Hey man I just want to say thank you for making the video humorous and easy to understand. My dad and I bought one of these last winter and we were going to lauch her on her maiden voyage in the spring. But dad decided it was time to pass away before this great event. I think he must have guided me to your video because I needed to smile through the tears of missing him so much as the voyage began without him here. Great video. Made my day.
sorry bout your Dad man.... lost mine too. how do you like the mower? i need to get one quick because my riding lawn mower (craftsmen) just bit the dust and I'm going to rebuild the motor (which my Dad taught me how to do), but in the mean time i need a mower that can be folded up and not take garage space. thanks! Home Depot wants $359.00 for this ....
@@harpoon_bakery162yes, losing your folks feels like being an adult orphan, yes? The mower runs very well. It's got the same Briggs and Stratton as my last sp mower ( craftsman) which lasted nearly 15 years. Best wishes 😁
Husband is a truck driver so I needed to buy the mower and put together. Wow, your video is s life saver. Thank you. Need to know how to empty bag but thanks for all this info!!!! ♥️
I picked one of these up yesterday..... was just gonna look, but tractor supply had it knocked down to $259!!!! Sold! Got her all set up out of the box, and it smoked when I first started it(I thought maybe that’s just a new engine?) Ran it about one minute, started to see little oil coming out of the muffler. At this point I shut it down and double checked the instructions, figuring maybe I missed something. The only thing I did not do was check the oil level after I filled it, which I really did not think was necessary. So I went back outside checked the oil level, which was fine, wiped the oil splatters of the deck, fired it up again, no smoke ,no oil, mowed the entire yard without incident. Has anyone else had this experience? Really loved the personal pace, got a really nice cut. And the all-wheel-drive made it considerably easier than my old rear wheel drive mower. My yard is about 70% hill.
Thank you so much! I got mine today, unboxed it, and couldn't understand the "no words" instructions. Then I found YOU, and my pretty new Toro is sitting in my kitchen, ready to attack the lawn tomorrow morning!! Your video was very enjoyable AND helpful. :)
Thank you. I enjoyed the video and I learned about the soft pull to circulate the oil for a smooth first start. Just took mine out the box and added the oil.
I had a craftsman lawn mower which rusted out, reliable machine lasted 14 years time to buy a new mower, I purchased the same model as the one in this video, wow I'm quite impressed with the power never had a self propelled one like this.
We just bought one of these mowers. I thought about my back when it came time to get it out of the box, so I cut both sides of the end panel of the box so it folded down to the ground and I rolled the mower out on its wheels. Easy enough - zero lifting. Putting it together was just as easy. The high rear wheels really make a difference - don't even need to use the front-wheel drive function. It starts on the first pull and is miserly with gas. All in all, a good mower, IMO. Thanks for the review. Cheers.
Nice! Yes, I could have definitely been smarter about getting it out of the box...saw another person just tip the box up...but I like your way! Thanks for the comment and enjoy your new mower!
@@LowkeyLawnCare Used the mower today without the bagger- easy as could be ... did a nice job with mulching too. Love the ability to attach the garden hose to clean underneath. Good design.
We bought ours over 10 years ago and it runs like a champ if you do basic maintenance. I call bs on the "no oil change.." Every spring I sharpen and balance the blade, check air filter, clean the under carriage of cake on grass and change the oil which Btw the old oil is nothing but sludge. The machine starts on one pull and purrs like a kitten. I cut the grass every week for the whole growing season and this Toro is really a good machine just dont scalp the lawn or cut wet grass as it will bog it down.
I’m not sure it even has a drain plug. If not I’ll Just take off the filler cap. Tilt it over to drain the oil and run Mobil one full synthetic 10w 40. That’s after the break in. I use Mobil one in all my outdoor power equipment never a problem.
I was unsure how to unbox a lawnmower but your video helped, now im on my way to unboxing other things like packages that get delivered, im getting better at it the more boxes I open.
Love this Lawnmower I use it on 5 yards a day very smooth. Took the grass chute off it’s cheap made and started dulling away where it connected to the discharge chute. I still give that mower 5 out of 5 stars it’s a beast never bogged down on a job yet. Hence I have rear wheel drive
“Always lift with your back, not your knees” 😂 I love it!! Maybe an Always Sunny in Philadelphia reference? Thanks for the review.. 4 years later! I’m a bit late to the party. 🤷🏻♂️
i learned everything in this video. good advice for the soft pull tip for oil distribution. just unboxed my toro (not Smart stow) recycler. PERFECT! thx!
