Why does my Toro 74947 Lawn Mower not drive?
- A
  aarontaylorSep 12, 2025
  If your Toro Lawn Mower isn't driving, check if the bypass valves are closed tightly. If not, tighten them. A worn, loose, or broken pump belt can also cause this issue, so replace the belt. If the pump belt is off a pulley, replace the belt. A broken or missing idler spring can prevent driving, so replace the spring. Also, check the hydraulic oil level; if it's low, add hydraulic oil to the reservoirs, or let it cool down if it's too hot.

Why won't my Toro 74947 Lawn Mower engine start, starts hard, or fails to keep running?
- B
  Brenda BakerAug 26, 2025
  If your Toro Lawn Mower engine will not start, starts hard, or fails to keep running, fill the fuel tank, open the fuel shutoff valve and add oil to the crankcase. Ensure that the throttle control is midway between the “SLOW” and “FAST” positions. Also, replace the fuel filter, clean or replace the air cleaner element, check the seat switch indicator (replace the seat if needed), check the electrical connections for good contact (clean the connector terminals thoroughly with electrical contact cleaner, apply dielectric grease, and reconnect), clean, adjust, or replace the spark plug and check the spark plug wire connection. If problems persist, contact an Authorized Service Dealer.

What to do if the Toro Control Unit shows low oil pressure?
- A
  Alejandro TurnerSep 23, 2025
  If the Toro Control Unit indicates low oil pressure, cycle the key switch to clear the fault and check the oil level. If the engine temperature is high, also clean any debris from the engine and inspect the engine fan. Note that the engine oil pressure may be below the limit or the engine temperature may be high.

Why does the starter not crank on my Toro Lawn Mower?
- A
  Amy HooverSep 13, 2025
  If the starter on your Toro Lawn Mower does not crank, ensure that the blade control switch (PTO) is disengaged. Also, set the parking brake, ensure that the drive levers are in the neutral lock position, and sit on the seat. You may also need to charge the battery, check the electrical connections for good contact, or replace the fuse. If problems persist, contact an Authorized Service Dealer.

What to do if the oil-temperature light is on and the engine rpm is low on my Toro 74947?
- J
  Jason YoungSep 5, 2025
  If the oil-temperature light is on and the engine rpm is low on your Toro Lawn Mower, it may be because the engine-control unit has limited engine rpm, known as “limp” mode. Check the engine-oil level. If the level is above the “add” line, contact an Authorized Toro Service Dealer.

Why does the clutch not engage on my Toro 74947 Lawn Mower?
- M
  Marcus PattersonSep 6, 2025
  If the clutch does not engage on your Toro Lawn Mower, it could be due to: * A blown fuse; replace the fuse. * Low voltage supply at the clutch; check the coil resistance, battery charge, charging system, and wiring connections, and replace components if necessary. * A damaged coil; replace the clutch. * Inadequate current supply; repair or replace the clutch lead wire or electrical system. Clean the connector contacts. * The rotor/armature air gap being too large; remove the shim or replace the clutch.

What to do if the LED status light comes on in my Toro Lawn Mower?
- A
  aguerreroSep 18, 2025
  If the LED status light on your Toro Lawn Mower comes on, it could be due to several reasons. The engine might be too hot, in which case you should shut it off and let it cool. Old fuel in the tank could also be the culprit, so try using new fuel. Ensure the fuel-shutoff valve is completely open. Check and clean the air cleaner, replacing it if necessary. Also, make sure the battery is charged or replace it if needed. Finally, check and replace any blown fuses.
