how do you change a clutch cable on a flymo quicksilver

Hi, I have the same problem. I have taken the old one out by removing the rear axle ( a screw on each side, unclip the spring and lever the drive belt off the pulley). The black grommet levers out with a screwdriver. Hopefully when the spare arrives it will go back the same way but I am not sure, may have to remove cutter blades and drive belt cover. It is not a simple job! I also think that the bend in the cable is a serious design fault, regardless of the inaccessibility of the cable. Good luck, like you I would be interested to hear from anyone who has actually done the job! Cheers, Martin.
