  Uneven cutting height on your Toro Lawn Mower can stem from several issues. Start by sharpening the blades. If a cutting blade is bent, install a new one. Ensure the mower is level from side-to-side and front-to-rear. If applicable, check that the anti-scalp roller is set correctly and clean the underside of the mower deck.

  If your Toro Lawn Mower engine is losing power, it could be due to several reasons. First, check if the engine load is excessive and reduce the ground speed. A dirty air cleaner can also cause power loss, so clean the air-cleaner element. Ensure that the oil level in the crankcase is adequate, adding oil if necessary. Additionally, inspect the cooling fins and air passages above the engine for any obstructions and remove them. Lastly, the vent hole in the fuel cap may be plugged, so clean or replace the fuel cap.

  If your Toro Lawn Mower engine doesn't start, starts hard, or fails to keep running, several factors could be at play. First, ensure the fuel tank isn't empty and the fuel-shutoff valve is open.

  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. Also, check if the mower deck belt is off a pulley and install the mower deck pulley, checking the idler pulley, idler arm, and spring for correct position and function. Inspect the pump drive belt for wear, looseness, or breakage, and check the belt tension or install a new belt. If the idler spring is broken or missing, replace it.

What to do if Toro Z Master Professional 5000 clutch does not engage?
- P
  Patrick PooleSep 8, 2025
  If the clutch on your Toro Lawn Mower isn't engaging, several things could be the cause. A blown fuse can prevent engagement, so replace the fuse and check the coil resistance, battery charge, charging system, and wiring connections, replacing components if necessary. Low voltage supply at the clutch can also be a factor, so check the coil resistance, battery charge, charging system, and wiring connections and replace parts if necessary. If the coil is damaged, replace the clutch. Inadequate current supply can also cause this, so repair or replace the clutch lead wire or electrical system, and clean the connector contacts. Finally, if the rotor/armature air gap is too large, remove the shim or replace the clutch.
