Introduction

Toro LT 11-44 Pro Lawn Tractor

The Toro LT 11-44 Pro is a lawn tractor produced between 1986 and 1987, designed primarily for residential grounds maintenance. This two-wheel-drive unit combines a basic mechanical configuration with a 44-inch mower deck to facilitate efficient grass cutting.

The tractor is powered by a single-cylinder, air-cooled Briggs & Stratton 253707 gasoline engine. With a displacement of 399 cc (24.36 ci) and a gross power output of 11 hp (8.2 kW), it provides sufficient torque for standard mowing tasks. The engine utilizes an electric starter powered by a 12-volt battery system.

The machine utilizes a Peerless 801 transmission system, characterized by a belt-driven gear design. It offers five forward gears and one reverse gear, allowing the operator to adjust the ground speed according to terrain conditions. Steering is managed manually, and the tractor operates on a two-wheel-drive platform.

Operator Station and Attachments

The LT 11-44 Pro features an open operator station designed for direct visibility and simplified control access. The tractor is equipped with an independent rear power take-off (PTO), which allows for the operation of compatible implements beyond the standard 44-inch mowing deck.
