Simplicity 1694645 Legacy XL Parts Manual

To start the Simplicity 1694645 Legacy XL Tractor, ensure the parking brake is engaged, the PTO is disengaged, and the throttle lever is in the 'start' position. Turn the ignition key to the 'start' position until the engine begins to run, then release the key.
The recommended oil type for the Simplicity 1694645 Legacy XL Tractor is SAE 10W-30. Always check the owner’s manual for any updates or specific recommendations based on your operating conditions.
If the tractor won't start, check the battery connections and ensure they are clean and tight. Verify that the fuel tank has adequate fuel and that the fuel shutoff valve is open. Check the spark plugs and replace them if necessary.
Regular maintenance of the cutting deck includes cleaning after each use, inspecting and sharpening blades as needed, checking belt tension, and lubricating moving parts as specified in the manual.
To adjust the mower deck height, use the deck lift lever located on the right side of the operator's seat. Move the lever to the desired position to achieve the preferred cutting height.
Excessive vibration can be caused by imbalanced or damaged blades, worn belts, or loose components. Check the blades for balance and damage, inspect the belts for wear, and tighten any loose parts.
The air filter should be inspected before each use and replaced if dirty or damaged. Typically, it should be replaced every 100 hours of operation or annually, whichever comes first.
To change the hydraulic fluid, park the tractor on a level surface, remove the drain plug, and allow the old fluid to drain completely. Replace the drain plug, fill with new hydraulic fluid, and check the fluid level with the dipstick.
For off-season storage, clean the tractor thoroughly, change the oil, remove the battery and store it in a cool, dry place, and cover the tractor to protect it from dust and moisture. Consider adding a fuel stabilizer to the fuel tank.
If the tractor overheats, stop the engine immediately and allow it to cool. Check the coolant level and refill if necessary. Inspect the radiator and cooling fins for debris and clean them. Ensure the fan belt is not loose or damaged.
