Toro Self propell problem

[Matt]

I have a 5 year old Toro GTS super recycler, the self propell system works, but the rt wheel does not have power anymore?? any Ideas how to fix? All three gears work fine, but just the lt wheel has power, the other just rolls now.

thanks

i have one also.. dont know if this is the same, but its my third toro, all worked fine for years... its probably the wheel.. there is a metal gear on the wheel that is powered from a gear on the shaft of both back wheels... take off the wheel that does not turn and look to see if you have the shaft turning.. either the gear on the shaft or the one on the wheel is not engaging... on my older toro's the gear on the shaft that touches the wheel would wear down and not engage... pretty easy fix. they have a pin that has to be knocked out an d the small gear comes off... take it to a parts place and get a new one and put it on and it should work.... or do the same for the wheel with the gear if thats the one worn... kinda pricy for the wheel with the gear on it.. hope its the one on the shaft... hope this helps....

take the wheel off then the gear. the plasic and rubber friction washers need to be replaced. Chip
