Why is the cutting height uneven on my Toro Lawn Mower?
- C
  Carrie ButlerAug 29, 2025
  Uneven cutting height can be caused by several factors: * The blade(s) is not sharp, so sharpen them. * A cutting blade(s) is/are bent, so install a new one. * The mower is not level, so level it from side-to-side and front-to-rear. * The underside of the mower deck is dirty, so clean it. * The tire pressure is incorrect, so adjust it. * The spacers are in the wrong location, so position them under hairpin cotters. * The tips of adjacent blades are at an uneven cutting height, so replace the blades or spindles and/or check for damage to mower deck.

Why won't my Toro Lawn Mower engine start, starts hard, or fails to keep running?

  John BrownAug 28, 2025
  Several factors can prevent your engine from starting or staying running. Start by checking if the fuel tank is empty and fill it if needed. Ensure the fuel-shutoff valve is open. Check the oil level in the crankcase and add oil if it's low. Make sure the throttle is positioned midway between the SLOW and FAST settings. Replace the fuel filter if it's dirty. Clean or replace the air-cleaner element if it is dirty. Check the spark-plug wire connection and adjust or replace the spark plug if it's fouled or improperly gapped. Finally, check the seat-switch indicator and replace the seat if necessary and ensure that electrical connections are in good condition.

Why does my Toro Z Master 8000 Lawn Mower starter not crank?
- S
  Steven FrancisAug 27, 2025
  If the starter on your Toro Lawn Mower doesn't crank, several factors could be at play. Ensure the blade-control switch is disengaged, the parking brake is engaged, and the motion-control levers are in the NEUTRAL-LOCK position. You also need to be sitting in the operator’s seat. A dead battery, corroded or loose electrical connections, or a blown fuse can also prevent the starter from cranking. Charge the battery, check the electrical connections, and replace the fuse if necessary. If the problem persists, a relay or switch might be damaged, and you should contact an Authorized Service Dealer.

  If the blades on your Toro Lawn Mower are not rotating, check the belt tension or replace the belt. Also, connect the PTO shaft and inspect the belt for damage. Install the belt and check the adjusting shafts and belt guides for the correct position.

  If the starter on your Toro Lawn Mower isn't cranking, make sure the blade-control switch (PTO) is disengaged and the parking brake is engaged. Also, ensure the motion-control levers are in the NEUTRAL-LOCK position and that you are sitting on the seat. Try charging the battery and checking the electrical connections. If those steps don't work, replace the fuse. If the issue persists, contact an Authorized Service Dealer.

  Rachel LambAug 26, 2025
  If your Toro Lawn Mower's engine is having trouble starting, running, or staying on, there are several things you can check. First, ensure the fuel tank is full and the crankcase has enough oil. Position the throttle control midway between the slow and fast settings. You might also need to replace the fuel filter or clean/replace the air-cleaner element. Check the seat-switch indicator, replacing the seat if required. Inspect the electrical connections, clean the terminals, apply dielectric grease, and reconnect. Finally, adjust or replace the spark plug and check its wire connection.

  If your Toro Lawn Mower engine is having trouble starting or staying running, you can try the following: 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 and replace the fuel filter. Also, clean or replace the air-cleaner element, check the seat-switch indicator (replacing the seat if necessary), check the electrical connections for good contact by cleaning the connector terminals thoroughly with electrical-contact cleaner and applying dielectric grease, and adjust or replace the spark plug, checking the spark-plug wire connection.
