LESSON LEARNED.....DON'T ASSUME. I have owned several Broadmoors over the years, beginning with a 728 that I bought new and still own. So, this is a new to me Prestige with 37 hours. Regarding the deck height, I was focusing my efforts on the rollers and electric deck lift. I ASSUMED that...

It does not have sealed bearings. The rollers just spin on the axle shaft.

I also notice that I have the chains attached to the slot of the curved part of the shaft assembly. The owner's manual shows the chains attached to the hole. I wonder if that is part of my height problem?

I will check the front height of the deck.

I will try the second link on the chains. Will the rollers reach the ground? I understand about the bar and adjusting front deck height. Rollers are in good shape as the unit only has 77 hours. This is a new to me Prestige. Got into it initially because I was looking for a 4x4 for...

Nothing in the owner's manual except how to raise and lower....With the toggle switch on the dash!

Thank you. It has the Simplicity blades.

I have a 50" electric lift deck (1695392) on a Prestige (2691130-00). The maximum that the cutting height can be raised is to 2.5". Is there a way to get this cutting height raised higher? I like to keep the grass longer.

I was able to perform the procedure and it now idles perfectly. Thank you to all!!

Cold idle is 1750, warmed up 2100. Cooling fins and linkages are all clear of grass and debris. Do I need a special tool to adjust tangs?

Should this Idle Adjustment procedure be performed when the engine is cold or hot after mowing (When idle is elevated)? Thank you!

Thank you, ILENGINE. Is the warping of the plastic intake manifold a symptom of something else? How difficult is it to replace? Thank you!

Hello - I have a Briggs 27 (13 0417 YG 23649) on a Simplicity Prestige (2691130-00) and when I start the engine it idles about 1700 rpm. After mowing, the idle will not go below 2100 rpm. Is there an adjustment for this?

After thoroughly lubricating all of the linkages I could find/see, the forward is working better. The reverse still does not return. I must depress the forward pedal to get the unit to stop when going backwards. I am having difficulty seeing where the linkage goes to the front.

Unit is super clean, and only 77 hours. I like that thought, but no grass. Pedal will move through full range with effort, but only return partially.
