      If the starter on your Toro Lawn Mower isn't cranking, check the following: Ensure the blade-control switch is disengaged. Make sure the motion-control levers are in the PARK position. Verify that the battery isn't dead by charging it. Check the electrical connections for corrosion or looseness, ensuring good contact. Also, inspect the fuse and replace it if blown. If the problem continues, a relay or switch may be damaged, and you should contact an Authorized Service Dealer.
