Simplicity Broadmoor 5008 - SEAT; PARKING BRAKE; POWER TAKE-OFF ROD GUIDE ADJUSTMENT

Seat:
The seat may be adjusted from front to rear as desired by
repositioning the seat in any of the three sets of holes in the
seat support. Simply remove the nuts and lock washers
from the lower seat pan mounting bolts and reposition the
seat. Retighten the nuts securely.
Parking Brake:
See illustration below. To adjust the parking brake, loosen
the nut located behind the seat deck. Rotate the parking
brake handle clockwise to tighten and counterclockwise to
loosen the brake. The brake should be tight enough so it
will hold in reverse, yet be easily placed in the "locked"
position. Before retightening the locking nut, be sure the
brake handle is positioned in the 11 o'clock position when
engaged.
Power Take-Off Rod Guide Adjustment:
Should an attachment fail to drive properly, the power
take-off clutch may need adjusting. The power take-off
clutch is normally in proper adjustment when there is 7/8
inch distance between the set collar and the end of the
bracket when engaged for use with snow thrower and 5/8
inch for use with the rotary mower. If more tension is need¬
ed or readjustment is necessary, disengage the power take¬
off lever, loosen the collar set screw and slide the collar
back on the rod slightly. Engage the lever and check the
belt tension. Only enough tension to drive the implement
being used is necessary. Excess tension may cause premature
failure of belts and pulley bearings. M
