    Why Toro 74871 blades do not rotate?

      If the blades on your Toro Lawn Mower aren't rotating, it could be due to a worn, loose, or broken mower deck belt, so install a new deck belt. Also, check if the mower deck belt is off the pulley and install the mower 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. Finally, look for a broken or missing idler spring and replace it.

    Why does my Toro 74871 Lawn Mower engine lose power?
    • B
      Brenda GonzalezSep 2, 2025
      Your Toro Lawn Mower engine might be losing power for several reasons. The engine load could be excessive, so try reducing the ground speed. A dirty air cleaner, low oil level in the crankcase, plugged cooling fins and air passages, or a plugged vent hole in the fuel cap could also be the cause. Additionally, check for dirt in the fuel filter.

      Michael SimpsonAug 31, 2025
      If the starter on your Toro Lawn Mower doesn't crank, there are several things you can check: Ensure that the blade control switch (PTO) is disengaged, the parking brake is set, and the drive levers are in the neutral lock position. Also, make sure you are seated. Check if the battery is dead and needs charging, or if the electrical connections are corroded or loose. Finally, inspect the fuse and replace it if blown.

    What causes uneven cutting height on my Toro 74871 Lawn Mower?
    • J
      Jennifer RodgersAug 29, 2025
      Uneven cutting height on your Toro Lawn Mower may result from dull blade(s) (sharpen the blade(s)), bent cutting blade(s) (install new cutting blade(s)), or a mower deck that is not level (level mower deck from side-to-side and front-to-rear). Other causes include a dirty mower underside (clean the underside) or incorrect tire pressure (adjust the tire pressure). For a bent blade spindle, contact an Authorized Service Dealer.

    • E
      Earl KennedyAug 25, 2025
      Uneven cutting height on your Toro Lawn Mower can be attributed to several factors. The blades might not be sharp or could be bent. The mower deck may not be level from side-to-side and front-to-rear. Also, check if the underside of the mower is dirty and clean it if necessary. Finally, ensure the tire pressure is correct and adjust if needed.

    Why Toro 74871 engine will not start?
    • K
      Kevin TrujilloAug 23, 2025
      There are several reasons why your Toro Lawn Mower engine might not start. It could be due to an empty fuel tank, a closed fuel shutoff valve, or a low oil level in the crankcase. The throttle and choke may not be in the correct position. Other potential causes include a dirty fuel filter, dirt, water, or stale fuel in the fuel system, a dirty air cleaner, or a faulty spark plug. Also, check the spark plug wire connection and the seat switch indicator. Clean connector terminals thoroughly with electrical contact cleaner, apply dielectric grease and reconnect if electrical connections are corroded, loose or faulty.
