    Under the Seat switch issue

    I have a Toro Timecutter MX5060. I just had the transaxle oil and filter changed. I was going to do it myself but medical issues suggested I better just let a shop do it. When I got home I was adding a little more oil to the reservoir to bring it to the Cold line and then I'd purge. I...

    Pins on Toro MX5060 don't work

    2013 Toro MX5060 (50") zero turn. It doesn't matter if the pins are pulled out or pushed in, the machine still moves. It doesn't seem to disengage the transaxle for manually pushing the mower. For mowing, the machine works fine. Today I tested to see if the machine would move with the pins...
