Turn it over and check the drive belt. it's probably too loose or broken. don't ask me how to fix it, i'm here trying to find out why mine keeps dying.

It's been a while since I pulled one of those engines apart - the LV195 engines came in 2 versions. One has a detachable recoil starter that is held on by 2 screws, the other is an integral part of the cowling. Either way, the repair procedure is the same - remove the starter, or entire cowling as appropriate (may need to remove some plastic and the tank first), remove label on top, SUPPORT THE ASSEMBLY ON A DEEP WELL SOCKET or similar and drift out the central roll-pin into the centre of the socket drive the pin from outside to inside. If you don't support it, it WILL bend and make it useless. Make a note of the order of the washers and springs etc, then fit a repair kit.
I would take it back to where you bought it and demand they fix it under warranty and show you the proper way to stop it. Sounds like it was improperly set-up.
John, adjusting the cable would have been my first suggestion as well, there are two screws accesible from under the deck to get the black cover off (one of them is in a corner and may be hard to see). Once you get the cover off you may be able to see if you may have a tension problem, belt problem, etc. Goodluck!
how do you change the self propelled cable on Toro Model 20005 22 " recycler. Can't figure out how to remove the plastic black cover the cable goes under
I pull the rope and it seems like it wants to start.It will not start with rope ? are you sure your brake control cable is adjusted right if not it could cause it not to start,you said after you pulled rope and trys to start you used it twice when ?
