It sounds like you may be engaging the clutch to quickly, try bringing back the blade engagement handle nice and slow.

I'm on my 2nd Toro Time Master, it was great news that Toro decided to raise the price of the mower 50% ($999 - 1599.00) Thanks Toro!! Ridiculous

@mainstreetmower

Жыл бұрын

The TimeMaster debuted in 2011 at $999, but soon after went to $1099. Now 12 years later it’s gotten a bigger 10 hp motor and more durable transmission. Add to that inflationary pressures in labor, materials and freight and here we are at $1599. No other manufacturer has brought anything to the market that competes with a residential 30” cut, because they can’t build anything like it for the price. I agree the price stings but so does my bill at the grocery store.

Excellent demonstration, I just unboxed mine, thank you for the video..

Probably a good idea to ceramic coat under the deck before you first mow.

@mainstreetmower

3 жыл бұрын

Ceramic coating will definitely prevent grass from sticking under the mower deck, however, only for the first mow. After continually using your mower for a while, that coating is eventually gonna come of because of the sand.

I spray silcone every week in season prior to cutting and it works great for me. I do not use the wash port. I prefer to use my hand on any grass residue that silcone left behind.

So my question is I got one and love it but then first time it held the stop button down it had a loud pop....you video at time 9:52 sounded like it did it too..is that normal???

when you add that whole bottle of oil it puts the oil level way ober the full mark I poured some back out to get down to the top mark on the dipstick

My 30 inch mower is 2023. Yesterday when I tried using it, the blades would not engage. It was fine the last time I used it. What's wrong? How can I fix it?

No you’ll be OK, as long as it’s less than 1/4” higher. More than that means it already had oil in it and you need to take some out to get it to the proper level

Had my timemaster a year now, there's a squeak noise like a fan belt on a car when i push the mower up an incline or thick long grass, I've tried adjusting the tension. Is it time for a new drive belt?

@mainstreetmower

3 жыл бұрын

Hi Chris, It sounds like the problem is most likely with your drive belt. On the 30" homeowners, the only thing that connects the engine to the transmission is your Drive belt. So most likely it's that belt that is causing the squeaking. However, it could also be just a loose spring.

What kind of fuel is recommended?

@mainstreetmower

2 жыл бұрын

Ethanol free is always best. Second to that is fresh high test stored in a sealed gas can, and try to use and refill in less than 3 months time.

I can't believe you said the blue sponge doesn't affect the amount of gas? Yes. It's the same size as the tank. How does that not take away from fuel?? It seriously takes up almost a half pint. I filled mine up and took out the blue slowly and I gsd to add a good bit to it

@mainstreetmower

2 жыл бұрын

Your right I should have said the effect of the sponge is almost negligible. Think about squishing that sponge in a compactor, it would likely compress to the size of a small match box. I would bet the volume would be reduced by an ounce at most.

Why does the hdx have a smaller engine then this mower? Seems counterintuitive since this has a larger engine yet smaller gas tank. Engineers usually lack common sense 🤐

@mainstreetmower

3 жыл бұрын

It’s an engine option problem, there isn’t a commercial duty American made vertical shafted engine in the 9-12 hp range (that I’m aware of). They could go with a Honda GXV390 (13hp) but that engine has a large footprint, it’s heavier and a lot more expensive, it would probably increase the price of the TurfMaster $300+. The engineers get a lot of voice of customer and weigh a ton of factors when building these machines. The 10hp Briggs is fine for home use but not tough enough for a commercial machine.

First thing you do with a new TM, is yank that stupid blue sponge out of the gas tank. Was a gimmick repair from Toro, to supposedly control "sloshing fuel" in the tank, that could starve fuel to engine....STUPID! Remove that blue sponge
