To start the Simplicity 1690613 6108 Tractor, ensure the tractor is in neutral, engage the parking brake, and turn the ignition key to the start position until the engine starts. Release the key once the engine is running.
If the tractor won't start, check the battery connections for corrosion, ensure the fuel tank is filled, and inspect the spark plug for wear. Additionally, verify that all safety switches are engaged properly.
It is recommended to change the oil after the first 5 hours of use and then every 50 hours of operation or annually, whichever comes first. Always refer to the owner's manual for specific instructions.
Use a high-quality SAE 30 oil for temperatures above 32°F. For temperatures below 32°F, use a 10W-30 oil. Always check the owner's manual for specific recommendations.
To maintain the mower deck, regularly clean it of grass clippings and debris. Check the blades for sharpness and balance, and lubricate the spindles and pivot points as recommended in the owner's manual.
Adjust the cutting height by moving the lever located near the driver's seat to the desired position. Ensure the tractor is on a flat surface and the engine is off before making adjustments.
Check if the mower blades are dull or damaged and ensure that the tire pressure is even on all sides. Also, make sure that the mower deck is level and adjust as necessary.
For winter storage, clean the tractor thoroughly, change the oil, and add a fuel stabilizer to the gas tank. Disconnect the battery and store it in a cool, dry place. Cover the tractor to protect it from dust and moisture.
To replace the drive belt, lower the mower deck, remove the belt guards, and take note of the belt routing. Remove the old belt and install the new one by following the same path. Reattach the belt guards and ensure the belt is properly tensioned.
Regularly check the battery terminals for corrosion and clean them if necessary. Ensure the battery is securely mounted and the electrolyte levels are appropriate. Charge the battery periodically if the tractor is not in use for extended periods.
