Why does my Toro 74722 engine not start?
- J
  Julie FreemanAug 18, 2025
  Your Toro Lawn Mower might not be starting due to several reasons. Check if the fuel tank is empty and fill it if needed. A dirty air cleaner can also cause this issue, so clean or replace it. Ensure the spark plug wire(s) is securely connected to the spark plug. Inspect the spark plug(s) for damage or incorrect gap and replace if necessary. Also, a clogged fuel filter can prevent the engine from starting, so replace it if it's dirty. If there is incorrect fuel in the fuel tank, drain the tank and replace the fuel with the proper type. Finally, ensure that the oil level in the crankcase is adequate, adding oil if it's low.

Why is my Toro Lawn Mower engine losing power?

  lindaromeroAug 23, 2025
  If your Toro Lawn Mower engine is losing power, consider these potential causes: excessive engine load, which can be resolved by reducing ground speed. A dirty air cleaner can restrict airflow, so clean it. Low oil level in the crankcase can also cause power loss, so add oil. Check for obstructions in the cooling fins and air passages and remove them. Inspect the spark plug(s) for damage or incorrect gap and replace if necessary. If there is incorrect fuel in the fuel tank, drain the tank and replace the fuel with the proper type. Finally, if the fuel filter is dirty, replace it.

What to do if my Toro Lawn Mower cutting height is uneven?

  ellisdianaAug 26, 2025
  If your Toro Lawn Mower is cutting unevenly, several factors could be responsible. Start by checking if the blade(s) is sharp; if not, sharpen them. Also, inspect the cutting blade(s) for bending and replace if necessary. Ensure the mower is level from side to side and front to rear. Verify that the anti-scalp wheel is set correctly and adjust its height if needed. Clean the underside of the mower deck, as accumulated debris can affect cutting performance. Check and adjust the tire pressure to the correct levels.

Why aren't the blades rotating on my Toro 74722 Lawn Mower?

  Terry YoungAug 28, 2025
  If the blades on your Toro Lawn Mower aren't rotating, it could be due to a worn, loose, or broken drive belt, which would need to be replaced. Another possibility is that the drive belt is off the pulley; if so, install the drive belt and check the adjusting shafts and belt guides for the correct position. The mower belt may also be worn, loose, or broken, requiring replacement.
