Common replacement parts for Toro gas walk-behind lawn mowers

• Sparkplug. The sparkplug ignites the fuel mixture inside the engine cylinder to drive the crankshaft.
• Flywheel key. The flywheel key joins the flywheel to the crankshaft and the flywheel key shears off to protect the engine if the mower blade hits an immovable object such as a rock or tree stump.
• Cutting blade. The cutting blade spins below the mower deck to cut the grass.
• Air filter. The air filter traps dust and contaminants from air entering the carburetor.
