  If the cutting blades on your Toro Riding mower do not rotate, ensure the mower belt is properly installed on the pulley, checking the adjusting plate, idler arm and spring, and belt guides for correct positioning. If the belt is worn, loose, or broken, replace it with a new one. If the blades still don't rotate, the electric clutch may not be engaging or is worn, in that case you should contact an Authorized Service Dealer.

  If the blades on your Toro Lawn Mower aren't rotating, start by checking the drive belt tension. If the drive belt is off the pulley, install the drive belt and check adjusting shafts and belt guides for correct position. Also, inspect the deck belt; if it's worn, loose, or broken, install a new deck belt. If the deck belt is off the pulley, install the deck pulley and check the idler pulley, idler arm, and spring for correct position and function. Finally, look for a broken or missing idler spring and replace it if necessary.

Why is my Toro Z557 Z Master Lawn Mower cutting height uneven?

  Lisa MurrayAug 30, 2025
  An uneven cutting height on your Toro Lawn Mower could be due to several factors. The blades might not be sharp, so sharpen them. Bent cutting blades can also cause this issue, so install new cutting blades. Ensure the mower is level from side to side and front to rear. A dirty underside of the mower can interfere with cutting, so clean it. Check and adjust the tire pressure if it's not correct. For a bent blade spindle, it is best to contact an Authorized Service Dealer.

  If your Toro Lawn Mower engine is losing power, consider these possible causes. The engine load might be excessive, so reduce the ground speed. A dirty air cleaner can also cause power loss, so clean the air cleaner element. Check the oil level in the crankcase and add oil if it's low. Make sure the cooling fins and air passages above the engine are free of obstructions. Also, the vent hole in the fuel cap might be plugged, so clean or replace the fuel cap. Another potential issue is dirt in the fuel filter, so replace the fuel filter. For problems related to dirt, water, or stale fuel in the fuel system, it's best to contact an Authorized Service Dealer.

  Grant WadeAug 28, 2025
  If the starter on your Toro Lawn Mower doesn't crank, there are several things you can check. First, ensure the blade control (PTO) is disengaged. Next, make sure the parking brake is set and that you are seated on the seat. A dead battery could also be the problem, so try charging it. Check for corroded or loose electrical connections and ensure they have good contact. Finally, inspect the fuse and replace it if it's blown. If none of these steps work, the relay or switch may be defective, and you should contact an Authorized Service Dealer.
