131-4547-03 Blades for 22" Toro Recycler 108-9764-03 for 20001 20003 20005 20007 20008 20009, Replaces 104-8697-03P 108-9764-02P 104-8697-03

What It Is

This is a set of three replacement blades designed specifically for 22" Toro Recycler lawn mowers. It is intended for mulching and bagging grass on residential lawns, matching the OEM blade part numbers for models 20001, 20003, 20005, 20007, 20008, and 20009.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, confirm three things: your mower deck is exactly 22 inches, your model number matches one of the six listed (20001, 20003, 20005, 20007, 20008, or 20009), and your current blade part number is either 104-8697-03P, 108-9764-02P, or 104-8697-03. This set is a direct OEM replacement, not an aftermarket generic. Measure your existing blade length and center hole diameter (typically 1" or 7/8") to double-check—though this kit matches factory specs, measuring avoids errors if previous replacements were non-standard.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: OEM-grade steel with balanced cutting edges, likely to last a full season under normal use. The single 5.0 rating suggests no immediate defects.
• Installation: Moderate difficulty. You’ll need a socket wrench and a blade removal tool (or block the blade with wood). Always disconnect the spark plug first.
• Common Gotcha: The “P” in part numbers (e.g., 104-8697-03P) indicates a packaged replacement set—don’t confuse it with a different blade length. Verify your current blades are the same shape (curved for mulching) before swapping.
• Torque: Tighten blade bolts to 40-50 ft-lbs—under-torquing can cause blade throw, over-torquing can strip threads.

Should You Buy It

If you own one of the compatible Toro Recycler 22" models and need a direct OEM replacement for mulching or bagging, this is a no-brainer at $18.50. It’s a safe, verified fit with solid build quality. Skip it if your deck size is different, or if you prefer aftermarket blades with a different cutting profile (e.g., high-lift for bagging only).
