To start the Toro Recycler 48-cm 20801B mower, ensure the fuel tank is filled and the spark plug is connected. Pull the starter handle firmly while holding down the safety bar.
Use SAE 30 oil for temperatures above 32°F (0°C) and SAE 5W-30 or 10W-30 for temperatures below 32°F (0°C).
Change the oil after the first 5 hours of use and then every 25 hours of operation or at the start of each mowing season.
Check if the fuel tank is filled, the spark plug is connected, and the air filter is clean. Also, ensure the safety bar is engaged while starting.
To sharpen the blade, disconnect the spark plug, remove the blade, and use a file or bench grinder to sharpen it evenly. Reattach securely after sharpening.
Ensure the blade is sharp and properly balanced. Check the mower deck for clogs and adjust the cutting height if necessary.
After each use, disconnect the spark plug and use a brush or compressed air to remove grass clippings from the deck and other components.
The correct spark plug gap for the Toro Recycler 48-cm 20801B mower is 0.030 inches (0.76 mm).
Adjust the cutting height by moving the height adjustment levers located on each wheel to the desired position.
To winterize, empty the fuel tank or add a stabilizer, change the oil, clean the deck, and store the mower in a dry place. Disconnect the spark plug for safety.
