Operating Tips
General Mowing Tips
•
•
•
Clear the area of sticks, stones, wire, branches, and
other debris that the blade could hit.
Avoid striking solid objects with the blade. Never
deliberately mow over any object.
If the mower strikes an object or starts to vibrate,
immediately stop the engine, disconnect the wire from
the spark plug, and examine the mower for damage.
•
•
For best performance, install a new blade before the
cutting season begins.
Replace the blade when necessary with a Toro
replacement blade.
Cutting Grass
•
Cut only about a third of the grass blade at a time. Do
not cut below the 2-inch (51 mm) setting unless the
grass is sparse or it is late fall when grass growth begins
to slow down. Refer to Adjusting the Cutting Height.
•
When cutting grass over 6 inches (15 cm) tall, mow
at the highest cutting height setting and walk slower;
then mow again at a lower setting for the best lawn
appearance. If the grass is too long, the mower may
plug and cause the engine to stall.
•
•
Mow only dry grass or leaves. Wet grass and leaves tend
to clump on the yard and can cause the mower to plug
or the engine to stall.
Figure 22
Wet grass or leaves can cause serious injury if
you slip and contact the blade. Mow only in dry
conditions.
Removing the Side Discharge Chute
To remove the side discharge chute, reverse the steps above.
Important: Lock the side discharge door after you
close it (Figure 23).
Be aware of a potential fire hazard in very dry
conditions, follow all local fire warnings, and keep the
mower free of dry grass and leaf debris.

the front wheels at 2 inches (51 mm) and the rear
wheels at 2-3/8 inches (60 mm).
If the finished lawn appearance is unsatisfactory, try one
or more of the following:
Cutting Leaves
– Replace the blade or have it sharpened.
– Walk at a slower pace while mowing.
– Raise the cutting height on your mower.
– Cut the grass more frequently.
•
•
•
After cutting the lawn, ensure that half of the lawn
shows through the cut leaf cover. You may need to
make more than one pass over the leaves.
If there are more than 5 inches (13 cm) of leaves on the
lawn, set the front cutting height one or two notches
higher than the rear cutting height.
– Overlap cutting swaths instead of cutting a full
swath with each pass.
– Set the cutting height on the front wheels one
notch lower than the rear wheels. For example, set
Slow down your mowing speed if the mower does not
cut the leaves finely enough.
