swaged barrel type; this cable is built for the 44-inch blower on X340 and X500 tractors, but always verify against your serial-number break.

Q: What maintenance keeps the spout control cable working smoothly? A: Lightly oil the exposed inner wire every few uses and inspect the outer jacket for cracks or kinks to prevent moisture ingress and keep the chute rotating freely season after season.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
