To start the Toro Recycler 21-inch 20093C Mower, first ensure that the fuel tank is filled with fresh gasoline. Then, press the primer bulb 3 times to allow fuel into the carburetor. Pull the starter handle firmly to start the engine.
If the mower does not start, check for sufficient fuel, ensure the spark plug is properly connected, and verify that the air filter is clean. If the problem persists, consider checking the spark plug for wear or damage and replace it if necessary.
It is recommended to change the oil after the first 5 hours of use, and then after every 25 hours of mowing or at least once a season. Use SAE 30 oil for optimal performance.
Regularly inspect the blade for sharpness and damage. It is recommended to sharpen the blade every 25 hours of use or at least once per season for efficient cutting. Replace the blade if it is bent or severely worn.
After each use, remove grass clippings and debris from the mower deck and blades using a brush or cloth. Avoid using water directly on the engine. For thorough cleaning, use a damp cloth on the exterior surfaces.
To enhance mulching performance, ensure the blade is sharp, and mow when the grass is dry. Adjust the cutting height to avoid cutting more than one-third of the grass blade length at once.
Excessive vibration may be due to an unbalanced blade or debris lodged in the mower deck. Check the blade for balance and ensure it is securely fastened. Clean the deck thoroughly to remove any obstructions.
To adjust the cutting height, locate the height adjustment levers on each wheel. Move the levers to the desired position to raise or lower the mower deck. Ensure all wheels are set to the same height for an even cut.
If uncut strips of grass are left behind, check that the blade is sharp and properly installed. Ensure the mower deck is clean and free of debris, and mow at a slower pace to allow the blade to cut evenly.
For off-season storage, clean the mower thoroughly and drain the fuel tank or add a fuel stabilizer. Change the oil, remove the spark plug, and store the mower in a dry, sheltered location. Cover it to protect against dust and moisture.
