The key can wiggle a bit, but is held firmly in place by the tumblers in the ignition switch. I've never had a problem of it falling out, or worried that it even might fall out. That being said, out of principle, I wish that Toro would provide two keys with the unit instead of just one to err on the side of caution.
+Keith Koch Just remember to change your oil after the first few hours. Mine was a nasty black color from the new engine. This is typical on most new engines. You don't want to have the fine metal shavings that come out during the first oil change floating around your engine oil longer that is necessary, otherwise you will not get the full life out of the engine.
Here is my mower review in a nutshell: I think the engine is a bit weak, the gas tank a bit small, and the personal pace a bit fast. Granted, I live in a rural area and use it to mow about 1/3 of an acre and I cannot do it on one tank of gas, and I have some thick grass around my septic leave field.
hi i have the same mower a friend of mine traded me for my blower engine runs good now haveto repace battery front wheels and bag thne it be good to go. I wish this mower had a 10.5hp intek engien instead of a 875 series engine greatreview by the way.
My kawasaki Fc150v powered timemaster runs longer about two hours or less I was able to cut my grass and the neighbors before I had to refuel I agree the tank should be bigger maybe and w Mark metro 26 fuel tank would help the engine run longer. My mower is ten decibels quieter I used the decimetre on my cellphone to measure loudness.
I was hoping this was about the electric start and how to charge it up but I didn't see that addressed at all. I have two of these mowers but the electric start is not working on either and quite frankly they are a bitch to pull start.
Buenas como consigo ese arrancador para una máquina igual ya que me rompe las uñas del arranque original
Best review of this mower for sure
Great Video. You answered a lot of questions that I wanted to know.
Where did you get that neat fuel pump thing you used to fill up the tank?
For the electric start does the key shake while the mower is running or is it secure?

I loved mine, but the electric start stopped working on the third use 🤔
Was it the fuse? I have blown about one a year so far.
Might need to charge it
I just did my first cut. Wow, love my Honda, but this definitely cut my time.

Can you start this mower via pull cord without the key?
Yes, the pull cord works just like any other starter pull cord.
+On The Workbench Is 190cc enough power for a 30" mower? Or is it on the weak side?

luv my toro 30 until my fuel tank went out! only had it 15 days
You might want to consider adding an hour meter to it to track maintenance. I have a video on that too on my channel.
Ok and thanks

Try charging it
