Power & run time
- Run time per tank~0.2 h
Mowing times assume 0.48 acres/hour: deck width x 2.8 mph at 80% efficiency, which allows for overlap, turns and trimming. 2.8 mph is 70% of the 4.0 mph top speed Toro publishes - almost nobody mows flat out. The "at top speed" figure is the same sum at 4.0 mph, shown so you can see it.
Fit uses Toro's published overall width.
Run time assumes a typical 1 gal/hour burn at working load; real consumption varies with engine, load and cut.
