Toro Wheel Horse 70184 Operator's Manual

The Toro Wheel Horse 70184 mower should undergo maintenance every 25 hours of operation or at least once per mowing season. This includes checking oil levels, inspecting the air filter, sharpening blades, and checking tire pressure.
If the mower won't start, check the battery connections and charge if necessary. Ensure the fuel tank has fresh gasoline and the fuel valve is open. Inspect the spark plug for wear or damage and replace if needed.
For optimal performance, use SAE 30 oil above 32°F, and for temperatures below 32°F, use SAE 5W-30 oil. Always refer to the owner's manual for specific oil recommendations.
Regularly inspect the blades for nicks and dullness. Sharpen the blades every 25 hours of use or at the start of each mowing season. Always disconnect the spark plug before performing blade maintenance.
To adjust the cutting height, locate the height adjustment lever near the wheel and move it to the desired setting. Ensure all four wheels are set to the same height for an even cut.
Excessive vibration may be due to unbalanced blades or loose components. Check and tighten all bolts and nuts, and inspect the blades for damage or imbalance. Replace or service as necessary.
After each use, clean the deck by scraping off grass clippings and debris. Use a hose with a spray nozzle to remove any remaining buildup, ensuring the mower is off and the spark plug is disconnected.
To improve fuel efficiency, regularly maintain the engine, keep the blades sharp, avoid mowing wet grass, and adjust the mowing speed to conditions. Proper tire pressure also contributes to better fuel economy.
Always wear protective eyewear and footwear, clear the mowing area of debris, avoid mowing on steep slopes, and never bypass safety features. Familiarize yourself with the operator's manual for complete safety guidelines.
To store the mower, clean it thoroughly, drain the fuel or add a fuel stabilizer, remove the battery and store it in a cool, dry place, and cover the mower to protect it from dust and moisture.
