Toro Co M/R Blwr/Trmmr Rear Bag Kit - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

Most of the time this is because of a worn belt or tensioner out of adjustment.

The belt is worn and cont handle the load. Replace the belt. The tensioner may need to be adjusted.

I can't figure out the remedy either. Very annoying. Replaced the rear door spring, but that didn't help. I even thought the bag wasn't breathing, so I flushed it with the hose.....No cigar! Any other thoughts?

Hi
Most common problem is gummed up carb. Have the carb cleaned and i that should take care of your problem.

The loud screech is caused by the starter bearings or solinoid needing lubricant.
Your other problem is the carb...follow these directions and it should solve your snowblower problems

Check your fuel filter in the fuel tank, if you have one.
It may need replacement or cleaning.
Also check your fuel tank for debris/trash and clean it out if necessary.
If the mower/weedeater is over a year old, then I recommend that you buy
and install a new carburetor repair kit,because the diaphragm will get hard
and that will cause it to be hard to crank.
Sounds like you will need to clean the carburetor or replace your carburetor
internal rubber parts like the diaphgram and O rings.
Be sure to use compressed air to blow out all the fuel and air passages.
Be careful when blowing out the passages, because there are sometimes small
rubber type seats in the bottom of some of the passages.
Sometimes you can get by with priming the carburetor or using starting fluid
and letting it run a few times like that and it will flush the gunk out of
the jets,but most of the time you will need to rebuild the carburetor.
Keep in mind that the float for the carburetor must be level when you go to
reassemble the carburetor or follow the instructions you get with the
carburetor kit.
When you clean your carburetor and remove the jet screws, you will first need
to lightly seat the jet screws.
But before you lightly seat the jet screws count the number of turns it takes
to seat the jet screws from their original position.
Be sure to mark the turns down on a piece of paper.
That way when you put the jets back in, you know to lightly seat them first
and then turn them back out to their orginal position before you started.

IF you do not see the drain plug o the side of your engine, than most likely it is located on the bottom of the engine you will most likely have to remove the guard that covers the belt if you have self propelled lawn mower and the plug should be under the guard. Good Luck

Clean your carb. Not getting or enough gas to start it.

Sounds like yor carb needs adjustment

Ensure the slots are not filled with grass clippings before installing the bagger.

there is a product called mowease that you apply to the blade and mowing decked after a good cleaning. it helps keep the grass from adhereing to the deck

Underneath the mower deck.

you should be able to get and idea from the net. log into toro and than go to model entry.

try a different outlet...make sure the plug to the mower is in properly before plugging into the wall outlet...

the carb needs to be rebuilt this is a very easy job for the DIYer just get the parts from your local repair shop and have at it..good luck

First I would replace the spark plug with a new one. If that does not work, there is a little electronic ignition part that may need to be replaced.
Please let me know what you find.

Hi
I have seen them go through the engine into the muffler. Did you check the valves if it damaged them. I would check for spark first if that is good put a tea spoon full of gas in the spark plug hole and try to start. If it fires you need to clean the carb. If not i would do a compression test that will tell you if the screw damaged anything.

Some have a circuit breaker that cuts out when too much current used when trying to start too much. Usually when it cools, will kick back in. Have you tried disconnecting battery temporarily, if just letting it sit doesn't do it? PS. Sometimes a little shot of WD-40 into carburetor will help start it if it's been sitting quite a while.

there should be an ajustment screw on the carb. turn it all the way in don't turn it hard then turn the screw back out 1 1/2 turn to start out with then after runing turn till it runs evenly.

You probably have a crack or hole in the primer bulb. Replace it and see if that solves your problem.
