What to do if my Toro 74312 Lawn Mower machine does not drive?
- M
  Mckenzie GoodmanSep 12, 2025
  If your Toro Lawn Mower isn't driving, start by checking if the bypass valve is tightly closed; tighten it if necessary. Also, inspect the drive or pump belt for wear, looseness, or breakage, and replace it if needed. Ensure the drive or pump belt is properly on the pulley. Replace the idler spring if it's broken or missing. Lastly, verify that the hydraulic fluid level is adequate and not too hot; add fluid or allow it to cool down if necessary.

Why won't my Toro 74312 starter crank?
- K
  Kristy SawyerAug 25, 2025
  If your Toro Lawn Mower's starter isn't cranking, several safety mechanisms might be the cause. Ensure the blade-control switch (PTO) is disengaged, the parking brake is engaged, and the motion-control levers are in the NEUTRAL-LOCK position. Also, make sure the operator is seated. A dead battery, corroded or loose electrical connections, or a blown fuse can also prevent the starter from cranking. To resolve some of these issues, move the blade-control switch (PTO) to the disengaged position, engage the parking brake, ensure that the motion-control levers are in the NEUTRAL-LOCK position, sit on the seat, charge the battery, check the electrical connections for good contact, and replace the fuse. In the case of a worn or damaged relay or switch, contact an Authorized Service Dealer.

  If your Toro Lawn Mower's engine is having trouble starting, running, or staying on, there are several things you can check. First, ensure the fuel tank is full and the crankcase has enough oil. Position the throttle control midway between the slow and fast settings. You might also need to replace the fuel filter or clean/replace the air-cleaner element. Check the seat-switch indicator, replacing the seat if required. Inspect the electrical connections, clean the terminals, apply dielectric grease, and reconnect. Finally, adjust or replace the spark plug and check its wire connection.

  To address an uneven cutting height with your Toro Lawn Mower, begin by sharpening the blade(s) or installing new cutting blade(s).
