Toro Timecutter VS Titan | New ZeroTurn Mowers for 2020 With MyRIDE Suspension | Affordable Quality

[@dougcurrie3025]

I purchased a Toro Titan 60" w/MyRide in June of 2020 to replace a 15 yr old 60" zero turn Cub Cadet. Three things the Cub Cadet had that the Titan doesn't have are a tachometer "helpful for engine break in procedure", a fluid reservoir for the drive units "if fluid is leaking you will see it before drive units are damaged", and solid high lift blades "the high lift blades on the Titan have a large section cut out of them making them bend easier". In 15 + yrs of hard use the Cub Cadet never got a bent blade. I have come to like the ride of the Titan very much. I hope the whole mower holds up as good as the Cub Cadet it replaced.

[@fishinncrapoutdoors4651]

I bought the 54 inch timecutter with the my ride system. The new my ride system is completely adjustable from the driver seat. Only thing I didn't like is that there isn't an hour meter factory installed so I installed one myself for maintenance reasons. Nice video 👍

[@IvanRamirez-fs3sf]

I just ordered my 54 inch timecutter as well. do you like yours? , how did you install the hourmeter and where you get it from? thanks

[@fishinncrapoutdoors4651]

@@IvanRamirez-fs3sf I love this lawnmower although I haven't gotten to use it much because it's been so dry. I bought the hour from Amazon. They have several to choose from starting right around $10 and are very simple to install. You literally just wrap the meter wire around the spark plug wire and it detects the electricity when the motor is running. There's also KZbin videos about it. 👍👊

[@DouginHanover]

Just bought a 54 inch Toro TimeCutter with the MyRide. MyRide was an excellent decision for me. I put up with a Badboy Magnum for the last 9 years and it threw my back out every time I used it. The Badboy was also a frequent visitor to the repair shop.

[@jalynjalyn3994]

Our local TSC sell's Toro's... But they don't service them,,, you have to take them to a Toro Dealer for service... I like buying at TSC cause if you have to return something,,, big or small there are no questions asked... They do carry the full warranties on all their items... I question with a high dollar unit like the Toros I'd be better off buying from a Toro Dealership...

Just wanted to say that I admire your presentation and appreciate the information provided. Good work! This is very helpful.

[@WorkshopAddict]

Thanks Tim!

[@a3970010]

Just to add my two cents in the comments section I have owned a Toro z4200 TimeCutter zero-turn mower for several years. The way it is built is extremely simple and makes it easy to maintain. The single-cylinder 19-horse engine is just enough to get the job done and has excellent fuel economy. The older models did not have very good seats, so that is one of the down points. Also the seat does not go forward far enough for my feet to touch the footrest and I am of average height at 5'-9". The blade size and hole size do not yield very many options for blades. 3/16 (.180) is about all you can find for it. You cannot get 1/4" thick steel blades for it. However even with inexpensive high lift blades the discharge pressure of this mower is amazing. It will throw grass at least 20' with the chute open. With the blades properly maintained it has an excellent cut. I managed to get my machine with only 1 year of light use on it...like new. For the price I would say that the Toro TimeCutter is a good value.

[@J_TRAIN]

Just sold my 54” timecutter w my ride. Buying a 60” plain timecutter tomorrow hoping it’s going to be great like my 54 was.

I want one of the Titans but I’m still mowing with a trusty 1985 Wheel Horse 310-8 and a 42” cut 😀

[@jronmanbuilds]

I'm used to running Commercial Scags, Toros, Hustlers, and Exmarks. Except for the Hustler the rest had dedicated brake levers and have had them ever since I started mowing. I like the integrated system on the Hustler. Most other mowers I have seen have the dedicated brake lever. If I'm not mistaken Hustler has a patent for the integrated brake system which would make sense as to why not many other brands have the integrated system. They also all use a pin for deck height adjustment.

[@WorkshopAddict]

My first Deere Z910a had a foot brake, but would allow you off the machine without the brake on if the levers we're out. So I got so used to that, I disabled the one on the Deere Z925.... I probably should have got used to using the brake cause it is hard to get used to now.

