CPSC, The Toro Company Announce Recall of Riding Mowers
Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
The hazard
Spilled fuel can ignite during refueling, when fuel vapors are drawn into the hot muffler.
What to do
Call Exmark or Toro to determine if the riding mower is part of the recall. If so, local Exmark or Toro dealers will install a spark arrester and (selected Exmark models only) a new fuel tank for free. Registered owners should already have been contacted by letter.
