The time saving benefit of Recycler cutting technology alone is probably reason enough to own a 48cm Recycler lawn mower, but there are several other reasons too.
For example, convenience features include the easy single-point height-of-cut system and SmartWheel gauge, and Toro's exclusive new Automatic Drive System (excludes 20814 push model), for effortless mowing at your own speed. Plus, there is a rear-discharge chute for rough mowing and a standard bagger for leaf collection.
What's more, there's a model with the conveniences you want - including Toro's 650-Series GTS 200 OHV engine. It's loaded with features such as a newer piston geometry, self-lubricating bearings, and overhead valves for added power and durability. Toro 48cm Recycler lawn mowers have a lightweight, yet thick, rugged aluminium deck that stands up to years of hard use. The lawn mower deck features Toro's own baked on electro-static finish that resists corrosion.

Recycler
TechnologyFor years golf course managers understood the time saving and turf benefits of leaving cuttings on the grass. Homeowners at the time tried the idea with mixed results. Many mulching lawn mowers were simply baggers with add on components. They couldn't effectively handle the increased volume of cuttings underneath the deck that these machines required.
In the mid-80s, Toro researched and engineered an advanced technology which reduced the size of cuttings and left behind a just bagged look without bagging. Called Recycler® cutting technology, this patented advancement features a newly designed deck, 'kickers', and a special blade. These features substantially enhanced airflow to handle the increased volume of cuttings, as well as keep them aloft. The 'kickers' and the blade work together to process the cuttings, reducing them into minute shavings, then injecting them back into the grass below the surface. The end result is dramatic time savings, and a reduced need to water and fertilise your garden. Today, the latest generation of Recycler lawnmowers is engineered to handle the tough grass conditions that overwork ordinary mulching lawn mowers.
The
reinforced, high lift blade creates a powerful updraft that lifts grass up for
a clean, even cut. The specially shaped blade also keeps cuttings airborne for
further cutting and reduction in size.
Strategically
placed 'kickers' or deflectors divert the cuttings back into the blade for additional
cutting. After the cuttings are thoroughly reduced in size, they are forced
out of sight, deep into the grass, where they rapidly and naturally decompose.