The Titan you have in the video reminds me of the commercial toro zero turns from say 20-30 years ago. That Titan may hold up to some commercial use🤷. 1600 hours on my grandstand 60" and I would buy another any day. Good review 👍

It's built well but in Toros line, still considered residencial.

[@andyflores9872]

You just mentioned the good stuff and not the problem that you will have. Like the censors on the handles they wear out pretty quick and brake control module inside the small gears⚙️get locked up, and the reflector too long‼️

[@MikeBMW]

Nice comparison, thanks, I liked it even though my yard is only a 1/2 acre. I'm curious, however, is there a version of a ZTR with mulching capability? I mean, not discharching the cuttings out the side. At any rate, I always love the vids and reviews and, again, thanks! :)

[@WorkshopAddict]

Deere has a mower deck that you can pull a lever and it will mulch or side discharge. Many make rear discharge units.. I think all the makers have parts to turn the decks into mulching machines. I needed it bad, but my grass was too long.

[@MikeBMW]

@@WorkshopAddict Thank you, great information! Time to do a bit of research - I use all electric (battery) tools in my yard and, except for mowing they are efficient. Even the mower works well but, at a 21 inch cut, it takes well over an hour to get a decent cut. I always mulch and haven't used fertilizers in over 15 years and the lawn still looks great - Mid-Central Florida with a huge Sycamore and oak trees.

[@johnfetter3252]

I have a Timecutter MX 5075, bought last year. Love it. I had the dealer put a mulch kit on it. Great cut, great power, wonderful ride.

[@jjjjester555]

Great video and analysis. If you are planning to mow around many fence posts (eg. horse paddock fencing), should I be concerning with occasionally hitting the posts with the front end wheel housing, and would you recommend the Titan for that reason?

[@WorkshopAddict]

I would not worry about a small bump. A large bump at speed would break the aluminum but save you a bent frame on the Titan.

[@edwilloughby8976]

You show this using a 60 inch cut. I am targeting the 50 inch cut time utter with the kawasaki engine to cut a 1 a her mostly flat lawn with a mild bank along the street. Thoughts?

[@WorkshopAddict]

That will be a beast. Love the Kaw engine. I went with a wider deck because it gives me more room to move around items without getting close to them with the rear wheels.

[@wingerrrrrrrrr]

@@WorkshopAddict so the wider decks are actually more suited for more complex mowing around objects than the narrow decks,

[@Chakirisan]

@@WorkshopAddict Didn't want to roll the dice, seemed like paying $5000 + for a Titan or a Deere 530 would have been minimum to get what I need... not in the budget. Ended up getting a X350 JD tractor which should last till I die. I'll just have to dream about cutting fast... LOL.

[@garsonprice3441]

@@Chakirisan I mowed 20 years of lawns with a 317 JD with 4' bed. Now have the Timecutter 5425 and wish I'd bought it at twice the price 20 years ago. Zero turns are designed for one purpose- to mow grass and they do it way better and faster than a lawn tractor. Spoil yourself with a Timecutter. 🤓

[@MrCoachHinton]

Thanks for the video! I am trying to decide if the extra money is worth it for the Titan. I mow 2.75 acres weekly, and about an acre of that is very bumpy previously-farmed land, so I am definitely going to get a MyRide system. I also have two small but steep hills, probably 20% grade. I’m between the 50” Timecutter (75755) and the 48” Titan (75311). The Titan is $1800 more but comes with the stronger transmission. What do you think? Should I spend up for the Titan or will the Timecutter do me just fine? Let me know, thanks!!

[@WorkshopAddict]

Both machines are awesome. 1800 is a lot for a smaller deck and some thicker metal. In that situation. I would probably go with the Timecutter knowing I saved some coin for something else down the road.

[@MrCoachHinton]

Good words! Thanks man!

[@kllnemsoftly]

Great review I was just looking at both of those mowers trying to figure out if I could get away with just buying the time cutter

[@411sponge72]

Do you think the MyRide was worth it when it comes to comfort when mowing? Thanks for the review!

