  theresa21Sep 12, 2025
  If the blades on your Toro Lawn Mower do not rotate, it could be due to a damaged, worn, loose, or broken mower deck belt; install a new deck belt. Ensure the mower deck belt is properly installed on the deck pulley, checking the idler pulley, idler arm, and spring for correct position and function. Also, a worn, loose, or broken pump drive belt can cause this issue, so check the belt tension or install a new belt. Finally, check the idler spring and replace it if it is broken or missing.

Why Toro Lawn Mower blades do not rotate?
- C
  Christopher McgrathAug 27, 2025
  If the blades on your Toro Lawn Mower aren't rotating, it could be due to a worn, loose, or broken mower deck belt; in this case, install a new deck belt. Another possibility is that the mower deck belt is off the pulley; reinstall it and check the idler pulley, idler arm, and spring for correct position and function. Also, check the pump drive belt for wear, looseness, or breakage, and adjust the belt tension or install a new belt. Finally, inspect the idler spring and replace it if it's broken or missing.
