- Here is quick video showing the easy process of replacing the drive belt on a Toro front wheel drive self-propelled mower. There are a couple of ways to do it, and a couple variations depending on your model, which are discussed as well.
Send me something from my Amazon wishlist which can be viewed here: www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls...

Best how-to for this on TH-cam. Because you gave the socket and bit sizes the job only took me 15 minutes to complete. Thanks! 👍🏻
A very simple easy to follow video and something I'll be able to do tomorrow on my self-propelled Toro. I've noticed it's been harder to push so this should help Thank you very much.
I looked at all the vids on this subject and this by far was the best one. I fixed my mower in 10 minutes.
I have to agree with pico1790 that this is the best video explanation on how to change the belt on my Toro. I went to Home Depot and got the belt, came home, made myself a square point drive out of a six point and went to work & only took me about 15 minutes total to change the belt and started it up and off I went onto the lawn. I have hills and before I was trying to mow just pushing it because the belt was broken in half and was hanging out a slot. I had to rest three or four times while mowing until I fixed it, now it’s going to be so easy for my 78 yr old body to mow again, thank you so much for your video!
Thank you - clear and easy to follow instructions. Just replaced the belt on my Mother's lawnmower today.
I'm at 2:59, and you already solved my problem. I just needed to remove the cover on my FWD Toro Model 20339 to replace the traction cable. Another video said there was only one bolt. I removed that one, and then this poor 70-year-old woman spent all day in the drive trying to pry the cover off and wondering why it would not budge! I almost cut it off! Tomorrow is another day... Thanks!!!!
This Video was perfect! I was avoiding removing the blade. This video confirmed that I didn't have too. Worked out perfect!
Very informative and simple to understand. Thanks for posting!
Thanks a bunch. You did an EXCELLENT job of keeping it simple and your camera work was superb.
Thanks much for this video. explained everything i needed up to and including socket size. went right out and fixed it and finished the yard. appreciate it :)
That was awesome and extremely helpful.
Thank you very much for your detailed process
Much better than so called professional sites
Thanks for sharing the bolt size. Real time saver.
Glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the video. I found this mower on the curb this morning fixed the carb, but was un-sure how fix self-propel. Now I know how. Thank you!!! Gift on the way.....
Very nice work 007! I had one in the shop for just that. Thanks for the how to. Keep up the great work brother!
Thanks Detective! Easy job for a guy like you!
Answered all my questions. Thank!
Just watched this, took mine apart in ten minutes and back together in ten minutes and it works better than it was. Thank you! Tools metric sockets 13 and 10, and the S2 square bit.
Great video! a link to purchase the belt would be more useful than your wishlist 😉
Very helpful video. Thanks for sharing the knowledge! 👍🏻
My daughter brought her mower over that same exact model so I told her to give me some time and I'll fix it but she wanted a new one so money for me !!! Nice work as always !
Very nice, Bill! Those are the best kinds of "repairs"...the ones you get to keep. Thanks for the kind feedback!
Very nice, communication with diyers was solid!
Thanks so much John! I try to make it as clear as I can for someone who has never done it, or even seen something like it before.
Make a choice to have a great day!! Love it.
A great how to for a beginner. textbook. Awesome video brother . Hope all is well with the family. Take care & stay safe . Later my good friend .
Thanks Dr.! We are all good here. Hope all the same for you my friend!
Thank You for a concise, informative vid....Well done!
Thanks for watching! I'm glad you found it useful!
I just bought this mower at a garage sale. Starts right up but won't move. Try adjusting the cable but no joy. This video was very helpful since the online owners manual does not provide this info. Thank you very much!!!
Excellent! So glad you found it helpful, and were able to score a great mower!
Great video! Well done!
Very helpful. Nice format
Thank you Charlie! Glad you found it helpful.
More detailed then the other videos.👍

Another good video. Thanks
Thanks kind Sir.
hey thanmks lawn mower at work wasnt working, so i saw this and said hey i can fix it, now they think im the king loo. ty bro
Excellent! Glad it was helpful!
@@kbssmallenginerepair2615 fixed the lawnomower today , so easy after watching video a icatually looked like i knew what i was doing my boss said, ohh good i watcxhed a youtube video of oti over the weekend, he saw your video too lol.
Great video. After replacing the belt I had too much slack so I tightened the cable and works great with the plastic belt guard OFF but when I put the guard on the pully lifts too high, comes in contact with the plastic belt guard and the belt won't engage. WHat now?
Thanks I need to replace my belt
I here you brother already up to 836. Good work
Thank you my friend, I appreciate your support!
Just saved me $130.oo thanks.
Thanks I need to fix mine. Might have run over as tick and the belt jumped the pulley. Not sure how now that I see how tight the belt guid is to the pully. Now thinking I need a new belt.
