To start the Toro 21-inch 27500 Mower, ensure the fuel valve is open, set the throttle to 'Choke' for a cold start, or 'Run' for a warm start, and pull the starter handle briskly.
Regular maintenance includes checking and changing the oil, cleaning or replacing the air filter, inspecting the spark plug, sharpening the blade, and cleaning the undercarriage.
Check the fuel level, ensure the spark plug is connected, verify that the air filter is clean, and make sure the safety features are properly engaged.
Toro recommends using SAE 30 or SAE 10W-30 oil for optimal performance in most conditions.
The blade should be sharpened at least once a season or more frequently if the lawn has debris or the grass is particularly tough.
To adjust the cutting height, locate the height adjustment levers on each wheel and move them to the desired height setting. Ensure all wheels are set to the same height for even cutting.
Check for debris lodged in the blade area, inspect the blade for damage or imbalance, and ensure all fasteners are tight. If the problem persists, consult a professional.
Disconnect the spark plug wire, tilt the mower with the air filter up, and use a hose or scraper to remove grass clippings and debris from the undercarriage.
Regular maintenance, such as keeping the air filter clean and the blade sharp, along with using the correct fuel type, can improve fuel efficiency.
Always wear appropriate footwear and eye protection, clear the lawn of debris before mowing, and ensure all safety guards are in place. Never refuel the mower while it is running or hot.
