The Honda mowers are the best quality push mower, they are extremely easy to start and last long (we have a 1980's Honda push mower and it started in one pull after sitting all winter) but the truth is you get what you pay for you can go to sears and buy a mower for $200.00 and it might only last a few years. But if you get a Honda it will most likely last at least 10 years.
hope this helps.
God bless.
Snapper makes a quality unit, not as good as Honda but not nearly as expensive. starts around $300 for good one, they have used the same simplistic design since the sixties. very simple to maintain. parts are exposed for easy cleaning (the most common failure on self propelled system is grass build up under covers interfering with belt)
How to Change the Tires on Self-Propelled lawn Mower

The best way to change the oil on a Craftsman Eager One lawn mower - 6.75 HP is to buy a Toro.
I've never owned a self-propelled mower, but I would think there would be a lever to engage the wheels for self-propulsion. If the lever is in neutral. I would think you would be able to pull the mower backwards on all four wheels. If there is no lever and the mower is self-propelled at all times, you would have to raise the wheels that are propelled in order to pull the mower backwards.
you can't unless it has a lever that says how many speeds it has
That would depend entirely on the particular Toro mower you're referring to.
How do you change the blade on a Toro 21" self-propelled mower
Honda, Black & Decker, Husqvarna and Fiskars are all well rated self-propelled push lawn mower manufacturers. Not only do they A difficulty with some self-propelled lawn mowers is that they are often still fairly heavy, so they can be difficult to maneuver, so you might also consider a well-designed mechanical (non-powered) type.
The primer button on a Troy Built 650 self-propelled lawn mower is a black round ball. It is located on the right side of the mower just below the black rectangular fuel tank.
Self propelled mowers are not self driven. The mower has a safety switch which does not allow the unit to turn on itself. A person is required to turn on and steer the mower.
