I’ve owned 5 and they are great mowers but yes they are a pain in the ass to work on. That famous blue belt lol. I also had problems with the transmission cable always breaking. Great informative video

[@integrapestandlawn]

Thanks, yes you are correct they can be a pain. I forgot to add the cable for sure!

I own two of these mowers and I have several years and hundreds of hours on both. I do all my own maintenance and have not experienced any issues with the belts. The belts are very strong, if you have everything adjusted correctly, and blow the area after each mow, you shouldn't be experiencing such issues. I have the kawasaki fj180v kai on both of mine, just oil and oil filter changes, no issues.
Are you turning the fuel off to load and unload the mower?
If the fuel shut off valve is off you can't flood the engine like that. I always turn mine off just before I finish up on a job.
Overall, I am quite satisfied with my mowers. I think it's a good product. My only criticism is a few bolts have needed to be replaced on one and the transmission needed replacing on one at two years old on one.( I took the old trans apart and it was in fairly good condition, was just a spring that had moved inside that caused the problem with slipping.) The other mower is on the original transmission with hundreds of hours and no problems, so maybe just unlucky.
I would say that overall Toro has been good to deal with in my experience and they have a good product in the Turfmaster.

Our crews mow 20-25 lawns per day. They push them pretty hard as they are on production pay.

The muffler and engine bolts come loose? Thats crazy. But what's the alternative? Are there any other 30" inch mowers?

[@integrapestandlawn]

Doesn't seem to be another good option in that size. I have a fried that tried the Ferris 32 walk behinds and had lots of issues. they went back to the 21 toros.

​@@integrapestandlawnwhat were the issues with the Ferris FW15? I have always been interested in them, but don't have the parts support for it in Australia.

I guess i got lucky my kohler turfmaster doesnt have these issues. I burn through 1 or 2 blue belts a year but we do tons of overgrown lawns with it. Im having issue with bent wheels though.

[@integrapestandlawn]

Thats really good! We mow 20-25 lawns a day per crew, I know the guys push them pretty hard
