Just bought one of these mowers used. Never had an issue until I lent it out to a friend for 30 minutes. Thanks for the video Ryan! I was planning on replacing a cable until I noticed the damaged belt. Good job with the one arm job.
Excellent vid. The V-belt busted, but I went ahead and changed the traction belt since I had to take it off anyways. $25 all in and this video saved me time and a lot of money. Thank you!
I just changed this belt myself, took 20 min. max. My mower is like new as far as the cutting ability. I can plow through high grass now, no problem. THANKS FOR THE VID!!!
Awesome video! It was exactly what I needed to fix my mower. I love your videos. No stupid comments trying to be funny, goofy music or anything of the sort just straight forward I formation about what is going on in the video.
Great video! Just a reminder, when engaging blades slowly pull back until the belt catches up to the speed of the motor. This will make the belt last longer 👍
Thanks for taking the time to post. How to change the belt. It's in the nick of time, My timesmaster belt just broke. This video we'll make it easy for me to replace it.Thank you again much appreciated.
Just purchased a Timemaster Ryan based on your channel and I couldn’t be happier. I sold my rider last year for a little more exercise and purchased a Honda HRX217. Not only did it take over an hour to mow but the Honda was disappointing in cut quality and starting. When the left side of the handle started to rust badly from sweat it was time to pay a visit to my Toro dealer. Mowing now takes under 40 minutes and I find I’m not dreading the chore nearly as much. The handling and the personal pace system make this mower feel much lighter than it is. I do have a few caveats though. When/if the engine dies under load it’s hard to start, when it runs out of gas it’s hard to start. I’m hoping these will work themselves out or I’ll figure out a workaround. Thanks again!
Great video, thanks for posting. Your video made my repair go very smoothly, and kudos to how you explained in a very easy and relaxed manner how to complete the repair. Thanks again!!
When torquing my sharpened blades down I accidentally somehow got them misaligned where they were not 90° apart from each other so I watched a video on how to correct that and before I put the cover back on, I looked at the drive belt and noticed a big crack in it. Now I have watched your video and have a pretty clear understanding on how to change that belt, but I am also going to change the transmission belt since it is off anyway even though it might be in good enough condition thank you.
This is why I love my Ego Power+ mower. I hit the reset button recently and killed my lawn to go full KB, but it mows great and super silent with no maintenance :D. It's only a 21" blade, but with the striper attachment i was still able to make a struggling turf look fairly decent. On one battery I was able to mow my 5800 sq/ft twice and each time some of the lines I would have to double up on for the stripe designs. Even the lights on it have come in handy a few times :D
Were you having any noise coming from the mower upon engaging the blade? I've recently begun to have some squealing noise upon engaging the blades that will go away within 10 seconds or so but recently has begun to take longer and longer to fully go away.
Not really when engaging. There's always a little bit of a noise when engaging but it usually goes away very quickly. I was hearing noise when the blades were running and it was kind of a high pitched squeak while mowing.
An observation and a question; I noticed in another video and this one, You just turned OFF the inline gas valve. What you should be doing is: Always pull the spark plug wire boot anytime you are working around those blades. Now the question, Those blades on this time-master are timed with a clogged belt? I noticed they are not even staggered but in the same line, how much clearance is there tip to tip when in a straight line?
Thank you #RyanKnorr for sharing this how to vid . You've saved me a call to my nephew who's an authorized #Toro repairman a major headache and some money all at once 👋👋👋👋🤘🐺👌💯👍 (PS I also subbed to your channel)
Well I was reading a little bit about the common things that need maintenance with this mower and mine is 3 years old now. So it seemed like a good time to do some inspecting.
Great vid bro that took some time and one handed effort. I was thinking if that is a go pro maybe getting that head gear strap might be easier in the future for ya
I actually have one of those but I needed to be able to get the gopro inside of that cavity on the underneath side so you could actually see what was going on. Otherwise yes, good idea on the head gear mount.

I just replaced my belt after watching this video. Saved money and was able to get to my lawn schedule!
Thank you🙌🏾

Perfect!!
Couldn’t have done my replacement without the video!!
Thank you! Your video saved this 67yo man $100 doing it myself as opposed to taking it into the shop!!

Thanks for the video! Saved me a lot of money vs having the shop do this. Easy 15 min job.
No problem! Glad the video could help.
Great video, very informative. the step-by-step helped a lot!
Nicely done video. Saved me lots of time trying to figure out which parts to remove. Very thorough and to the point. Thank you!
You have the best and most informative videos! Simple and clean. I'm looking to start my own lawn care business. Subscribed. Thanks.
Great to hear. Thanks for checking out the videos!
Thanks!
Great vid. Worked perfectly for me when I replaced a broken belt this afternoon. Never replaced a belt before. Yeah RUclips,
Glad I could help!

Great video! Saved me a bunch of money when the blades would no longer engage. Sure enough the belt had a large crack.
Thanks for the help! My blade belt completely disintegrated in the mower
Love mine! Have not had to change belts yet. Thanks!
I Did this today, missed your video though. Had to do it twice, was given the wrong belt the first time! Saved couple hundred i am guessing

Sounds like a cool machine! I use this for my lawn business that I started this year as well so kind of have to have gas stuff when it comes to that.
Thank you! Your Amazon link is broken in the description by the way!
Great video! Worked perfectly
Nice vid. Mine went and this has saved me a lot of figuring out time. 👍🇮🇪☘️👍
Thanks men, nicely explained
Awesome video… Thank you for sharing…..
Hey Ryan, did you ever have issues with the mower bogging down under any load with the blades engaged. I have the 190cc as you have in this video
I got the answer for you. It's a way to fix that.
What size belt does the pto take?
What is the belt called?
Thanks just fixed mine 20 minutes
Helpful, thanks
Are you sure they aren't 10mm?
Thanks Ryan. Big help.
fancy! if my yard was bigger I would have gone with the time master!
I like it because with how much time I save, sometimes I just double cut for fun...haha
What was the part number for that belt . please

What size belt is it???....
good video if you are not changing the BLADE BELT which is how this video was labled this belt drives the pulley to drive the BLADE BELT
Great video! Good work with the demonstration and explaining each step. Just curious, what tipped you off on knowing that belt needed to be changed?
Well I was reading a little bit about the common things that need maintenance with this mower and mine is 3 years old now. So it seemed like a good time to do some inspecting.
+ryanknorr makes sense. Didn't know if there was a specific noise you'd hear or not. Thanks, man.

Good job videoing with one hand!!!
This video is for DRIVE belt, NOT BLADE belt.
Please re-title. Thanks!
299!
