Thank you, I was just able to fix my self propelled using your video. I am now subscribed. Thanks for helping an old retired guy with his budget.

Disconnecting the cable from the handle bar first would have saved me valuable time! 👏👏👏👏

Big thanks. Easy to follow instructions.

Well done! Thanks. You got right to the point, much appreciated.

Thanks alot for the video. It was a big help!

Well illustrated repair. This should be enough info to get started. I’ll let you know if it works for me. Thanks

Thanks for the video! Very clear and concise. Don’t know if it was my belt or the cable, but I replaced the belt anyway and tinkered with the cable some. Either way, the self propellant works again!

VERY efficient, compared to other videos that take more off.

You have a fantastic microphone.

Thanks for the video, lam going to try and replace my belf

Thanks I think this will help me. I replaced the drive belt but the self propelled is alway engaged. I will see in the morning.

Subbed!

Ok, here is some critical information, for those of us, with an electric/pull start system, and the black battery box on the deck of the mower. Ok, YES, there is a bolt underneath the box. But, it is towards the back of the mower, and you will see a slightly raised section of the box, that does not touch the deck, but sit's above it, about 1/4-3/8". The bolt you have to access is, literally in that notch, towards the backside of the black box/mower. And, I have found, that the box is riveted to the deck. So, for full access, you will have to rip the box off of the top of the deck, revealing 2 of the 3 bolts, as the 2nd bolt is, along the left side of the black battery box, just underneath the side front corner. But, if you are able to remove all of the plastic covers off of the back, including the flapper, for the bag. As, the top of the flapper for the bag hatch, is literally what has you blinded from seeing the bolt in the first place, besides the battery box itself. And, since I can't start it with the key anymore(Long story short, the cable harness was ripped out of the key starter switch, and ruined it), so it's pretty useless to me, at the moment. So, I decided to just rip the black box itself off. Which, made it much more simpler to access all 3 bolt's, for the plastic belt guard underneath. Also, it is a good idea to take a plastic bag(Walmart bags will do fine), and use it underneath the gas cap, by taking the cap off, then draping the bag(Double layer, by using whole bag) over the open hole, then screw the cap back on, and you now have a sealed gas cap, from leaking...

Great explanation! I switched my cable out but it doesn’t engage when I push the pace bar forward…but when I pull all the way back on the pace bar it goes forward?!? Any ideas?

How would I know if it's a cable issue? I took the machine apart and the belt looks fine. Mower is only about 3 years old and only used on my house, not commercial use. Just isn't self propelling. Good video, btw.

I put a new belt and it has a good cable on my 2010 personal pace..still will not move the mower and the cable is tight..

My toro isnt engaging either the rod is missing the gear so the wheels wont spin am i missing a part

Still not moving. Cable moves the transmission and has new belt, but still won't move

Mine has, new cable, gears, tires, and belt. Spins tires with it off the ground but doesn’t do anything once they touch the ground. No one I talk to seems to know why.
