    What causes the blades to not rotate on my Toro Lawn Mower?

      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.

      gbaileyAug 30, 2025
      If your Toro Lawn Mower is mowing with an uneven cutting height, several factors could be responsible. Ensure the blades are sharp; if not, sharpen them. Bent cutting blades can also cause this, so install new ones. Check if the mower deck is level from side-to-side and front-to-rear, and adjust as needed. A dirty underside of the mower can interfere with cutting, so clean it. Also, verify that the tire pressure is correct. For a bent blade spindle, contact an Authorized Service Dealer.

    What to do if the clutch on my Toro 74960 Lawn Mower does not engage?
    • K
      Kevin StephensSep 18, 2025
      If the clutch on your Toro Lawn Mower does not engage, the fuse could be blown, so replace the fuse. Check the coil resistance, battery charge, charging system, and wiring connections, and replace components if necessary. There might be low voltage supply at the clutch, so check the coil resistance, battery charge, charging system, and wiring connections and replace parts if necessary. There could be inadequate current supply, so repair or replace the clutch lead wire or electrical system and clean the connector contacts. The rotor/armature air gap might be too large, so remove the shim or replace the clutch.
