Simplicity 1691891 Broadmoor Parts Manual

To change the oil, first warm up the engine to ensure the oil flows out smoothly. Turn off the engine and place a suitable container under the oil drain plug. Remove the plug and let the oil drain completely. Replace the drain plug and fill the engine with new oil, checking the level with the dipstick.
The recommended tire pressure for the Simplicity Broadmoor Tractor is generally around 10-14 psi for the front tires and 8-12 psi for the rear tires. Always refer to the owner's manual for specific guidelines.
First, check the battery connections for corrosion and ensure they are tight. Verify that the battery is fully charged. Inspect the spark plug for wear or damage and replace if necessary. If the problem persists, it could be an issue with the starter or ignition system.
Use unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 87 or higher. Avoid using gasoline with more than 10% ethanol, as it can damage the engine components.
It is recommended to sharpen the mower blades every 25 hours of use or at least once per mowing season to ensure a clean cut and healthy lawn.
To clean the air filter, remove the filter cover and take out the filter. If it is a foam filter, wash it with mild detergent and water, then let it dry completely before reinstalling. For paper filters, gently tap it to remove debris or replace it if excessively dirty.
Adjust the cutting height by using the height adjustment lever located near the operator's seat. Move the lever to the desired cutting position, which is usually marked by numbers representing the height in inches.
If the engine overheats, stop the tractor and allow it to cool. Check the cooling fins for debris and clean them if necessary. Ensure the oil level is adequate and the air filter is clean. If overheating continues, consult a professional technician.
To store the tractor for winter, clean it thoroughly and perform an oil change. Add a fuel stabilizer to the tank and run the engine for a few minutes. Remove the battery and store it in a cool, dry place. Cover the tractor to protect it from dust and moisture.
To improve traction, consider using tire chains or weights. Ensure the tires are inflated to the correct pressure and in good condition. Adjust the mowing speed and avoid sudden movements to maintain better control.
