What is the proper way to clean the mower deck on my Toro TimeCutter SS 4260?

After each use, remove grass clippings and debris from the mower deck using a brush or compressed air. For a more thorough cleaning, use a hose with a moderate spray setting to wash away any remaining debris, making sure not to saturate the engine or electrical components.

How do I adjust the cutting height on my Toro TimeCutter SS 4260?

To adjust the cutting height, locate the height adjustment lever, typically on the mower's fender. Move the lever to the desired position, which corresponds to the cutting height indicated on the mower. Ensure the mower is on a flat surface when making adjustments.