Thanks for the video! My mom/room mate just bought this. The manual and app did not give me the confidence you just did! Wish us luck. #GirlsTryingToUseMachines 😜
Thanks for the video. This helped me out. I decided to give my hubby a break and cut the grass myself. Give him a little break for father's day weekend. 😉
Good job getting a self propelled model. I buy used, I like the older craftsman’s with FWD as that’s what I have they run great and are very reliable machines plus you save a ton of money going used and there are sellers who flip them and rebuild the carbs replace oil fuel everything.
Hello, We just bought this same model as our first lawn mower too! Thank you for this video, very informative. We will start it up for the first time hopefully tomorrow (if it doesn't rain)
I have one and not bad. Store it in the in vertical position, it's design to drain the fuel in the carburetor into the tank in order not to clog carburetor passages.
I have the non easy store version of it. Had it for about 3 months and I love it. It's fast, starts up most of the time on one pull, only complaint I have is the handle bar is a littel low for me. I'm 6 foot but overall it's a great mower.
i just purchased on with my stimulus check i wanted to get something to remember this time that should be a long term investment i call it the pandemic mower. so far so good. when the government call for the shut down shelter in place order my mother has 3/4 acre plot to mow i think it actually little over acre but anywho with the trees and moles and voles tunnels cutting the grass is an adventure when i cut. this mower been very good so far handling the high grass well and cut my time in the front yard down by 25 min or so......i like it its rugged i got the one with the kholer engine i heard it suppose to be pretty good.
@@harpoon_bakery162 i think 329 plus tax title and fees lol...i got with the low rear tires. I havent used my rear bag yet..but yes its a solid mower. The troy bilt about 40 cheaper at home depot. I got mine on sale. Toro had $20.00 from manufacturer
@@cjjonez ok, that might be the one i need until i can get my rider going again. Honda's are about 6 bills compared to Toro, i realize they are many cuts below a Honda (i'd love to have a Honda 200cc) , but dang, by the time im done with tax and stuff im at 400 bucks on this one. Thank you by the way!
@@harpoon_bakery162 home depot here had toro with honda engines i think at 349 or 369. But go to toro site they will show which brands they give discounts on my cousin got a craftsman honda ive used here my kholer do just as well or even better id say. Iam not a big fan of paying over 250 for a briggs no matter the chassis.... i say the kholer great motor on a mower👍
@@cjjonez yea, the 359 one is the B&S engine and the 369 one is the honda....but the 359 is the space-saver type and i don't think the one with the honda engine has that stow-away feature. i could be wrong i'll look again. My 2002 Craftsmen riding mower just died -- Briggs and Straton -- just pops like a firecracker when it tries to start, i was cutting the grass today and made the stupid decision to shut it off while i went and opened the back gate, when i tried to restart it , it pops like a gun going off, i think the flywheel key finally gave out or something. big storms moving through and now i have a half cut yard, lol. damn. anyway, thanks for the help!!
It's a sweet mower, most important to me is wheels are sold in store at home Depot and at Lowes ,tires are better than Honda mowers being I owned both over the years ,bag stays putt,great bracket design that bag sits , it claims not to have to change oil and I like this mower ,with store bought and not internet ordering like many other mowers ,it was so good I bought a second to replace the Honda mower.its better
Is it an either or situation with the side discharge and the bag? My son mowed the lawn with both outlets closed and the lawnmower stopped after one pass. Is it because the grass had no outlet and clogged up the undercarriage?
Yes. I'm guessing the grass build up got too much for the mower to handle in "mulching" mode. I made a video recently explaining the different mowing modes...might be helpful?: ua-cam.com/video/Z7IpSZIjgOY/v-deo.html
Good one think you only get free ones in USA and Canada... I'm in the UK just paid 😢 for one .. but your right you do need it specially if the grass is a little high.
Those 2 personal pace models the first one is the one with push button electric start or the model with blade break clutch and there is a model with personal pace is the model 20332
Like your presentation. was trying to make my mind between Toro and Honda, Got first toro and when i started to mow the lawn i realized the Blade was bent.so i returned it. Now thinking with care what to buy.
Is the grass long? My first thought is that the mower is betting bogged down, but if not, it may be an issue with the mower. Should be under warranty if you just bought it.
I have the same problem. My 12 year old rusted out Toro that I had before this would plow through 10 inch grass with ease. I finally sprung for a new Toro, and it bogs down at the mere sight of tall grass. I'm incredibly disappointed. I have the updated version of this mower (purchased in Fall 2021). For some inexplicable reason, they removed the side discharge from the new model. The lack of any option for a side or rear discharge (other than bagging) is incredibly stupid. The mulching blade simply can't keep up unless you go painfully slow, back up and go back over the same spot multiple times. I really regret this purchase.
