What to do if my Simplicity Tractor engine will not turnover or start?

  Elizabeth CarterAug 14, 2025
  If your Simplicity Tractor's engine won't turn over or start, it could be due to several reasons. First, ensure the brake pedal is fully depressed. Check that the PTO (electric clutch) switch is in the OFF position and the cruise control is disengaged (NEUTRAL/OFF position). Make sure you have enough fuel; if the engine is hot, let it cool before refilling. If the engine is flooded, disengage the choke. Also, the battery might be discharged or dead, requiring a recharge or replacement. Visually inspect the wiring for any loose or broken connections. For issues like a blown fuse, faulty solenoid or starter motor, faulty safety interlock switch, water in the fuel, or old gas, it's best to consult an authorized dealer.

  If your Simplicity Tractor engine stalls easily with the mower engaged, try the following: First, ensure the engine speed is set to full throttle and reduce your ground speed. If the air filter is dirty or clogged, consult the Engine Manual. If the cutting height is set too low, especially in tall grass, raise it to the maximum height for the first pass. Make sure the discharge chute isn't jamming by directing it towards the previously cut area. Allow the engine to warm up for several minutes before engaging the mower, and start the mower in a cleared area.
