- In "Handyman", Taryl's 2nd Halloween video of October 2018, Taryl goes over how to properly replace the transmission on your 30" Toro Time Master Mower. Prior to and after the fix, Junior catches wind about the legend of Handyman, where a mechanic shows up and fixes your problem after saying his name 3 times while patting your head, but only there's a catch. Check it out here for another hilarious yet informative how-to video from your pals at Grass Rats Garage. And as always, There's Your Dinner!!

Good video, very clear steps.
My Toro Timemaster failed with no drive to the right hand wheel. I removed the transmission as per your procedure.
I stripped the transmission down and found the problem not to be gears or halfshaft problems, but a split in half halfshaft retaining bush that doubles as an oil circulation paddle (the transmission housing is half full of 20-50 or 15-40 oil).
This 2 bit thing was made of plastic and clearly the weak link. No parts are available for the transmission internals, in the UK anyway!
It allowed the halfshaft / inner drive transfer wheel to float away enough not to get any drive from the crown wheel when the cable pulled the actuator lever.
I've made a brass bush (have lathe will turn) and machined out the paddle so it fits over the brass bush. A stainless steel bolt through the paddle halves and bush / halfshaft keeps it all in place. Now all is in place it works just as it should. The other halfshaft has a similar bush / oil paddle but is in great condition!
Perhaps I had a faulty moulded plastic bush?
There is nothing on the internet about stripping / repairing these transmissions. You are expected to pay the $150 + tax or £181 for a whole new transmission!
I'm making a little video about the steps and what I did to repair it. Will post up soon.
Regards,
Steve
You saved the day!!! Great video & comedy, and the process and order that you did the replacement was spot on...I called my local Toro Repair shop and was told it would be 3-4 weeks to get it done...I ordered the trans from Amazon for $180 and took on the challenge...Yes, my spring fell out and the "pin" was lost on top and I had to remove a few bolts and the top to get it re-situated (you warned, but I didn't pay attention!!). With a little help from my wife to hold some stuff, I replaced it myself & saved a few bucks...Thanks for the education, information & entertainment!!😊
Super Fun Video and this Taryl is for real! I love the sounds effects and comedy! He makes this repair easy with detailed step by step instructions. I love wrenching on machines. I wish I had his talent...and tools
Nice opening shot of Podunk
OMG, the sound effects are getting better and funnier! Pretty sure that was Slippers for the "goofy" sound effect, and call me childish, but love the "fiber" sound effect, lol!
Really a good video. Camera guy got the shot right every time and the tutorial was simple and dead on. Subscribed and I’m gonna get my “Time Waster” back from the shop and fix it myself. Thanks you guys!
Duuuuude - thank you so much for helping me save hundreds in labor to replace a grinding timemaster transmission. I almost skipped your video when I saw the goofy intro, but I'm glad I didn't - your instructions were spot on and easy to follow.
Done and done! Working like new again. My old transmission did not have the two bolts on top of the pulley which keep the roll pin in! The roll pin was backed all the way out of the shaft. Even so, the transmission was slipping and the differential locked the shafts up when pushed in so you couldn't turn left or right. It has been working for more than ten hard years, so I can't really blame it for giving up. Thanks for the good camera work!
Thank you for the video! I changed my transmission today with your help.
Hooray ! E - Z Wurkz saves the day ! That's some quick thinkin' Taryl. 😃
You killed the handyman. I just finished investing in a 7/8 wrench factory, darn it. Thanks for another great video. Happy Halloween!
Great video I bought one of those mowers this season. The first one out of the box was leaking oil took it back got another one so far so good!
Big thanks, just finished changing tranny in my timewaster, saved $220 bucks doing it myself!
Hey Taryl as usual great video. I have a Time Master and its getting up there in age and this is great useful info. I just recently had a problem with what sounded like a bad engine knock but turned out to be loose engine mount bolts!!! Made my day when I found out this was all it was!!
Love your Video's.
Omfg.......... what did I just watch???? probably one of the single greatest video’s to be uploaded onto TH-cam!
Thank you so much. Spent time figuring out where the spring attached then spent an hour fighting to get the belt on, Your cross hand method worked the first time. Thanks again!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH! This saved my rear end when my Timemaster transmission went out. This video is still current.
Thank you for the video. It guided me through this process the last few days. One thing I had to do to get the transmission slide side to side to put the snap ring on was completely loosen the tension cable. Again thanks
Great video. Very helpful and a great way to display the info. Had a few good laughs watching. Thank you!!
