To start the Simplicity 1693965 Broadmoor Tractor, insert the key into the ignition switch and turn it to the "Start" position while ensuring the throttle is set to 'Fast' and the parking brake is engaged. Release the key once the engine starts.
If the tractor doesn't start, check the battery connections, ensure the fuel tank has gasoline, and verify that the spark plug is in good condition. Also, make sure the PTO is disengaged and the parking brake is set.
The oil in the Simplicity 1693965 Broadmoor Tractor should be changed every 50 hours of operation or at least once per season, whichever comes first.
Use SAE 30 oil for temperatures above 32°F (0°C) and SAE 5W-30 or 10W-30 for temperatures below 32°F (0°C) in the Broadmoor Tractor.
To adjust the cutting height, use the height adjustment lever located next to the seat. Move the lever to the desired position to achieve the preferred grass cutting height.
If the blades are not cutting efficiently, check for dullness or damage. Sharpen or replace the blades as necessary and ensure they are properly balanced and securely attached.
Uneven cutting can be resolved by checking tire pressure, ensuring the deck is level, and verifying that the blades are sharp and not bent. Adjust the deck as needed to achieve a level cut.
Regularly check the transmission fluid level and top off if necessary. Inspect belts for wear and replace them if needed. Refer to the owner's manual for specific maintenance intervals.
For winter storage, clean the tractor thoroughly, change the oil, and add a fuel stabilizer to a full tank of gasoline. Remove the battery and store it in a cool, dry place. Cover the tractor to protect it from dust and moisture.
Excessive vibration may be caused by unbalanced or damaged blades, loose components, or engine issues. Check and balance or replace the blades, tighten any loose parts, and ensure the engine is running smoothly.
