To start the Toro Wheel Horse 70122 Mower, first ensure the mower is on a flat surface. Engage the parking brake, set the throttle to 'fast', and turn the ignition key to start the engine.
If the mower won't start, check the fuel level, ensure the spark plug is connected, and verify the battery is charged. Also, make sure the PTO switch is off and the parking brake is engaged.
Change the oil after every 50 hours of use or at least once per mowing season. Use SAE 30 oil for optimal performance.
The recommended tire pressure is 12-15 PSI for the front tires and 10-12 PSI for the rear tires. Regularly check and adjust to these levels to ensure proper traction and performance.
To sharpen the mower blades, remove them following the manual's instructions. Use a bench grinder or a sharpening tool to sharpen the blades evenly. Ensure they are balanced before reinstallation.
Before storing for winter, clean the mower, change the oil, empty the fuel tank or add a stabilizer, and remove the battery. Store in a dry, covered area to protect it from the elements.
To clean the mower deck, turn off the mower and disconnect the spark plug. Use a garden hose to spray off grass clippings and debris. Scrape off stubborn debris with a plastic scraper.
If the mower cuts unevenly, check the tire pressure, ensure the blades are sharp and properly balanced, and verify that the deck is level. Adjust as necessary to improve cutting performance.
If the mower vibrates excessively, check for loose bolts, worn-out belts, or unbalanced blades. Tighten any loose components and replace or balance the blades to reduce vibration.
The recommended maintenance schedule includes checking the oil and air filter before each use, sharpening blades and changing oil every 50 hours, and cleaning the deck and checking belts seasonally.