I bought the ExMark 30 Commercial the first year of it's release and put on an hour meter. The mower was so fast and strong when new but slow and slippery ever since. I've had to replace a transmission after about every 110 hours of use. The first one or two were covered under warranty. The first trans was the best and every trans since has slipped much more and tightening didn't help as it was as tight as possible. They said they made improvements but all the trans have slipped more. The part number did change. I asked my dealer and he said they lightened the clutch to make it last longer but, I said like a automotive clutch, if you let it slip more, it wears faster so I call B.S. on Toro/ExMark. I tightened the cable so much to make it better it eventually snapped. I retired my mower to personal use after maybe 500 hours. Since new, I've spent at least $2000 on pulleys, spindles, bearings, transmissions, belts, cables, etc. It hasn't made a nice cut the last half of the use (250hrs+). Only the Kawasaki engine has been perfect, otherwise it's a lemon!! Avoid it at all cost! I wish I could sue! Later, I bought the Toro Hydro 21 Aerator brand new, from a different dealer. On every job after about 20mins the aerator slowed down to maybe 1mph. The dealer and rep said they didn't have a clue and because it cooled down by the time they would look at it they did not believe me. I showed a video and they said, huh, we don't know. Fluids were all new and full, and I used Premium Ethanol-free. I fought it for a while and sold it.
You guys make fixing stuff fun and very informational. Thanks for the part numbers and funny, good quality detailed videos
That was an excellent video: crystal clear explanation and really insightful hints. I use my Timemaster in France - I'd have had to pay through the nose and wait weeks for a French rea[pir, so this was a godsend. Well done and thank you.
Thank You, Thank You, Thank You for taking the time to do this video. Was a great help.
The farting sound effects are Academy award worthy! Bravo, bravo!
What's up Taryl. I love your dry wit, you remind me of my military instructors back in the day. I miss the profanity you have in your earlier vids but I realize in these pansy correct times your getting some blowback from YT. I started a job working for a school district and have to fix mowers of different sizes and some tractors and rely on your videos even more. Keep those wrenches turning and those videos coming brother! GODSPEED!
Great job Taryl sometimes when they change the parts the old mowers have different wholes or no wholes. For the new parts have a great day.
Good video, and would have been cool to open up the transmission. Was it the seals, bearings, or gears that were bad?
love yer videos. This first time I saw one I thought you were just full of shit but I watched one one time that saved me some serious money. After that I decided to just go along for the ride. Honestly, you get funnier all the time and your how-to is great.
Taryl, you murdered the Handyman!!! MURDERED... MURDERED... MURDERED... ...REDRUM ...REDRUM ...REDRUM!!! Sorry, I got a little excited there. Nice Halloween edition gentlemen's!
I love the sound effects you use in the video's. You've gotta get the stooges sound effect for hitting someone in the head with a pipe, or heavy metal object. Would sound good when the handyman hit ronnie in the head with his pipe-hand. Just a thought...
timewaster is right! My friend owns one and its the most underpowered boat anchor i've ever had the misfortune to use. If the grass is high enough to be worth cutting, it bogs down unless you leave the chute open and if the self propel works that makes it struggle also. it cant mulch it and doesn't bag worth a crap either leaving an ugly cut topped with clippings. Great video as usual.
Taryl - You reversed the orientation of the axle support bearing bracket when reassembling with the new transmission. This probably won't affect operation, but it is not in the same position as Toro's factory assembled the part.
Thank you Taryl, have a great day!
How bout one of these tasty nuts !!!!
TWSS!
Good to know that don’t matter which way they go in .
my old personal pace (2003) it mattered.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I watched and paused every step of the way. Mine broke one week after the warranty was out. They wanted way too much to repair it. Parts and two hours of my sweat equity and it is fixed.
How much was the estimate to repair? I think mine is on its way out ☹️
@@twood2232 I purchased the transmission on Amazon for $107 and did the work myself. It was fairly easy when following the video.
I’m dyin ova heeya lmbo!!! Handyman got his butt handed to him so there’s his dinner! New sub, learning a lot because of the humor. Anyone can pick up a manual but the chuckles AND hands on learning are so much better! Thanks for what you do brother, I’ll be staying tuned😉
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you !!! I'll be diagnosing one of these tomorrow. Thanks to all of your part numbers being shown, I will at least have a ball park quote for my brother. All of your knowledge and tips are greatly appreciated, Taryl : ) Stay safe and healthy !!
Excellent"HANDYMAN"terminating Taryl and Junior,so much for Jergenstein getting terminated,he won't be back...for awhile.
On a serious note about the Toro Timemaster,(timewaster)
I had a opportunity to buy one of these many years ago,I'm SOOOOOOOOOOOII glad that I didn't buy one after seeing this video!!!!!!!.
I bought a new Snapper instead,back in 1994.(back when Snapper was still Snapper)
I've never had a ounce of trouble with my Snapper so far.It has a all aluminum deck on it too.
THANK YOU SO MUCH for this video, just changed all the belts by myself and am amazed I could do it, with your help! Thanks!
Geez I was laughing already at the start of the credits! lol Love your vids!
This was a very useful video. I do disagree with the method that Taryl used to re-attached the belt to the transmission. I put the belt on the transmission & motor pulleys first. Then I took a heavy duty zip tie and created a loop by inserting the end of the zip tie to the catch. I then hooked the zip tie loop around the bottom of the spring. I then put my hand through the zip tie loop and stretched the spring until I could get the spring loop to the hole on the transmission housing. Once the spring was attached, I cut the zip tie and removed it. I didn't have to perform the cross hand method to reattached the transmission belt.
