Toro-brand Commercial-grade Riding Mower
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and The Toro Company have announced a recall of Toro-brand Zmaster Z100 series riding mowers due to a hazard where the exhaust system can ignite fuel vapors from spilled fuel if the engine backfires. The recalled mowers are red, equipped with 17 to 23 horsepower engines, have mowing decks from 44 to 52 inches, and feature independently controlled rear-drive wheels, front casters, and a centrally mounted mowing deck. The brand and model names appear on the front of the mower, and the model and serial numbers can be found on a decal on the right side of the operating console below the seat.
Consumers who own these mowers should immediately stop using them and contact Toro or their local Toro dealer to determine whether their specific riding mower is included in the recall by providing the model and serial numbers. Even if the mower was previously repaired in a March 2001 recall, consumers need to contact Toro for this additional repair. If the mower is included in the recall, the dealer will schedule a repair of the exhaust system.
