Self Propelled Toro lawnmower and one front wheel?

won't turn when just pushed forward. It will turn when lawnmower pulled backwards. What do I do to fix this?

Update:

The wheel turns forward when propelled just not when pushed. And I can pull the mower backwards and it will turn. . .just can't push it forward.

    Remove the wheel that will not turn by removing the nut on the wheel. Inside the wheel, if it is a front wheel drive, you will find a stick , stone or some other obstruction that is getting between the drive gear and the plastic gear teeth in the wheel. Remove the obstruction and reinstall the wheel. If it is not a drive wheel about the only thing that would keep it from turning would be a stick or other object jambed between the mower and the wheel.

    It would probably be best to look at their website for FAQ's and/or technical help.....................possible that something is causing an obstruction and jamming the wheel ; difficult to diagnose w/o seeing it
