Simplicity 2691111-00 Broadmoor Parts Manual

To change the oil, first warm up the engine to ensure oil flows smoothly. Turn off the tractor and remove the key. Place an oil pan under the engine and remove the drain plug. Allow the oil to completely drain. Replace the drain plug and refill the engine with the recommended type and amount of oil.
Consult the owner's manual for the recommended oil type, typically a high-quality SAE 30 oil for warmer climates, or a synthetic 5W-30 for broader temperature ranges.
If the tractor won't start, check the battery connections for corrosion or looseness. Ensure the fuel tank has fresh gasoline and the fuel valve is open. Check the spark plug for wear or damage. If issues persist, consult a professional technician.
Ensure the PTO (Power Take-Off) switch is engaged. Check the mower deck belt for wear or damage, and replace it if necessary. Inspect the PTO clutch for proper function. If problems continue, seek assistance from a service professional.
Basic maintenance like checking the oil level, air filter, and tire pressure should be done before each use. Comprehensive maintenance, such as oil changes and blade sharpening, should be performed every 25-50 hours of operation, depending on use conditions.
Locate the air filter housing on the side of the engine. Remove the cover and take out the old filter. Insert the new filter and secure the cover tightly. Ensure the filter is seated properly to prevent dirt from entering the engine.
Refer to the tire's sidewall for the manufacturer's recommended pressure, typically around 10-14 psi for the rear tires and 12-20 psi for the front tires, but always check the manual for specific recommendations.
Locate the height adjustment lever, typically near the seat or on the fender. Move the lever to the desired cutting height position. Ensure the tractor is parked on a level surface to achieve even cuts.
Clean the tractor thoroughly, removing grass and debris. Change the oil and replace the fuel filter. Add a fuel stabilizer to the gas tank. Remove the battery and store it in a cool, dry place. Cover the tractor to protect it from dust and moisture.
First, remove the spark plug wire for safety. Lift the mower deck and secure it. Use a wrench to remove the blade bolts. Sharpen the blades with a file or grinder, maintaining the original angle. Reinstall the blades and ensure they are balanced.
