If the sun manages to break through this crappy smog/fog today and dries up I will do a little working video of said Toro .

 

I will dig mulching plug and side shoot out too .

This took forever to upload has video quality went altogether via transfer so had to upload from mobile via my wi fi .

 

Second time I used mulch plug ,grass was piss wet through 2hours earlier and I did a first cut 3weeks ago on this lawn to give you a idea .

 

Note ,I filmed this holding phone and mowing and it is a heavy mower .

The new spacer's are fitted to blades too .

That is a very good video. I am not a fan of Toro generally but that's impressive.

It is a well made mower that needs a few tweaks for the UK which i have done now and has the manual says FOR WELL Maintained Lawns .

 

Thanks

Probably would suit our market better if it had contra rotating blades no? Better collector and I suppose a better mulcher. No side discharge though.

Side discharge yes ,contra rotating no ,collector works well and if grass is a bit wet I use that bungee cord in video to open the grass box flap yo help airflow in wet .

 

Grass box is just right size for the wheelie bins .

 

Engine revs tweaked a tiny bit too .

Good vid I have the timemaster, good for the sites I brought it for. Weekly mulching, rough collecting and as a back up for my great dane.

 

One thing I never liked was the blades had very little wing on the leading to poor collection and constant side discharge blocking. So i decided to add some extra wing tips to the end of the blades using some sections of cut up blades. Totally transformed the mower fills the box up much better and no blocking of side discharge. No difference in vibration too.
