To start the Toro Recycler 55-cm 21771 mower, ensure that the fuel tank is filled, the oil level is adequate, and the battery is charged. Pull the starter handle briskly or use the electric start button if equipped.
Check the fuel level, ensure the spark plug is clean and connected, verify the air filter is not clogged, and confirm that the safety handle is fully engaged.
Change the oil after the first 5 hours of use and then every 25 hours of operation or at the beginning of each mowing season.
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.
Use fresh, unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 87 or higher. Avoid using gasoline with more than 10% ethanol.
Turn off the mower and disconnect the spark plug. Use a hose to remove grass clippings and debris from the deck. Avoid using a pressure washer.
Ensure the blade is sharp and balanced, the mower deck is clean, and the grass is not too wet or tall. Adjust the mowing speed if necessary.
Use the mower when the grass is dry, mow regularly to prevent overgrowth, and ensure the mulching blade is sharp and in good condition.
Drain the fuel tank, change the oil, clean the mower thoroughly, and store it in a dry location. Disconnect the battery if applicable.
Disconnect the spark plug wire, use a socket wrench to remove the old spark plug, and install a new one with the correct gap setting. Reconnect the spark plug wire.
