What really marks it out from its competitors is its massive 76cm width‐of‐cut; the same as that found on mid‐sized ride‐on mowers. This, along with Toro’s provision of a cavernous 88‐litre grassbag, ensures the super‐fast coverage of paddocks and expansive lawns.
The Toro 21811 / 20978 TimeMaster comes driven by a 223cc Briggs & Stratton 1000 Series electric‐start engine that employs Briggs & Stratton’s overhead‐valve technology for cooler, cleaner and more fuel‐efficient operation; and which boasts a commercial‐duty debris‐management system for season after season of unfailing reliability.
A Lo‐Tone muffler makes for a more pleasant working‐environment; while ReadyStart® means there’s no need to prime the carburettor or apply choke prior to ignition.
Thanks to Toro’s AutoMatic Drive System (ADS), whereby the mower automatically matches your walking‐speed, the 20978 TimeMaster is highly manoeuvrable and won’t run away from you when you’re mowing around trees, ornaments and other garden obstacles.
It has a blade‐break clutch, so you won’t have to cut the engine when emptying the catcher, or when crossing gravel or hard surfaces; and it combines an aluminium frame with a hybrid‐steel chassis so as to ensure superior durability.
A three‐in‐one machine offering mulching, side‐discharge and bagging as standard, the Toro 20978 TimeMaster Twin Cut Lawn Mower can be set‐up to suit whatever conditions you might be confronted with.
A hosepipe link / wash port on the cutter‐deck means you can clean the underside of the mower without having to flip it over; while a Quick Stow handlebar makes it easy to prepare for transport or storage.
