    All of a sudden when cutting and spraying... my Outlaw Extreme blades started engaging when I turned the PTO

    switch off and they disengage when I turn the switch on. Happened all of a sudden while using the mower; I may have cut it off to answer a call but I was still in the mower. I suspect seat switch, PTO switch or clutch? Looking help.

    Blade advice - Toro 60" deck

    I have a toro commercial mow deck and I want a spare set of blades. I see the Toro OEM blades (112947) and after market options, with a significant price difference. I have no experience here. Are the "bargain"blades a good value or is it better/more durable to use the Toro blades?

    Exmark blades not turning

    Hi everyone. I’ve got a bit of an issue with my Exmark Lazer Z 72” mower. Out of the blue, it stopped engaging the blades, and now it won’t turn them on at all. When I try engaging the PTO switch, it makes a noise, and then the battery light comes on. I’ve checked the fuses (they look fine) and...
