Toro Commercial Lawn Mower

Answers

how do you change a belt on a toro commercial 2 cycle lawn mower, and does the blade keeper just pop off?????

when you take the bottom bolt off and remove the blade you see a rectangle keeper does that pry off so i can access the pully


Simple answer, yes. You might want to use some kind of penetrating oil, and then tap it lightly. Remember, this is the crankshaft of the engine.

How do I fix my drive power on my commercial lawn mower?

I have a Toro Mid Size Commercial mower and the drive power is not what it should be. Basically 1st gear and 2nd gear are eqaullly powered and I pretty much have to push the mower to go up hill.


Sounds like the drive belt(s) are worn and slipping.

Why does the grass look uneven when I cut my yard?

I have a 32 inch walk behind commercial lawn mower made by Toro. It seems like the grass looks uneven when I mow. When I cut with my 22 inch regular lawn mower made by John Deere, the grass looks all right. Why does my $500 mower do a better job at cutting than my $4,000 mower?


I also had a problem with this. I have a 61" Bobcat that has three blades, the middle spindle was loose so the blade had a bit of a angle when I cut. You could have the same deal, or you have hit a stone and bent the blade. It also could be you need a blade sharpen..You could also check your height adjustments at your front castor wheels and rear drive wheels..make sure they are the same setting...Good Luck!

Lawn tractor manual transmission vs automatic?

I have three plus acres to mow 1/2 open fields, 1/2 around trees. Would a manual transmission be fine or how would the auto(with cruise control) hold up? I usually get about 10 to 11 years out of the sears lawn tractors before the manual transmission starts to act up...(hard to shift).

from what I have seen the Home despots John Deere looks like a clone of a Toro/sears/cub cadet....I do not have the money for a commercial mower(with a sulky) so, I think either the big box stores,, but I am leaning more towards the Toro dealer, but the Toro looks like a JD clone......thanks for any input...


I would go for the john deere 20 HP automatic. You can adjust your speed with your foot, that makes it easy to mow around trees, bushes, etc. Just make sure you maintain it and it will last a good long while. John deere seems a little pricey but they are good lawn tractors. If you get lucky you might find an old IH cub cadet,they are manuel trans, but never wear out,and are easy to work on. If you go John deere I recommend nothing smaller than 20hp. I have 20hp and cut one acre. It is 6 yrs. old and runs great. Good luck, shop around and you will be surprised at what you can get for under $700.00 (used)
