Re: My TORO 826LE won't self propell

Appreciate the responses. I'm sure MacLorry is right on target and once the weather warms up I'll start in and see what's not connected. I just tried to see if my machine could 'heal itself' and when that didn't work I looked at the Right wheel and saw that the cotter pin was missing, causing the wheel to move on the shaft. Thinking that was my only problem I replaced the pin temporarily with a screw and nut. Still though not getting any 'drive' action but possibly with the missing pin the axle has moved out of alignment ??? So once I get the covers off maybe the problem will be easy to see. Happy New Year !!!!

My 3 year old machine just developed this same problem. It worked fine in the last snowstorm of 14". Tried it last night and it wouldn't propel. Luckily it was only a 4" storm and I was able to 'self'-propel it and cleared most of the driveway. I looked at the linkages and I don't see an obvious problem. This model doesn't use shearpins and the chain belt looks to be intact. Any thoughts?