Some of the questions were not answered, particularly one about adding the whole bottle of oil that came with it. I added the whole bottle and it looks like it overfilled the engine. Could that be a problem? If so how do I correct it? Should I drain out some? and How do I do this? Thanks otherwise a great video
Hey Robert, the owners manual on mine said to add the whole bottle. I’d check your manual and makes sure it says the same since it’s been a couple years.
Enjoyed your video. But...it seems that after you take out the white bagger unit, you could use a knife or a box cutter to slice the box from top to bottom at both corners of one end of the box, then just roll the mower out instead of having to lift it out of the box. Think that might work? For us older folks with less than Herculean backs.
1:30 “Always remember to lift with your back, not your knees” Thanks, Boss 👍🏼 So are you gonna pay my hospital bill or what? Haha jk, seriously though great tutorial/unboxing, it helped a lot 🙏🏼 Take care!
I bought the Toro Smart stow used it once & now it want start? 6/13/22. I was told to add the whole content of the oil that was included. What could possibly be the problem???
Just bought one several things I don’t love how you have to adjust the weels one by one them it’s front drive rather have self prepel with the back weels over all I do like it but wished it wasn’t fwd and the weels adjustment one by one sucks !
TIP for anyone who bought the newer 2020 model of this mower: Do yourself a favor and register your mower. When you do, you can check a box to indicate you want the (FREE) rear discharge chute. You're going to need it for wet or tall grass. This mower bogs down very easily in less than ideal conditions.
That's where you can connect a garden hose. Connect the hose, turn it on full-blast, then start the mower and run for a few minutes. It helps keep the underside of the deck clean, so grass clippings don't build up there. Cheers.
Great video! One quick question. I bought this mower in the fall of 2020, and it worked great! However, in the spring of 2021 the bagging system started to not work properly only filling the bag about 2 inches before clogging. I have washed under the deck and have washed the bag a few times but no success. I have also tried a new blade. However Just a few days ago though I used a power washer to clean more grime from the deck, but because I just mowed my grass with another mower, I have not been able to test if the better cleaning job worked. Anyway, I was just wondering if anyone else had the same issue or if it is just me, I have not found any UA-cam videos about this issue with this mower so I thought I would comment on this one. Thanks!
Awesome video I do have a question as we have the same lawnmowers I wanted to confirm that the top lever will also turn off the engine when you let it go again?
Just bought the TORO 22" Model 20339 this morning. Love it so far. Can anyone tell me why half the grass trimmings are coming out between the Black shout door cover and the Red metal body when I installed the bag . There seems to be a 1/8" to 1/4" gap when I open the Black rear door ? Thanks Dan April 25, 2020
@@justinstallkamp8552 ....... Justin, many thanks for your reply. Two things, yes I got the 8 inch piece of foam. What a joke. I also found out from a Kid working at Home Depot that the mower equipped with the Mulching blade is NOT Intended to BAG the grass, rather to just spread it around.. He suggested I buy the High Rise Blade that really sucks the grass up as it cuts it, and then Bags the grass. So I bought a new blade for my New Toro and that really works. Cost was about $20.00 CAN. Many thanks, DAN
I'm sorry to hear that didn't work, I work for their customer support, and that's pretty much the only solution we currently have for that. I'm glad to hear that the blade helped tho!
@@justinstallkamp8552 ... Justin, The Toro Mower is fantastic. Too bad such a small adjustment in manufacturing can be so negative. Maybe you could encourage the company to retool in the future. Or, for the price of a High Lift Blade, give one away as an incentive or Reward for purchasing this product. Cost to the company maybe $5.00 Can ? P.S. build that into the selling price !!!! Again, I love the "Starts Every Time' feature. Thanks again, Dan June 21, 2020
Have the newer Toro mower with no side discharge? Check out my latest video here:

But...it seems that after you take out the white bagger unit, you could use a knife or a box cutter to slice the box from top to bottom at both corners of one end of the box, then just roll the mower out instead of having to lift it out of the box. Think that might work? For us older folks with less than Herculean backs.

Thanks, Boss 👍🏼 So are you gonna pay my hospital bill or what?
Haha jk, seriously though great tutorial/unboxing, it helped a lot 🙏🏼 Take care!
Thanks for the video
I bought the Toro Smart stow used it once & now it want start? 6/13/22. I was told to add the whole content of the oil that was included. What could possibly be the problem???
thanks just bought about to see how it works
Just bought one several things I don’t love how you have to adjust the weels one by one them it’s front drive rather have self prepel with the back weels over all I do like it but wished it wasn’t fwd and the weels adjustment one by one sucks !
