A lawn tractor with a
garden tractor's heart, the Broadmoor offers durable construction,
exceptional cutting ability and wide-ranging versatility.
The Broadmoor is the only lawn tractor on the market to offer
Automatic Controlled Traction™—an advanced system that provides
power to both wheels when needed—to handle hilly terrain or
slippery conditions. Exclusive to the Broadmoor and all Simplicity
garden tractors, this feature assures traction and minimizes turf
damage.
A Free Floating™ mower deck with full-width rollers allows you to
create a beautifully striped, well-manicured lawn. And cutting
grass is an efficient process thanks to Broadmoor's tight 16"
turning radius and easily accessible infinite cutting height
adjustment.
Foot-controlled
acceleration—both forward and reverse—with cruise control is
standard on most units. A 17-hp unit with hand controls for
forward and reverse speed, acceleration and direction is also
available.
| Choose from a
reliable single- or twin-cylinder engine with full-pressure
oil lubrication and overhead valve efficiency. |
 |
The suggested retail price of the Broadmoor lawn tractor ranges
from $2999 to $5225.
| A
Broadmoor 16-hp tractor with 44" mower is available for
purchase in the On-Line Store with either a Kohler Command™
engine or a Briggs & Stratton Vanguard V-twin engine. |
