To start the Simplicity 2691370-00 Conquest Tractor, first ensure that the parking brake is engaged. Then, set the throttle to the half-speed position. Insert the key into the ignition and turn it clockwise to start the engine. Release the key once the engine starts.
Use SAE 10W-30 oil for general use, as it provides good protection under most operating conditions. Always refer to the owner's manual for specific recommendations regarding oil viscosity and type.
It is recommended to change the oil every 50 hours of operation or at the beginning of each season, whichever comes first. Regular oil changes help maintain engine performance and longevity.
If the tractor won't start, check the battery connections for corrosion and ensure they are tight. Verify that the fuel tank is full and the fuel valve is open. Also, check the spark plug for wear or fouling and replace it if necessary.
Regularly inspect the blades for sharpness and damage. Sharpen or replace blades as needed to ensure a clean cut. Always disconnect the spark plug wire before performing maintenance to prevent accidental starts.
The recommended tire pressure for the front tires is 14 psi, and for the rear tires, it is 10 psi. Proper tire inflation is crucial for the best traction and cutting performance.
Uneven cutting can be caused by a misaligned deck, dull blades, or incorrect tire pressure. Check the level of the mower deck and adjust if necessary. Ensure the blades are sharp and the tire pressure is according to the manufacturer's specifications.
To clean the deck, first ensure the engine is off and the spark plug wire is disconnected. Use a garden hose to remove grass clippings and debris. For stubborn dirt, use a gentle brush and soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and let it dry.
Excessive vibration can be due to an imbalanced blade or loose components. Check that all fasteners are tight and inspect the blades for damage or imbalance. Balancing or replacing the blades may resolve the issue.
To prepare the tractor for winter storage, clean the exterior and underside, change the oil, and add a fuel stabilizer to the gas tank. Store the tractor in a dry, sheltered location. Disconnect the battery and charge it periodically during the off-season.
