  If your Toro Lawn Mower isn't driving, check the following: ensure the bypass valve is closed tightly. If not, tighten it. Inspect the drive or pump belt for wear, looseness, or breakage; replace the belt if necessary. Also, check if the drive or pump belt is off a pulley and change the belt. Look for a broken or missing idler spring and replace it if needed. Finally, verify the hydraulic fluid level; add fluid if it's low or let it cool down if it's too hot.

  If the blades on your Toro Mower aren't rotating, it could be due to a few reasons. Check the drive belt for wear, looseness, or breakage, and ensure proper belt tension. If the drive belt is off the pulley, reinstall it and check the adjusting shafts and belt guides for correct positioning. Inspect the deck belt for wear, looseness, or breakage, and install a new deck belt if necessary.

Why does my Toro 74253 Lawn Mower engine lose power?
- A
  Amy HarveyAug 29, 2025
  Your Toro Lawn Mower's engine may be losing power due to several factors. The engine load could be excessive, so reduce the ground speed. A dirty air cleaner can cause this, so clean the air cleaner element. Check if the oil level in the crankcase is low and add oil if needed. Also, ensure the cooling fins and air passages above the engine are not plugged; remove any obstructions. The vent hole in the fuel cap might be plugged, so clean or replace the fuel cap. Finally, dirt in the fuel filter can cause power loss, so replace the fuel filter. If these steps don't help, the issue might be dirt, water, or stale fuel in the fuel system, and you should contact an Authorized Service Dealer.

Why does my Toro Mower engine not start or keep running?
- D
  Daniel RogersAug 27, 2025
  If your Toro Mower engine won't start, starts with difficulty, or frequently stalls, start by checking the fuel level. An empty tank is a common cause. Next, inspect the air cleaner; a dirty air cleaner element can impede engine performance, so clean or replace it. Also, check the fuel filter for dirt and replace it if necessary. If the problem persists, there may be dirt, water, or stale fuel in the fuel system, in which case you should contact an Authorized Service Dealer.

Why won't the starter crank on my Toro Mower?
- K
  Kristine Ball MDAug 26, 2025
  If the starter on your Toro Mower isn't cranking, several factors could be at play. First, ensure that the blade control (PTO) is disengaged and the parking brake is properly set. Confirm that the operator is seated correctly. A dead battery can also prevent the starter from cranking, so ensure that the battery is charged. Check all electrical connections for corrosion or looseness, and replace any blown fuses. If these steps don't resolve the issue, the relay or switch might be defective, and you should contact an Authorized Service Dealer.

Why is my Toro 74253 cutting height uneven?
- T
  Tyler LoganAug 25, 2025
  Uneven cutting height on your Toro Lawn Mower can be attributed to several factors. Check if the blade(s) are not sharp and sharpen them if needed. Bent cutting blade(s) can also cause this issue, so install new cutting blade(s). Ensure the mower is level from side-to-side and front-to-rear. A dirty underside of the mower can interfere with cutting, so clean it. Additionally, verify that the tire pressure is correct and adjust it accordingly. If the blade spindle is bent, contact an Authorized Service Dealer.
