The Toro company began as Toro Motor Company in 1914, and primarily an engine supplier for Bull Tractor Company. Toro Motor Company survived the tumultuous years of World War I by producing steam engines to support the war effort. Toro changed its name in 1920 to Toro Manufacturing Company and began to focus on production of farming equipment. In 1921, Toro created the first mechanical golf course maintenance equipment by mounting five lawn mowers behind a Toro tractor to mow the fairways at The Minikahda Club in Minneapolis Minnesota. Toro entered the residential market in 1925 with the Silver Flash push reel mower, and expanded into the international marketplace in 1928, shipping golf course and grounds equipment worldwide. J.S. Clapper, President of the Toro Manufacturing Co. through the 1930s era once said - A successful business today can be judged by consumer confidence. There �s no other yardstick. A new company starting out, regardless of the excellence of its product, finds sales resistance high because its good name has not yet been established. An old company carrying on, feels as the years go by, that its prime asset is its good name. There is a sound reason for this: the public knows by experience that a company with a good name values that name far more than the amount of an individual sale. This is as it should be, because a consumer is given the full measure of protection to which he is entitled. The good name that The Toro Company enjoys in the mowing machinery industry was not built up in a few months, but has been slowly earned after decades of worthwhile performance, proper value, and constant innovation -.

Toro Lawnboy Snowblower versus Toro Lawnboy Snowthrower What is the difference between a snowblower and a snowthrower? These 2 terms are often used interchangeably when it comes to snow, and there is a theory at least concerning the meaning of these two words. A Snow thrower, also referred to as a single stage snowthrower. The snow is gathered by a high speed auger. When the snow reaches the centerpoint it is hurled upward by the auger and thus - thrown -. There are fewer moving parts in these machines but they are all moving very fast so damage can be very sudden and severe. This design is almost always used in tractor attachments because of its shorter compact overall size. A Snow blower, also called a dual stage snowblower or two stage snow blower. The snow is gatherd by a low speed auger and fed back to a high speed impeller that - blows - the snow up the chute. The lower speed auger is less prone to sudden damage and is generally protected by shear pins. A worm driven auger is preferable to a chain driven one. A worm drive will have a small gearcase between the auger leads griven by a shaft coming through the center of the impeller. A snowblower is preferable under almost all conditions. Remember operators will get the greatest throwing distance when you throw to the side that continues the arc generated by the direction of impeller rotation. The word - Snowthrower - has origins dating back to 1954; The Miriam Webster definition gives a direct reference to - Snowblower -. The word - Snowblower - has origins dating back to 1950; The Miriam Webster definition: - a machine for removing snow (as from a driveway or sidewalk) in which a rotating spiral blade picks up and propels the snow aside -.
