    Great review, I have owned my Timemaster for a year and love it! The mower truly saves time and sounds great doing it so much so, my neighbor stopped me asked about the quality of the cut and went and purchased one the following week! I have 3/4's of an acre clear with varying terrain and it does get it done!

    I have 22 residential lawns and have been using this mower since I started my business. Gets them done quick and looks much better than a zero turn cut. Beast of a mower it will run through foot tall grass with the shooter on it

    I have been looking at getting one of these for several months, and today was the day. I noticed in my research, that people either love them, or hate them. Your comments below bear this to witness also. I was told by a very wise person that it's like any piece of equipment, you mustn't abuse it, you have to maintain it, and remember it was intended for residential use at all times.

    I’ve had one for 8 years, residential use only. Expect the blade & drive cables to snap at some point, sometimes yearly. Luckily, they’re under $20 each and you can do the repair yourself with basic tools. Keep some spares in your garage, I do. Belts & blades are easy to change as well. The Briggs motor finally wore out on mine, so I replaced it with a Kohler CV224 and it’s a beast now, totally different machine. Engine swap for $450 is still cheaper than the Toro HDX Turfmaster 22235 with the same Kohler engine, msrp…..$3000. Overall, the Timemaster is good mower with basic maintenance and some TLC.

    They really don’t lie saying “guaranteed to start”, I bought a 2015 time master from a guy, he had it outside with lots of problems, I bought it for $40, yes, a time master for $40, I’ve been fixing it for the past month and it’s a blast, but when I first brought it home, I said, “let’s try to start it, it’s a e-start model so I had the key to a on position, pulled the rope and it started up right away, I was surprised, it sat for about 2 years from the previous owner

  • @TerryGramling
    @TerryGramling 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I just bought one in March, it has been nothing but a pain in the ass, yes, when it's working it saves time and makes the yard look good, but it's already shredded one belt that engages the blades and I am constantly adjusting the cable that engages these blades. It has a piss pour design holding that cable in place, a little plate with one screw holding it in place. When it gets hot you have to wait before it restarts, my opinion, not worth the $1500 I spent on it

    I bought one of these from Tractor Supply and right out of the box only the right wheel had drive. There was no drive on the left wheel. Is this normal? It makes it hard to push. I can't imagine using "2 fingers" to operate this thing. It is "Power-assist", at best.

    • @randalwest5800
      @randalwest5800 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It's a good mower however, after 2 years the only downside is that it sucks in damp grass and clogs up quite a bit. Leads to large grass chunks stored up under the deck. Even after sharpening the blades you'll find yourself making multiple rounds with it.

      @@UnboxWarehouse .... I have my father's timemaster... its 7 years old... 190cc they went up to a 222- 223cc engine... the 190 is underpowered. Nothing else has changed to my knowledge. I currently an having a buddy go through it because it suddenly stopped maintaining rpm (probable governor issues) we'll see what the problem is. But, one issue they all have regardless of year and engine you have. They all have belt issues. These things EAT the blade drive belts. This isn't the large gear belt this is the smaller belt that the clutch engages to spin the left blade. The left.blade.drives the right with a gear belt. Great machine but definitely has issues and briggs isn't what it used to be . While it is 7 years old all maintenance has been kept up perfectly. There might be 100-200 hours on it over 7 years which is really nothing. I am a little disappointed to be honest. Other people have had premature cylinder scoring despite good routine maintenance/upkeep. For all I know I'll have to replace the engine.. again, we will see what comes of this tear down. Meanwhile my dad's 30 year lawn boy has had 1 carb replaced.... that's it.. if that doesn't tell you something idk what will
