Toro is approached by the Minikahda Club in Minnesota in 1920, to create a motorized fairway mower, and mounts five lawn mowers on to the front of a Toro tractor. This innovation helps create the motorized golf course equipment industry.
In 1951, Toro markets its first snow thrower, the Snow Boy, an industrial unit that reportedly “takes the place of 50 men” clearing streets by hand.
In 1962, Toro introduces the Snow Pup, the first lightweight consumer snow-thrower.
In 1986, Toro introduces a major innovation in snow-thrower performance – the Toro CCR 2000 (Chuted Curved Rotor) technology that re-defines single-stage performance.
