Toro Recycler 21-inch 20329 Operator's Manual

To start the Toro Recycler 21-inch 20329 mower, ensure the fuel tank is filled and the oil level is adequate. Pull the safety handle lever against the handlebar and then pull the starter rope firmly.
If the mower does not start, check the fuel level, ensure the spark plug is connected, and inspect the air filter for clogs. Also, verify the engine switch is set to 'ON'.
Change the oil in your Toro mower after the first 5 hours of use, and then every 50 hours or at least once a season. Use SAE 30 or 10W-30 oil for best performance.
Use fresh unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 87 or higher. Avoid using ethanol blends higher than 10%.
To adjust the cutting height, locate the height adjustment levers on each wheel. Move the levers to your desired height setting, ensuring all wheels are set equally.
Regular maintenance tasks include checking and changing the oil, cleaning or replacing the air filter, sharpening the blade, and inspecting the spark plug.
After each use, clean the mower deck by using a garden hose to spray off grass clippings. Use a scraper to remove stubborn debris. Ensure the engine is off and cool before cleaning.
Excessive vibration can be caused by an unbalanced or damaged blade. Check the blade for damage or wear and replace it if necessary. Ensure it is properly tightened.
To winterize the mower, run the engine until it stops to empty the fuel system, remove the battery (if applicable), clean the mower thoroughly, and store it in a dry place. Consider changing the oil and spark plug before storing.
Uncut strips may be due to a dull blade, incorrect cutting height, or mowing too fast. Sharpen the blade, adjust the height, and mow at a moderate pace for best results.
