Nice, sounds smoother than most jobsite coffee runs 😄,

Honestly feels like lifts are getting smarter every year, those obstacle-detecting ones are cool, but I’m really curious how much those hybrid models actually save over a full shift

Hey everyone, Ran into an issue recently where a generator wouldn’t start, and it got me thinking.. what’s your go-to troubleshooting process when a genset acts up? In my case, the unit had power but wouldn’t crank. Checked the basics first: Battery voltage (looked okay at first glance) Fuel...

I’ve noticed uneven track wear or one side going faster than the other is usually a red flag saved me from a bigger repair catching that early.

Yeah you’ll notice it instantly when the controls feel off I had it happen once and I just stopped right away and double-checked before touching anything again.

VR makes practice safer.

When the blades kick on and it bogs down like that, I'd definitely check the deck belt and make sure nothing's binding under there, even built solid like the John Deere Z355E can lose power if hte deck's fighting back.

yeah, and i agree

Hey @PunchLister , I'd recommend Tenna - it's designed specifically for heavy equipment and mixed fleets (including non-powered attachments), offers real-time tracking + utilization insights + maintenance alerts, and integrates well across field and office operations.

Hey @Mark, I usually check mine every couple months or around 3,000 miles-whichever comes first. Hauling heavy loads through rough terrain wears 'em faster, so I'd rather be safe than sorry. A quick inspection goes a long way

@Archie Trucks If you're hauling heavy log trailers off-road, pintle hitches are usually the better call. They're rated for higher towing capacities-often 20,000 lbs+-and their articulation handles rough terrain way better than ball hitches. Yes, they can be noisier and have a bit more play, but...

I’ve seen SYNCHRO 4D paired with CAT VisionLink super slick when it works right and it makes tracking and scheduling way less of a headache.

it depends on how often your area loses power but a backup sure beats leaving a project half-done. Anyone here ever been stuck mid-job wishing they had one or found a clever workaround instead? Curious to hear those stories

we do third-party inspections twice a year and ita caught stuff we totally miss otherwise. .Honestly a small investment for a huge peace of mind. Anyone else ramp up inspections during busy seasons?

I’ve been eyeing Yardmax too for a balance of price and performance, but Iron & Oak definitely gets a lot of love for long-term durability. Has anyone done a side-by-side between a kinetic splitter and a hydraulic one? Curious how they stack up on speed and maintenance.
