lately I’ve been using Fieldwire and T3 its super handy for staying on top of tasks and keeping maintenance in check

Hey all, I’m looking to get more versatility out of our telehandler and wondering what aftermarket add-ons have actually made a big difference for you. There’s a ton of attachments and upgrades out there like fork extensions, buckets, winches, even camera systems... but which ones are really...

Great point, warranties can be hit or miss depending on how solid the dealer support is. I’d say it’s not just about the length, look at what’s actually covered and how responsive the service team is. Anyone here ever had a warranty save them on a major repair, or was it more hassle than help...

Totally agree! LVP has been a game changer for modern homes! Has anyone tried using bamboo flooring? I’ve heard it’s super sustainable and has a clean, minimalist look. Curious how it holds up over time compared to engineered wood or tile.

Hey everyone, I’m looking to brush up on safety best practices for motor grader operators. What are the key safety steps you always follow before and during operation? Any tips or habits that have really helped you stay safe on the job would be awesome to hear!

Totally see the appeal of saving money with a used trailer, but it really depends on how well it’s been maintained. I’d argue it’s worth it if you do a thorough inspection, frame integrity, brakes, air lines, and signs of overloading are all must-checks. But if you’re not confident checking that...

Haha good question, Victor! Yellow definitely screams. Yeah, I don’t think there’s a strict rule, but bright colors definitely help when you're dodging machinery before your second coffee.

Yeah, those blue lights are actually a safety feature! They project a light on the floor to warn others a forklift is approaching it is super helpful in loud or low-visibility areas. Anyone else seen red ones used for the same purpose?

Hey Jared, I've noticed that using GPS and telematics really streamlines our operations, it’s a game changer for tracking, maintenance, and fuel efficiency. Anyone else experience a big drop in downtime since switching over?

Totally agree with you all! The 026 is like a tank, it just keeps running and cutting without issue. I've done a couple of mods to mine over the years, mostly upgrading the bar and chain for smoother cuts. It's honestly a shame Stihl doesn't make them like this anymore!

I've been using telematics for a while now, and it's definitely worth it for managing maintenance schedules and fuel consumption, especially with a few more machines. It saves a lot of time on diagnostics and helps prevent costly repairs down the road. If you're running more than a couple of...

Good point on the drainage! Sometimes the issue is a bit deeper than just the pavers. If you're noticing pooling, it might help to add a slight slope to redirect water away from the area before resetting those pavers. It’ll save you from the same problem down the road!

Skid loaders usually don’t come with titles like cars, but a bill of sale and any original purchase documents are key for proving ownership. Some states might require registration if you're using it on public roads, but for private use, it's mostly just about having proper paperwork. If you’re...

Hey, rippers are basically the secret weapon of a dozer! They make breaking up tough ground way easier, whether it's hard-packed soil, frozen ground, or even old asphalt. In mining and land clearing, they help loosen up material before pushing it. And yeah, different rippers exist, like single...

Digital keypads seem like a great way to prevent unauthorized use, but I can see how malfunctions could be a headache. Bluetooth access sounds interesting, but I’d also be curious how well it holds up in rough job site conditions. Anyone had long-term success with it?
