I just bought the Toro 54-in zero turn with the my ride system and I absolutely love it! By the way you'll notice a huge difference in the amount of heat the engine puts off with regular oil versus your new Toro synthetic oil, mine runs so much cooler with the new synthetic oil! Thanks for the video and enjoy that Toro!

You should always fill any filter 3/4 full let set a minute the filter soaks it up no dry start works on everything. And because it has electronic park brakes push the pins in and hook turn key to on then you can push across the floor easily with the bars in of course, I have the my ride system on my mower love it
@dtn92014 жыл бұрын
Did you start the mower up for a couple of minutes to warm up the oil before the change? I did this when I changed mine out, and it flowed real easy and fast. I also like to fill up the filter half way or so with oil so there's some oil in it for the first start up. Cool vid. I love my Timecutter. Purchased the 54" with the myride. Really comfortable if your cutting on anything but nice even terrain. I can now cut for 5hrs. plus and not feel like I've gone ten rounds of just body blows.
@PheasantLaneFarm4 жыл бұрын
They didn't even have a Meriden in stock for me to look at beside a smaller 50 inch. I'm surprised how well this rides over some older models I've used. Indid warm up the oil a bit. Maybe should have ran it longer. Seems real slow to me. Thanks for watching! Enjoy that myride!

My son purchased a my ride hd 60" for me Fall 2018. Thank you for your review. I too found the oil took some time to drain but the manufacturer recommends you start it and let it run for 5 min first and then drain the oil with the front wheels raised slightly and it does make a big difference. I am not naturally Mechanical so I need a lot of help. It was so difficult for me to install the bagger system (which works very well) the first few times. as the instructions were hard for me to follow and I didn't realized I needed a break bar and a torque wrench. QUESTION. I would love it if you could post a video of how you use a strap and hoist up your mower with your Kubota to clean the blades. I also have a backhoe loader and just don't know what kind of strap to use where to place it and how to hoist it up to wash the blades and/or sharpen them.

Thanks for the nice video! Too bad Toro made the oil drain easy (yet very slow) and tool free, but, didn't take further steps to keep the area under the oil filter clean from removing the old filter... I wonder the Toro designed oil drain tube, if it ever needs a replacement how many arms and legs will that cost...

The blade guard and grass deflector cracked the first hour of mowing... after about 10 hours, completely broke off. Now the deck is vibrating when PTO engaged and I can't locate the source. Toro is providing ZERO support.

Gee that oil got pretty dark after only 6hrs of use did you say ? Love the blue oil too. Fully Synthetic is a good choice. That engine will last a very long time if you use this and do the changes regularly. Oil is cheap so do it as often as you can.

I was on the fence between this mower and the Cub Cadet ZT1 50" for my next mower purchase. I initially chose the ZT1 and it mows perfectly. But I then got curious about the Time Cutter with the MyRide feature even though it was $500 more than my ZT1. So I went to my local Home Depot and I looked at the Toro very well. I didn't like what I saw which included: C channel frame tubing on the Toro compared to the ZT1's 2" full tube frame material which will prove to be much strong over time. I also didn't like the fact that the Toro had smaller rear tires vs my ZT1 that comes with 20" tires. The Toro comes with 18" tires. Two inches might not sound like much but it can make a difference depending on what kind of terrain you're mowing and how much of an incline you might be trying to mow. These two drawbacks made me forget about choosing the Toro as an alternative to my ZT1.....
