  If the starter on your Toro Lawn Mower isn't cranking, start by ensuring the blade-control switch is disengaged. Also, make sure the motion-control levers are in the PARK position. Check the battery and charge it if it's dead. Inspect the electrical connections for corrosion or looseness, ensuring they have good contact. Replace the fuse if it's blown. If these steps don't solve the problem, a relay or switch may be damaged, requiring you to contact an Authorized Service Dealer.

  Uneven cutting height on your Toro Lawn Mower can be caused by dull blades (sharpen them) or bent cutting blades (replace them). Ensure the mower is level from side-to-side and front-to-rear. Check the anti-scalp wheel settings and adjust their height as needed. Clean any dirt from the underside of the mower. Also, verify and adjust the tire pressure. If a blade spindle is bent, contact an Authorized Service Dealer.

  If your Toro Lawn Mower engine won't start, starts with difficulty, or stalls, several factors could be at play. Make sure the fuel tank isn't empty by filling it. If your model has a choke, ensure it's turned on. A dirty air cleaner can also cause issues, so clean or replace it. Check the spark plug wire(s) to ensure they are correctly connected, and inspect the spark plug(s) for damage or incorrect gap, replacing if necessary. Also, ensure that the fuel filter is clean, and the fuel tank has the correct fuel type. Finally, check the oil level and add oil if it's low.
