Mr. Curtis, that new Toro 30" will be very beneficial in your yard mowing business! Also, it's a blessing to be able to purchase quality equipment which equates to making your work more efficient. May God continue to bless you and be safe!
Great work Mr. Curtis what a nice 👍 mower sir can’t wait to see it in action I bet it will help a lot when you run into a wet property love ❤️ your work and videos keep up the good work sir and thank you 🙏 for sharing 😀😀
OoooWeee MrCurtis looks like you work hard all day knocking yards down and your reward was a monsoon lol that new mower looks awesome it should help with wet and lawns. 👍
Hey Curtis I have the exact same mower. It's a really good mower engine and transmission are very strong. The only negative is that it's not well in wet grass. Because of the baffle under the deck. One trick that will help is remove your front baffle. Only 4screws.
Nice looking machine and I hope she serves you well! I've been very pleased with my 2019 Timemaster (new last July) but the Turfmaster is more my style having been in commercial lawncare since the 80's. These dirty 30's are great for bagging leaf clutter in Spring and Fall after my 52" has done it's thing. Cheers to good health and good business in this screwy 2020 season!
IV got two awesome nitch mower to go along with zturn I keep mine with me at most days nice to throw ontop of a mulch load just for surprise es it slides right on Bak of trailer nicely great video
Nice mower mate. Wish they had that one here in Australia. The reason I went for the Timemaster instead is because they still only have the 179cc model here
That's a nice mower. I got 2015 exmark 30. I get beat up after 3 small yards. It gets too heavy to turn especially lawns with a lot of obstacles. Now it's my backup mower.🙂
I’m wondering just like any commercial mower they are heavy but do this one walks pretty fast I mean where you don’t need to push it cause them yes it will be a beating but I’m sure your body will get used to it No, plus you cut faster you are finish faster
i looked at a toro hdx the hydrostic transmission but they were exspensive wich the kubota and honda shaft driven and blade clutch system was less money
It's much much more expensive than a Timemaster.. I use the Timemaster professionally and never had any problems with it or a need to upgrade to Turfmaster.. I just can't see the advantage but I can surely see the price difference..
so for 8 years you have mowed 25 yards a week with your timemaster? so it never broke down? does it have briggs motor? i ask because i am considering doing a small lawn care business..i think people like small mowers on there lawns more than big ass ones...Plus the quality of job is always better with a nice small cut machine imo. thax
@@roadstar499 I've got a 2012 Timemaster too and I do 1 yard twice a week (mine) and yes it breaks down. No engine problems but replaced pulleys, springs, cable, 3 sets of blades, idler tension pulley arm and spacer, 3 belts,etc. So I know if he's mowing 25 yards a week he's repaired it many times.
Hello Curtis, Enjoy your vids. Look like you could of brought the cutting height down 1more inch to give it a cleaner cut and yet cutting it high for that type of lawn. Sometimes you do have to cut different sections of the property at different heights, it's impossible to get a clean cut at the same height on some properties. Enjoyed seeing the rain pour at the end with a little hail, glad you made it home safely. I like the Toro 30", it should pay over and above. I've seen some give bad reviews about the product, which I understand but also it's how you maintain your equipment, how hard you run your equipment and knowing how to use your equipment in various conditions and the type and conditions of the blades.
Don’t know where you are from but that’s st Augustine grass and most varieties should be cut between 3-4 inches. You can see how thin the lawn is and one of the reasons is how short it’s being cut. There’s actually a part in the video where the neighbors lawn along the side of house by sidewalk is longer and thick. It also looks like somewhat new sod. He’s doing it probably-you want this grass to grow up and fill in sideways. This grass grows sideways also and can grow across cement especially when it’s cut higher. You don’t just keep cutting it shorter so you think you have a clean cut. It will be an amazing cut if he keeps cutting it high and it fills in. These 30 inch toros and exmarks have issues unfortunately and it has nothing to do with maintenance. I’ve had many and i wish they would get this figured out already-just many dumb issues that could be resolved easily.
Get it done curtis I have a 30 toro timemaster I love that mower I use it quite a bit you will be impressed with the turf master and how much time it will save you
The Toro 30"' mowers are like having a zero turn push mower. Power to mow through the tall stuff with ease! The biggest problem with the Turfmaster for me was the handle not raising for trailer storage. Now that I traded it in for a Timemaster, I can load a zero turn and two push mowers(1 always is the Timemaster).
Do not hit any roots. It will bend the blade shafts and throw the blade timing off. Our company used to use it. It's nice if you treat it right and don't beat on it. Congrats on your new mower though.
Would this be an overkill for a homeowner who loves his St Augustine? I now every 3-4 days in the growing season and like it high. I like the fact that this can cut upto 5” high.
Enough of the excuses Curtis, show us some stripes brother.😉😁 If the lawn looks good and the customer is happy, that's all that matters. Good God, that storm.😳
Have you ever tried the Exmark version of the 30 inch mower? I have been looking at 30 inch mowers I looked at the Ferris version and the one thing I don't like on the Ferris 32 inch cut mower is that it only goes 2 inch 3 inch 4 inch or 5 inch cuts no half inch cuts.
Yes, I have tried the Exmark version of the 30 inch mower. I like the all wheel adjustment on the Toro Mower. Now SCAG have a 30 inch coming soon. I think the adjustment system is good on the SCAG. I'm looking to go and check one.
This is currently probably the best 30"mower out there. I know, I know.. Opinions are like assholes, everybody has one.. But I'm sticking with my proclamation.. I'm on a market for a 30" mower as an upgrade for my small lawn care business but I can only dream of the Turfmaster, and especially this HDX model.. Way way above and beyond my current financial construct. So I'm eyeing the Turfmaster's sibling - the Timester. Given that I'm gonna put 2-5 hours on her weekly the so called residential Timemaster will run like a pro.
I have too much trouble with the Toro push mowers bogging down and dying with over 2-3 weeks of growth. I have a few 9f them now and they are good at one week of growth in the summer but not more. Thats why I decided not to get their 30".
If you had to buy only one Turfmaster HDX, which motor would you buy? I was all set to buy the Kohler version, but my dealer says I should buy the Kawasaki as the motor will last significantly longer and be a quieter and smoother engine. His Toro rep said he sells 8 Kawasaki to 2 Kohler. Other lawn pros on CZcams seem to like the power of the Kohler. It looks like the Exmark version now has the Kohler, so I am not sure what to do! Thank you!
I like the Kohler engine for the power. I would go with the Kohler engine. I have both engine and they both are good. Now thinking back there were a lot user from the first gen asking for more power. That is why I waited to get one.
Do you bag your lawns? I am new at this and it is taking me much too long to edge, trim, mow and bag. Average between 2 and 3 hours. Can't make a profit this way
Yes, I bag some of the lawns. If you stick with it you will make a profit. As you work at this you will learn more about how to get it done faster. It take time to learn
Yes, I have a lot mower. This happen because the customers keep calling me . I never plan to have a lot mower. Stuff keeps breaking and you have jobs to do. No time to wait for fix. Let's keep moving
Yes, I have a 52", 42" and 30" . You know I get customers like this when someone has ran over stuff in their lawn with a bigger mower. These customers tell me that the guys ran over their sprinkler heads and flowers. So they don't want a big mower in their lawn.
I wonder why Toro chose the Kohler CV200 engine for their commercial 30" mower when it has less torque than their residential Timemaster? They could have chosen the Kohler CV224 which has 11.0 ft/lbs of torque and weighs the same as the CV200. They both fit the mower. I know that these Kohlers are more durable engines than the Briggs but wouldn't the Kohler 224cc engine have been a better choice?
I didn't know Kohler had a CV224 cc engine. I would have order a Toro Commercial 30" with that engine on the unit. Next time I get one I have that engine install on the unit. More power and Torque is the way to go. Yes, Kohler 224cc is a better choice. Thanks, For information on the Kohler CV224 cc engine.
@@WeedWhackerLawnCare I don't think it's available new from Toro with the 224cc, only the 200cc, but maybe you could work something out with your dealer next time. They will probably make it an option in the future. Back when the Timemaster came out in 2012, I contacted Toro and asked why they used the 190cc engine instead of the 223cc and they told me in a condescending fashion that it was totally unnecessary and they knew what they were doing. HAH!!! They had to eat their words because lo and behold, in 2017 the 190cc was out and the 223cc was in. They probably hold back on doing it the right way at first so that people will come back and buy the upgrade later, even though that's what they should have used in the first place.

