I have a problem with my Toro Timesater 30? After 30-40 minutes of use, I start hearing a grinding (or maybe a squealing!?) noise coming from transmission. It sounds just alike this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jMx-06vkYCI
I tightened the propel cable (as suggested in the video) but the noise is still there. As I said, it starts only after a prolonged use of the mower, not before, and if I lift the wheels from the ground, it stops.
I checked wheels, axes, springs: no plays. The cable and the transmission belt are well tightened, the lever is ok, the pace is fast. Everything looks perfect.
The Toro dealer is in trouble to solve the problem because it痴 not evident, and obviously I can稚 charge him for standing around waiting for something to happen. He suggested (as Rivets did) to keep on using the mower until the noise gets worse and acts up faster, and that痴 what I知 going to do. But, in the meantime, is there anyone having the same problem?
p.s.: I beg your pardon for my English.
