Toro 21-inch 20755 Operator's Manual

To start the Toro 21-inch 20755 Mower, first ensure the fuel tank is filled and the oil level is adequate. Then, press the primer bulb three times, hold the safety bar against the handle, and pull the starter rope briskly.
If the mower won't start, check the fuel level and ensure fresh fuel is used. Inspect the spark plug for wear or damage and replace if necessary. Make sure the air filter is clean and not clogged.
Change the oil after the first five hours of use, then every 25 hours of operation or at least once per mowing season. Use SAE 30 oil for optimal performance.
To sharpen the blade, remove it from the mower and secure it in a vice. Use a file or a sharpening stone to sharpen the blade at the original angle. Balance the blade before reinstalling it to prevent vibration.
Adjust the cutting height by repositioning the wheel height adjusters on each wheel. Move the lever forward to raise the height and backward to lower it. Ensure all wheels are set to the same height.
Excessive vibration can be caused by an unbalanced blade or loose parts. Check the blade for sharpness and balance. Tighten any loose bolts or screws, and inspect the mower for damaged components.
To improve grass discharge, ensure the grass bag is not full and the discharge chute is clear of obstructions. Mow when the grass is dry, and keep the blade sharp for better cutting performance.
To clean the mower deck, ensure the mower is off and disconnect the spark plug for safety. Use a scraper or a hose to remove grass clippings and debris from under the deck. Dry the deck thoroughly to prevent rust.
For winter storage, empty the fuel tank and run the engine until it stops to clear the carburetor. Change the oil, clean the mower thoroughly, and store it in a dry, cool place. Disconnect the spark plug for safety.
To replace the spark plug, disconnect the spark plug wire and remove the old plug using a spark plug wrench. Install the new spark plug, ensuring it is gapped correctly, and reconnect the spark plug wire.
