Ensure the mower is on a level surface. Check that the parking brake is engaged. Turn the ignition key to the 'Start' position, and release it once the engine begins to run.
Check the fuel level, ensure the battery is charged, and inspect the spark plug for wear or damage. Make sure all safety switches are engaged.
Run the engine for a few minutes to warm the oil. Turn off the engine and remove the oil drain plug. Drain the oil into a suitable container, replace the plug, and refill with new oil.
Toro recommends using SAE 10W-30 motor oil for most conditions. Check the owner's manual for specific recommendations based on your environment.
Remove the spark plug wire to prevent accidental starting. Tilt the mower and use a wrench to remove the blade. Sharpen using a file or grinder, ensuring the blade is balanced before reattaching.
Excessive vibration may be caused by an unbalanced blade, loose parts, or a damaged belt. Inspect these components and tighten or replace as necessary.
Locate the height adjustment lever on the side of the mower deck. Move the lever to the desired setting to adjust the cutting height. Ensure both sides are set equally for an even cut.
Regular maintenance includes checking and changing the oil, inspecting the air filter, sharpening the blades, checking tire pressure, and inspecting belts and cables for wear.
Uncut patches may be due to dull blades, incorrect cutting height, or a clogged deck. Sharpen the blades, adjust the height, and clean the deck to improve cutting performance.
Turn off the engine and disconnect the spark plug. Use a garden hose to wash away grass clippings and debris. For stubborn debris, use a scraper or brush. Allow the deck to dry before use.