[@WorkshopAddict]

If you have a rough yard, MyRide rocks. A suspension seat helps just about as much. MyRide is a lot of money in this class of mower.

[@aircooledflat4]

What is your opinion on differences of the 2 decks on these... and how much more durable are these decks compared to the stamped decks? ( We currently have a Timecutter Z4200 from approx 2006)

[@WorkshopAddict]

The deck on the titan will hold up to more front impacts than the Timecutter, but other than that, they are very similar.

[@kevinsabourin5102]

I'm in the market for a zero turn and looked at a exmark radius/s and being the same size as you the control lever are very close to my legs, just wondering did you have room on the titan for the control lever with the my ride for the price point thinking titan is the machine if I fit in it??

[@ronanderson1816]

Thank you for the advice!

[@elizaganir2599]

Can you please comment on the comfort of the standard seat on the Titan mower? is it adequate for moderate bumps and occasional potholes on a 2-acre pasture? I'd rather save te money and not buy the myride, i've also hear some say myride is not for everyone as far as comfort

[@WorkshopAddict]

I am a huge fan of the MyRide system. The standard seat is still very comfortable. Any zero turn is going to be stiff when hitting a pothole and when working over 2 acres!

[@CraiglistErd]

Not one of these reviewers ever discuss the deck pulley system durability. It may just be the week link that separates a good mower from a great mower that is "affordable". They mention deck gauge alot. I have a Craftsman DYT 4000 that is 10 gauge and its definitely heavy duty so buying a zero with anything else is a gamble in my opinion. However, back to my observation, there exists NO issues that any of these testers have come across that boils down to the deck pulley system wearing out prematurely?

[@WorkshopAddict]

I would have swore somewhere in here I mention that these spindles are sealed and not greasible? My Deere is a Z925 and it has grease zerks everywhere, but it is also twice the cost.

[@Chris-sj5fh]

Great review. Im considering these two, need to get much better ride than my Scag Liberty (their smallest) so definitely MyRide. I have 1.25 acres of lawn that was once farmland and is super-rutted and bumpy. No hills. I hesitate to go with another smaller machine like the Timecutter so am probably leaning Titan but would much prefer to spend less. I also would love the 48 deck cause the smaller decks are just overall easier to deal with, don't scalp as much in swales, etc, but am concerned about getting along bed edges with the rear tires hitting mulch and stone. Anyone have any experience please comment. Thanks!

Why is the titan deck able to run a power vac system and the timecutter isnt. What is the difference in the deck??? I was bummed when I bought timecutter only to find out they didnt have a power flow system.

[@WorkshopAddict]

Looking at the two decks, they are very, very similar. I have to wonder if the deck thickness is slightly less than the titan? I know the holes are drilled in different spots on the timecutter as I accidently started to install a titan mulch kit on the timecutter and it did not work. I cannot answer your question. Sorry.

[@fullthrottle2656]

I have a 3 year old Titan with a Kohler engine. Love the machine, never had a problem with it at all. Looking to buy another one for the cabin but am a little uneasy about that new Toro motor that the Titan has now with no other engine options especially since I found out it has a nylon camshaft gear!!! Whats your thoughts on the motor and that nylon gear???

[@WorkshopAddict]

Of course. They are only "rated" as residential and commercial based on the parts used and maintenance cycles.

[@Ron45M]

WorkshopAddict what do you mean about the cycle ?

[@kschreihart]

considering you are speaking of this mower: If you only use it to cut the one commercial property and not use it constantly daily you should be fine. There are many variables, but if spending $14,000 for a mower is over your budget then these mowers are a good choice. In the long run it may be more economical to buy one of these over a commercial heavy duty mower. Maintaining the mower more often, like changing the oil will be key.

[@fullthrottle2656]

I'd like to see them go to joystick controls like a skid steer with some nice armrests rather than the lever bars. They could incorporate all the controls right into the joysticks from engine starting, blade engagement, parking brake, lights, or whatever else they can think of. Keys are a thing of the past. Who needs em. Also for what yhe machines cost get rid of the carbs and just make em EFI. a lot less problems and they run better.

