The Toro 88-5140-03 Lawn Mower Blade is a cutting component designed for compatible Toro mower decks. It works by attaching to the blade shaft and rotating as engine power is transferred through the drive system, allowing its sharpened edges to cut grass evenly across the mowing path. Its balanced design supports steady rotation and consistent cutting results. The blade fits the designated deck setup and installs easily during routine replacement or maintenance.
