    What to do if my Toro 72946 Lawn Mower starter doesn't crank?
    • A
      amber31Sep 18, 2025
      If the starter on your Toro Lawn Mower doesn't crank, try the following: Ensure the blade-control switch is disengaged, the parking brake is engaged, and the motion-control levers are in the NEUTRAL-LOCK position. Also, make sure you are sitting in the operator’s seat. If these aren't the issue, check the battery and charge if necessary. Inspect the electrical connections for corrosion or looseness and ensure good contact. Replace any blown fuses. If the problem persists, it could be a damaged relay or switch, in which case you should contact an Authorized Service Dealer.

    What does it mean if the oil-pressure light is on in my Toro 72946?
    • S
      Susan VillanuevaSep 23, 2025
      If the oil-pressure light is on and the engine rpm is low on your Toro Lawn Mower, the engine-control unit has likely limited engine rpm, known as “limp” mode. Let the engine cool, then check the engine-oil level. If the level is above the “add” line, contact an Authorized Toro Service Dealer.

    What to do if my Toro 72946 does not drive?
    • J
      Jessica LamSep 12, 2025
      If your Toro Lawn Mower doesn't drive, first check that the bypass valves are closed tight. If not, tighten them. Also, inspect the pump belt for wear, looseness, or breakage and change the belt if needed. Ensure the pump belt is correctly positioned on the pulley. Replace the spring if the idler spring is broken or missing. Finally, verify the hydraulic fluid level; add hydraulic fluid to the reservoirs if it is low, or let it cool down if it is too hot.

    Why aren't the blades rotating on my Toro 72946?
    • B
      brownkellySep 1, 2025
      If the blades on your Toro Lawn Mower aren't rotating, check for a damaged, worn, loose, or broken mower deck belt and install a new deck belt if needed. If the mower deck belt is off the pulley, install it back on the deck pulley and check the idler pulley, idler arm, and spring for correct position and function. Inspect the pump drive belt for wear, looseness, or breakage; check the belt tension or install a new belt. Replace the idler spring if it is broken or missing.

    How to troubleshoot uneven cutting height on my Toro Lawn Mower?
    • A
      Amy GrahamSep 2, 2025
      An uneven cutting height on your Toro Lawn Mower could be due to several factors. The blade(s) might not be sharp, so sharpen them. Alternatively, the cutting blade(s) could be bent, so install new cutting blade(s). The mower deck might not be level, so level the mower deck from side-to-side and front-to-rear. The underside of the mower could be dirty, so clean it. Also, the tire pressure might not be correct, so adjust it.