Thanks Brian. That is possible, but both guides are very close and don't allow much clearance. You could have the other model without the cover over the pulley in the front...
Thank you
Recently I have been having grass build up under that front cover more often than usual that it's effecting the self propelled. Any idea as to why when it didn't happen as often?
good product fast shipping
At-a-Boy nice step by step. 👍
Thank you kind Rooster!
Thanks
Nice job with the video.
Question - where did you get your lift table? Are there any suggestions you might have in regards to how you installed it, how it could be better, things you did that you think were a great idea?
Thanks again.
I bought mine through milexequipment.com as they had the best pricing at the time. I had no problems with them and they were great to work with. Setup was very straight forward and easy to do. If I had one complaint, it would be to have the deck hand and motorcycle vise be easier to switch out. They are both heavily bolted down, so when I need to switch them out depending on what I am working on, it takes a half hour or so to get them switch out. If you don't have both those additional options that won't be a problem for you. I love the piece of equipment and would absolutely recommend it.
@@kbssmallenginerepair2615 Thank you. I'll check it out.
thanks
If you r tires are slipping because of wear you can put 1/4" hex head sheet metal screws through the tires staggered about an inch apart then it wont' slip in wet grass.
My belt keeps coming off on the drive cable end of my 20332 rear propelled. I’ve tried two new different belts. The last one I tried was toro original. Any tips on how to fix this?
not sure it's a belt problem...have exact same model...I cannot move the belt or pully after removing all the covers to get access. should i be able to move the pully by hand ?
What do I do if I cant find the model number and what's the best place to get a belt, will automotive stores have them.?
Do you have a video on how to connect drive cables to the handle
I do not. It will either be a plastic housing that the cables rest in that a bolt slides through, a plastic hook style that fits into the handle. I will work on making a video of this.
Is there any torqe specs for the belt guide bolts or are they just hand tighten.
There may be, but I just hand tighten. Make sure it is snug to not come loose.
I have a couple good friends having trouble getting the wheels back on the lawnmower with the height adjusters. What’s the deal with them
Which mowers are you talking about? I haven't had any issues like that.
I changed my belt and now the fwd wont work i follow all the steps I don't know what is wrong someone has an idea?
You should always disconnect your spark plug wire you never know but other than that good job
Great video. Got to go get some square bits. ☹️
Thank you! They aren't something you use everyday, but nice to have. Make sure you get the right size, they are very easy to strip out.
My toro is not.moving fast as before is it because of the belt. I find myself pushing it quite a bite to move it along.
I noticed the front wheel is worn. Did you ask the customer if they wanted a new wheel too?
I did. They were not ready to replace that yet. This was quite an expensive tune-up with all the work it needed. So where the wheel was still functional, they decided to hold off on that for the time being...
MY FRIEND I BELIEVE THAT I HAVE THE EXACT SAME MOWER I NOTICED THAT. UNDERNEATH YOUR MOWER YOUR COVER ISN'T ON THEIR IT ALSO HAS TWO REAR BOLTS TO ALSO TO BE ABLE TO REMOVE THE TOP COVER OTHER WORDS IT TAKES THE REMOVER OF 4 BOLTS TO REMOVE THE TOP COVER TWO IN THE FRONT AN TWO IN THE REAR ALL FOUR BOLTS ARE UNDERNEATH TWO ARE TO HOLD BELT ( COVER ) PROTECTOR THAT'S UNDERNEATH THE MOWER ALSO ( MY BELT HAD SLIPPED OFF THANKS FOR YOUR GUIDANCE 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸😇
🇺🇸🇺🇸😇🧡
What causes the belts to break
Wear, rot, getting something caught in it....
Coy stobornly ment to rollover a sub
You Failed to show that you took the cover off under the lawn mower before you removed the 2-bolts in the front to get the front wheel drive cover. So, there is 4-bolts holding the top cover.
Well you are incorrect. This mower does not have a cover underneath, so no, there are 2 bolts holding the top cover just as I showed.
Ok K B good work mate come to my site and let me know how I’m doing with my videos (Henry Murawski )
I'm still not sure why you got rid other mower. It still worked good and had a lot of life in it still. You must have not liked it as much as your other option. Or u didn't want to put any work into it. Maybe you just felt bad that you were using both mowers instead of just one. I'm confused really. It was ok if u used it before it broke down. But if you used it after it broke down too than that is a problem, cause you didn't even try and fix it, you just went back to your other option. And honestly, you always talked like that was never an option anyways. So did you use the other option again after it broke down or not. Cause I'm thinking you used it back then b4 and after the breakdown. Anx the fact you work together is gonna be a huge issue too
I have no clue what you are talking about, or referring to??
OHHHH NOOOOO A 10 mm socket !!!!!
Just like my Toro. Great details and video. Thank you!!!
Excellent, glad you found it useful!
