What It Is

The Toro 131-4547-03 is a 22-inch OEM replacement blade designed for select Toro TimeCutter, TimeMaster, and Super Recycler walk-behind mowers and zero-turn riders. It is a high-lift blade intended for superior grass clipping discharge and bagging performance.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, verify these three things:

• Deck size: This blade fits only 22-inch cutting decks. Measure your deck width to confirm.
• Model/brand fit: Replaces Toro OEM numbers 104-8697, 104-8697-03, 108-9764, 108-9764-03, and 131-4546-03. Fits Toro models including TimeCutter 42, TimeMaster 22, Super Recycler 22, and select 22-inch Personal Pace mowers. Not compatible with 21-inch or 30-inch decks.
• Measurements: Blade length is 22 inches, center hole is 1-inch diameter, and the blade has a 0.25-inch thickness. Check that the blade’s offset and sail height match your old blade for proper lift.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: OEM Toro blade – factory fit and balance, no filing or drilling needed. Made from hardened steel with a durable coating.
• Installation: Easy DIY job with a socket wrench and a blade removal tool. Torque the blade bolt to 45-55 ft-lbs. Always use a new bolt if the old one is worn.
• Common gotcha: The high-lift design creates more noise and vibration than standard blades. It also wears faster in sandy or dusty conditions.
• Performance: Excellent for bagging and side-discharge, but can leave a rougher cut in thick, wet grass compared to mulching blades.

Should You Buy It

Buy this blade if you own a Toro 22-inch deck mower and want a direct OEM replacement that ensures proper fit, lift, and bagging performance. Skip it if you need a mulching blade or have a different deck size – in those cases, look for a dedicated mulching blade or a 21-inch option.