Great Video. Nice job on repairing the Time waster.
Nicely done repair and nicely done Handyman skit. You must have found someone who could write scripts.
Just right, this video is spot on. Saved my bacon 🙂
lol. You sir are a skilled moviemaker and small engine mechanic. I like how you fabricated a cable removal tool, similar concept to an O2 sensor removal socket 👍🏽
Very thorough walk through easy to follow. Great video. Thank you
Hey Grass Rats, I enjoy all your diy and skit videos! I have a Toro Time-waster/master. 😂😂 I would like to see a tutorial on how to adjust the blade belt tension. Keep the enjoyable videos coming! Thanks Grass Rats!!
Many thanks for this video. I was able to swap mine without issue. ❤❤❤❤❤
you guys are awesome
I've done this a few times, on the time masters and personal pace and others, really fun on some
Thanks, Taryl, the video made it a much easier job for me.
Great explained procedure. Good camera work showing details. Thanks for the video.
Great video thanks
Love all the videos Taryl and crew....It always amazes me how much time you spend on the floor working on equipment...I realize that whatever your doing obviously works so who am I to judge. I would like to see you using a motorcycle or some form of lift system...Maybe let us know what works for you...Anyway, thank you for sharing all of your vast knowledge and keeping us entertained. Dave
That was a good one that one was the best one so far I think
Got the sticker I ordered, thanks for the bonus sticker too! Keep the vids coming.
Did y'all get a new camera? That look way more clear than your other videos.
Great "cinematic" opening! Another excellent, funny, instructional video. This episode does need an epilogue however. I've seen several videos showing the Timewaster tranny replacement, none come close to your excellent version, but they all have the same thing in common. No one ever opens up the tranny to see what failed. Maybe in a future video you can open one up for all to see. And that will be your supper!
I agree I was sure he was going to yell "PSYCH" at the camera right after he said he wasn't ging to open it. I was just curious to see how it worked and maybe the cause of the failure the mode of failure I'd guess is a gear with no teeth.
Great instructions! Thanks!
Taryl any advice if the rear wheels are absolutely stuck on and will not move? Yours came off with ease. Mine will not budge. Thoughts?
Another Great How to - video, I have a Toro Time Master with a bad Engine. Just asking if you have replaced the Engine on one of these machines. Would really appreciate any information or advice you might have. Thanks George, Creve Coeur, Missouri
Ty for all the great videos!!!🍺🍺👍
I love the word "traction"
You saved me BIG money!
Another great video, Taryl! 👍
Awesome video! Great help to me in changing my transmission
great vid! Now do one on how to put a larger gas tank on this mower. can not believe they put such a small tank on this mower.
ALOT OF LAUGHS, great video.... by the way you installed the support bearing backwards...
Awesome video guys! 👍🍻
Taryl, how do you remember the order of the parts when it is time to put them back together? I always have parts left over.
Hay Taryl can you tell me the part number for the air box on the style motor that was on this mower. I have a similar motor I put on my wheeled trimmer but the 14" wheel is blocking the side air box.
I love these videos! Please please keep doing these.. thanks for the knowledge and laughs.
Well done, guys.
Good day Nice video. I was going to get handyman to help, but I guess he gone. What it that orange 3 pt. hitch unit. Thanks
Watched all the videos, crap now i gotta wait a week to see anutter video
Nice introduction excellent story line.Happy Halloween
If you put the turfmaster transmission in the timemaster will it be faster and cut through tall grass better?
This the previous model time cutter with the 196CC or the new upgraded one with the 223 CC engine? I heard both models have transmission issues.
Thanks for making my life easier great vids
Tarly, I noticed you did not grease the gears. Any reason? It seems metal to metal would enjoy some heavy grease. Thanks. Love your videos.

Great guide 😊
Thank you Taryl. Well done!
My guy..... you make it look so simple.........
I liked this mower but chose to replace it and get a Craftsman Professional Series 28 inch and have zero problems cutting tall, wet grass.
Awesome video.
Hey Taryl How do you get your Garden tractor for winter to store in a shed?
Have you tried putting the turf master trans in these models?
THANK YOU !
please do a video on how the trans works ,,, Im curious
LOL! I'm giving this a "Like" for that "...cord pull alone"!
Your the best. 👍👍
@2:27 .. was that a Williams ..Bonnie..a Blackhawk or a proto 7/8 wrench. Looked like a Williams. ....lol!!!!!
Nice work 👏 🎉
Can you use a 22mm to summon handyman?
Did you guys get a new camera?
Nicely done 👻
Just bought a used Timemaster and your videos have been fun and helpful! First thing had to replace a V belt. I've looked everywhere - do you know what the rpm range is for the Timemaster?