You don’t need to add oil before you start mowing ?
What’s the blue thingy me bob on the deck I have seen them before but not sure what they are
That’s the deck washout feature. You can attach a hose and it washes out the underside of the deck.
Low-key Lawn Care wow that’s a Great future thanks for replying have a great day
I bet your one of those guy's who say, "Hold My Beer and Watch This"
How is the mower holding up ??
Great so far!
do they have a rear wheel drive version... front wheel drive is not so good from others i have had... thax
Questions: where is the spark plug before you start the push lawnmower
Same place it was after pushing the mower.
Mine came with a little bit of oil plus a full bottle of oil should I still add the whole bottle of oil in it?
What is the round blue thing with the lock and unlock and drops?
Great video..easy for chicks too..
Can the lawn mower also be used without the bag?
Yes!
Thank you
What's the purpose of the blue knob on lower left?
The blue knob is where you can attach a garden hose to it to wash out the underside of the mower deck.
TIP for anyone who bought the newer 2020 model of this mower: Do yourself a favor and register your mower. When you do, you can check a box to indicate you want the (FREE) rear discharge chute. You're going to need it for wet or tall grass. This mower bogs down very easily in less than ideal conditions.
Great tip! I have a video coming out this week talking exactly about that!
Great video. Thank you
Very helpful.
What is the blue knob on the left side for.... the one with the water droplets 💦.. thanks
That's where you can connect a garden hose. Connect the hose, turn it on full-blast, then start the mower and run for a few minutes. It helps keep the underside of the deck clean, so grass clippings don't build up there. Cheers.
@@SCSlimBoiseID no kidding?!? That's gotta be messy, lol..
@@elfpimp1 I do it over a mowed area so all the green stuff falls onto other green stuff and the water isn't lost into the gutter. 😎
Thank you very much it's very good machine I love it
Great video! One quick question. I bought this mower in the fall of 2020, and it worked great! However, in the spring of 2021 the bagging system started to not work properly only filling the bag about 2 inches before clogging. I have washed under the deck and have washed the bag a few times but no success. I have also tried a new blade. However Just a few days ago though I used a power washer to clean more grime from the deck, but because I just mowed my grass with another mower, I have not been able to test if the better cleaning job worked. Anyway, I was just wondering if anyone else had the same issue or if it is just me, I have not found any UA-cam videos about this issue with this mower so I thought I would comment on this one. Thanks!
Thank you🙏
nice vid...what kind of gas do you use with it? do you just go to the gas station and fill up your gas can?
Yeah, I just go to the gas station and fill up the can! I've had some people recommend premium gas, but I just use regular.
@@LowkeyLawnCare great thanks
what type of gas do u use
Thank for de video
Awesome video I do have a question as we have the same lawnmowers I wanted to confirm that the top lever will also turn off the engine when you let it go again?
Yes it will
The self-propelled lever is an exact copy of a John Deere JX75!
Just bought the TORO 22" Model 20339 this morning. Love it so far.
Can anyone tell me why half the grass trimmings are coming out between the Black shout door cover and the Red metal body when I installed the bag . There seems to be a 1/8" to 1/4" gap when I open the Black rear door ? Thanks Dan April 25, 2020
Not sure why it’s not sitting tight. I’ll have to look at mine and see if it does the same thing...haven’t noticed it so far.
That will happen, call customer support and they will send you a foam seal kit to fix that issue.
@@justinstallkamp8552 ....... Justin, many thanks for your reply. Two things, yes I got the 8 inch piece of foam. What a joke. I also found out from a Kid working at Home Depot that the mower equipped with the Mulching blade is NOT Intended to BAG the grass, rather to just spread it around.. He suggested I buy the High Rise Blade that really sucks the grass up as it cuts it, and then Bags the grass. So I bought a new blade for my New Toro and that really works. Cost was about $20.00 CAN. Many thanks, DAN
I'm sorry to hear that didn't work, I work for their customer support, and that's pretty much the only solution we currently have for that. I'm glad to hear that the blade helped tho!
@@justinstallkamp8552 ... Justin, The Toro Mower is fantastic. Too bad such a small adjustment in manufacturing can be so negative. Maybe you could encourage the company to retool in the future. Or, for the price of a High Lift Blade, give one away as an incentive or Reward for purchasing this product. Cost to the company maybe $5.00 Can ? P.S. build that into the selling price !!!! Again, I love the "Starts Every Time' feature. Thanks again, Dan June 21, 2020
Thank you!!
