A cantilevered leaf spring is formed at its proximal end to the housing of a power equipment unit. The distal end of the spring carries a bushing which engages a control cable for operating components of the unit. The proximal end of the spring is adjustably secured to the housing to impart a desired spring force to the cable so as to remove slack therefrom and to properly tension the cable.

A snow blower is provided with cutting devices which are housed within, but project beyond, a housing provided for the blower's auger. As the cutting devices engage snow during the blower's advance, the cutting devices move in a direction which tends to urge the forward portion of the blower downwardly.

A remote, electrical steering system for marine vehicles including an electrical motor operable by a control and power circuit to rotate a drive screw having a screw connection to a nut in a drive tube for moving the drive tube in translation to cause steering movement of a motor-rudder with the control circuit sensing various fault conditions for placing the electrical motor in a brake condition to inhibit inadvertent steering and with the screw and nut connection resisting backlash from the motor-rudder to inhibit inadvertent steering and isolate the electrical motor and associated gearing from backlash loads.
