I have a Toro SS 5060 Timecutter. It's only a few months old and when I used it last week it worked fine. Not it starts normally, but won't move. Could it be something with the electric brake not releasing?

Check to see if someone has released the hydro levers so that it can be pushed around by hand.

I checked on that. I even released them and reset just to make sure.

If you just bought it I would take it back to the dealer, as this should be covered under warranty.

That's my plan if I can't fix it myself before the dealer comes to pick it up. Problem is they are backed up a week and the grass is getting long...

Backed up just one week??? We are 2+ weeks out right now. Another shop about 30 miles North of us is over six weeks out and stopped taking in work because they have no place to store all the equipment.

Is it possible for you to borrow a mower from a family member/friend/neighbor just to get you by this time?

Another weeks growth of the grass won't slow that TORO down....

If this unit is that new, you could void your entire warranty by trying to do your own repairs. CAREFUL!!

Mower has been picked up by the dealer and I paid the service that does my fertilizing for a mow job. I wasn't planing on doing anything that might void the warranty, just making sure something like a stick wasn't stuck where it didn't belong. Sucks to pay $4000 for a mower and then pay someone to cut your grass!

Mower has been repaired and returned. Problem was a bad brake control module. Fixed under warranty. Great YouTube video explaining the operation of the brake control module, TimeCutter SS - Brake Control Module (Troubleshooting) - YouTube

Glad to hear it, hopefully no other problems.

My wife always wants to know why I have two of everything, this is why lol.