Keep Pushing Old School Keep Pushing💪🏽👍🏽
Great video I needed this lol .. great job explaining things
Turfmaster looking sharp bro
Congrats on the new mower, Mr. Curtis! Currently I'm running the Toro Timemaster, but really want to jump to the Turfmaster.
i looked at a toro hdx the hydrostic transmission but they were exspensive wich the kubota and honda shaft driven and blade clutch system was less money
It's much much more expensive than a Timemaster.. I use the Timemaster professionally and never had any problems with it or a need to upgrade to Turfmaster.. I just can't see the advantage but I can surely see the price difference..
Did you get the Turfmaster and if so, what do you think.

My dream mower 😎
Get it done curtis I have a 30 toro timemaster I love that mower I use it quite a bit you will be impressed with the turf master and how much time it will save you
Much better deal than the Kawasaki 179 cc model. Hopefully this engine can get through the taller and wet grass with a bigger engine.
Nice, I like it
Nice mower
I like it
Nice mower, congrats. I thought you had the exmark 30
Man Curtis it was like you were driving thru a hurricane.
Toro changing up the game. In ten years they will have a 33-36 inch push
Theres ass i had a 2018 it worked great decided to sell it & purchase two of these & honestly i wish i could go back
What’s the difference? I’m looking to buy one of them
Right on
I got the eXmark one with Kohler they are beasts.
Hello,do you have any issues in tall grass
they are the same exact mowers--That eXmark cost about 500.00 more. Not worth it in my opinion.
@@charliewilson9723 not the same exact mower lol the Toro has a different height adjustment system than the eXmark
Toro looks easier to adjust?
Is that the only difference?
Love mine,with the Kawasaki engine.Just needs a two speed transmission.

Your company probably had that 1st generation of 30' mowers. They were a piece of crap coming from Toro and eXmark. Those mowers were trash.
Would this be an overkill for a homeowner who loves his St Augustine? I now every 3-4 days in the growing season and like it high. I like the fact that this can cut upto 5” high.
Yes SIR!!
I would really like to see some mowing footage, maybe you can get a mount for the trailer or for a fence? Like a bendable tripod mount for your camera
I shared a video of putting this mower to work. Check it out czcams.com/video/AYLrsw2LxSw/video.html

Hello Curtis. What's the retail price on that new Toro turfmaster?
How does that handle hills and slopes? That’s the only reason I never bought a Timemaster - supposed to do poorly on hills.
That was the older unit that did poorly on hills. This unit has a new engine and new transmission. So far it's been doing a good job for me.
