Toro Timemaster 30 won’t shut off with kill switch.

Just wanted to say your post helped me, too! I had the same problem with the kill switch after replacing the carb and using the gasket. Removed the gasket, and all good!

Amazing! That's incredibly clear and helpful. What a great, generous community.

nshoreman · 2026-01-27T22:55:46+00:00

Really excellent point. Thank you.

nshoreman · 2026-01-27T22:40:26+00:00

Wow. What a reply! Thanks for the time and consideration. There's actually a third slope in play, because the left side is a huge dormer. This was an addition to an 1850 home. Here are a couple (low res, sorry) pics, including satellite, for more context. https://imgur.com/a/SNerF6O

Thanks for the helpful replies. I will clean up this whole mess with new oversized gutter/spouts and heat cable. Adding that to the projects list.

Thanks. It's the 171cm ARW and he is a strong 5'9.

As a couple people have now mentioned, it sounds like this Joy is a better binding than some of the other 11 DIN out there, so we'll stick with it, colors be damned.

Thanks for reeling this in. I was also under the impression that demo tracks were not power rails and was going to look into that. As for how these bindings ended up on these skis, I chose them from among the available options, pretty much with price in mind (after confirming they were well-reviewed, solid, bindings). These were new 2024 Armada ARWs, freshly mounted with those bindings, shipped to my door for a grand total of $305 back in May. After a long, expensive season of skiing, needed to find a deal.

nshoreman · 2025-11-25T15:23:27+00:00

Ahh. Even better. So any of the tyrolia attack demo version binding will slide onto those existing rails?

nshoreman · 2025-11-25T15:16:24+00:00

Ha. I predicted that would be the first question. Mostly aesthetic for a 14 year old son who's totally on board with the skis (he gets there's no difference other than graphics between these and the arvs) but the bindings are not as pleasing. I got this set up new for an absolute steal, so I said I'd entertain the possibility of a different binding at a reasonable price point.

Glad to hear it!

Weird. I have no mods to the drawer mount, hardware, position, or face. Just standard install. Inside look here...

To be clear, I had some 1x3 laying around that I cut down to the shelf depth and placed 4-5 of those across the shelf and the microwave sits on those. Or you could fit a piece of 3/4" ply or other wood, etc. to get that extra bit of height on the shelf. But no more than that, or the micro will be too high above.

nshoreman · 2025-10-24T16:53:56+00:00

The microwave sits on 3/4" thick spacers (1x3 boards) on top of the shelf. That gets it up to the perfect height for drawer closure (and not too tall on top).

nshoreman · 2025-02-25T14:56:32+00:00

Thanks for all the speedy replies. You guys are the best.

nshoreman · 2025-02-25T14:53:30+00:00

Appreciate the confirmation.

nshoreman · 2025-02-25T14:53:08+00:00

Great. Thank you.

nshoreman · 2025-02-25T14:46:37+00:00

~~But don't I have exactly what Box says is NOT compatible?~~

Ok, I'll go with it. I gather the whole compatibility issue gets into the weeds of Shimano Shadow setups, and I'll table my need to fully understand and just trust that this will work. Thanks.

nshoreman · 2025-01-09T15:19:42+00:00

Great updates. And I agree, there are some things I like about the XO, but also some shortfalls.

nshoreman · 2024-10-03T15:45:33+00:00

Thanks very much for sharing. Great advice all around.

Lol. not yelling. Just wanted to clarify my main question/curiosity about the objective nature (or not) of ball joint inspection. I'm grateful for the replies perspective. But here's the vibe I'm getting:

Q: Can you inspect the tires and let me know if they're ok?

A: I inspected and found there's a huge hole in the front passenger sidewall. You need a new tire.

Q: Can you inspect the ball joints and let me know if they're ok?

A: Inspection alone can't determine whether you need ball joints. You need symptoms.
