    You've come a long way from this video till now. What I have noticed on the most recent videos that you are "a clean person". All your equipment looks brand new all the time. Congratulations.

    Thanks Fill for showing us inside your buisness. I have learned from my father the importance of having the right tool for the job. I thank you for showing what you do and how you do it. Also thanks for showing the office side. yf Bruce

    Damn, you need to put Echo Speed Feed systems on your trimmers. That took 5 times longer to spool the line with those trimmers heads you got brother. Idk if you have ever tried them. But if you haven’t. Best $30 ever spent for a trimmer

    Nice work Fill. I'm interested in LawnPro maybe make a video on that sometime. Also does it keep track of all your expenses and link to bank account? For a one week routine that air cleaner looks really dirty. You should upgrade to the Donaldson air filter system on that. Also that blade balancer is so accurate that it can take forever to get perfect. Count seconds it takes to drop (a 3 second drop or more should be fine from 90*) Just my 2 cents.

    • @fillslawncare
      @fillslawncare  Před 3 lety +2

      Thanks for the advice Bob. Yeah I'll have to make a video about LawnPro. It doesn't sync to your bank account like quick books does, everything has to be inputed manually.
      I have never heard about Donaldson air filter systems, I will definitely have to check that out. Kind of getting tired of blowing out this filter every week (probably better to do it every day).

    @jameshedrick605 Před 2 lety

    I give all my small engines a quick tune up at least once a week. I'll check the oil every day before starting them the same with generator. It gets check every time before starting it. I mainly use it whenever I need to weld anything to keep my electric bill down

    I can see where you would have maintenance issues with your Timemaster compared to the commercial version.
    I have a Timemaster and use it once per week vs using it many times a week through the summer as you might do with your business.
    I use Ugly Line @ .080 thickness. Works well for me.
    Thanks for this video and God bless.

    U can add the string on both sides at the same time, double the amount and jam both ends. You can even get the cap on and start it with the sides still attached if u wanted.

  • @clarencewiles963
    @clarencewiles963 Před rokem

    I would use the new WD40 spray dirt & dust Resistant Dry lube underneath the deck of your lawnmower. First it drys and doesn’t pickup dirt. And it also a rust inhibitors also its helpful when you clean up your under deck.

  • @ziegenwilly
    @ziegenwilly Před 3 lety +1

    Hello, a very interesting video, how you care for your lawnmower, I also do that after every use, for this I have a lifting table where I drive the mower up to working height to clean, I also have a spatula where I have but rounded the corners, so nothing can scratch, then a hard brush, the rest with compressed air, for the knife I have a compressed air impact wrench, greetings from germany

    Just a quick question is there a reason why you wouldn’t pressure wash the underside of the mowers when washing outside and instead do that inside while it’s dry?

    • @fillslawncare
      @fillslawncare  Před 3 lety +1

      I sometimes do but not always. Usually do a good enough job scraping under the decks for me to have no need of washing underneath

      That's a very broad question. But short, very condensed version: buy a mower, Trimmer, blower, rake, bags. Go door knocking asking if they need any lawn services. Charge a fair amount. Get clients on weekly lawn care services (mowing). From there, it's all about improvement.
