To start the Simplicity 990778 Yeoman 637 Tractor, first ensure that the tractor is in neutral. Then, turn the key to the "On" position, pull the choke if necessary, and finally turn the key to the "Start" position until the engine starts. Release the key once the engine is running.
To change the oil, ensure the engine is off and cool. Place a container under the oil drain plug, remove the plug, and allow the oil to drain completely. Replace the drain plug and add new oil through the oil fill cap. Check the oil level with the dipstick.
If the engine won't start, check the battery connections and ensure they are clean and tight. Verify that there is sufficient fuel and the fuel valve is open. Check the spark plug for wear or damage and replace if necessary.
Routinely check and change the oil, clean or replace the air filter, inspect the spark plug, and ensure all nuts and bolts are tight. Lubricate moving parts as specified in the user manual and check tire pressure regularly.
