Toro Gang Mowers

I bought them for $50 at a school eqipment auction...what a deal.

They work great.

I got a standard 3 gang set that has the wing attachments for the 4th and 5th gang sets...but that is big to get around with. I also got about 6 extra gangs and misc. wheels.

I have a mix of steel and rubber tires. The Steel works great as long as they have some tread on them...I have welded some teeth on them to get them to grip better...they wear down.

There is not a lot of maintenance on them and they are simple.

For sharpening ask greens keeper at a local course and they can send you to somebody good.

I had to take mine to a guy.

But I have been using sharpining coumpound the past few times and it is keeping a decent edge on them.

Just don't let the grass get too long between mowings and don't mow wet grass it will clog it up and get frustating.

Does a real nice job and the 80# rollers eventually smooth out the lawn.

I personally like the idea of pulling them again, and have considered bidding on them a couple of times at auctions, but I will opt for a rear discharge finish mower because I know I'd let the grass get too long and end up getting frustrated.