[@holbrook134]

Could you afford a pilot control lawnmower check prices on a few CTL’s

[@eosjoe565]

I always found it interesting that on a lot of commercial ZTRs that they use a simple pin to set the deck height. Whereas on a lot of residential machines they feel the need in some cases to use very expensive electro-mechanical linear actuators with expensive computer controlled sensors. One of the JD tractors comes to mind that uses a $2000 linear actuator and a complex array of sensors with a digital readout of cut height on the dash. Why? Those simple steel pins are never going to fail and who changes their cut height that often anyway. :-)

Keep it simple and out of the service department. I agree.

I bought a 2020 titan with a 48 in deck. I have 2 questions that I would appreciate a logical answer from a Toro expert.. question 1. Why does a toro want to start the engine at full throttle,? 2 Why shut the engine down at full throttle? 3 why engage the blades at full throttle? I have never operated any piece of equipment this way. It goes against logic. You don’t operate any other piece of equipment this. Way. That I know of except a cheep push mower. If you operated your car/truck nothing would last very long.i have never owned a 0 turn mower but I have Chain saws, Blowers, string trimmers, small garden tractors.with small 2 cylinder engines and blades with electric clutches. Most engines need to warm up to get full lubrication. Looks like there will be a lot of extra wear on the engine, electric clutch and belt. As for shutting down the engine at full throttle I would think it better to let the engine idle a few min to cool down.

I'm trying to decide if it's worth $2k more to purchase the titan 60 (model 75303) vs the timecutter 54 (model 75754). The timecutter series doesn't have a 60" deck with MyRide and I want the MyRide so that forces me to look at the 54 timecutter. I mow 1.5 acres every 1.5 weeks during the mowing season so not a crazy amount or mowing. Most of my yard is a 5 degree slope so the wider tires and better hydros on the titan will help I believe, hard to tell if its worth $2k more or not though. What do you think? I'm willing to spend the money if I will get noticeable performance out. Also curious if the resale value holds up with the titan vs the timecutter? Thanks for the input!

I hope your not offended by what I'm about to say. But they point out all the good but never mention the bad. They don't tell you the Toro brand engine is made by Loncin a Chinese company , I bought a 60 inch cut Z Master My Ride and it has backfired from the day I bought it . 20 hours later I take it back to the dealer , They told me it has a 3 year warranty on the engine. I told them to fix the back fire , The battery I have had to charge up 3 times in One month, and change oil . they said ok and we will sharpen the blades. I got it back the invoice said nothing about warranty or back firing or bad battery, change oil and sharpen the blades, and note I did not ask for blades. they charged me 26 dollars for sharpening the blades and then the oil change that I did ask for. But they did nothing for back fire and bad battery. I knew I had 3 years so I took it back again but before I called a Toro rep and told him the story. and the dealer called me 15 min later said they are coming to get it and they are charging me 80 dollars to pick it up. The Toro rep told me the back fire was from the fuel shut off valve , And the dealer told me it was the fuel pump, I said I thought it was the fuel shut off valve and the dealer told me my mower don't even have a fuel shut off valve , but I know it does. and he said as far as the battery it was only warranted for one year. So if you want a big headache go by a Toro with a Chinese made engine.

Tethering it with a small cable would prevent that.

If you're spending that much money on a zero turn YOU SHOULD ALREADY KNOW HOW TO DRIVE THE DARN THING!!!!

[@IndependentThinker74]

In case any manufacturer is listening: I want a zero turn mower with a gas pedal and a STEERING WHEEL! Yes, I know they are more expensive to manufacture. I don't care. I am wiling to pay for it. I hate those goofy bars that require both hands for operation. When I drive a mower, I want to drive it like a car. Not a piece of exercise equipment. I want one hand on the wheel and the other hand free to move branches away from my face, move debris from the lawn without stopping and getting off, drink a beverage, wave to a neighbor, or whatever. A steering wheel also makes it much easier to shift my body weight while cutting ditches and hills. I know that I am not the only one who wants this. Just Google: "Zero turn mower w" and the auto complete will show "zero turn mower with steering wheel" It's 2020 and I can't believe most major manufacturers still don't offer one of these.
