Little tight access site preparation for client project. The 1 tonne power shovel beats a shovel in our town. With all the volcanic rock.

Zero turn now back action, all ready for tomorrow's full day of mowing the outer townships.

A near full day today just in repairing the deck. Truing up spindles housings, replaced blades & spindle shafts and bearings again, after other ones had only 3 hrs on them! From doing a full service that morning all ready for spring season.

Added some extra bracing etc to stiffen up the original fabricated deck from any futher possible weak points. repaied the cracked welds and added a few more welds after the other days festivities.

Good thing i can fix my own equipment, not having to take it in to shops for work. The local mower shop, had parts again on hand. Helps in a fast turn around on repairs.

As mentioned in previous post, over grown blocks and lawns will attract a (Extra service fee charge) discussed prior to service commencement, HHMS discretion to wave or stand by the fee. Approval will be required at time of service! Before commencement of service for that day. Or re-arranging another day for service should Approval not received in time.

Regular servicing promotes better lawns and less w**d take over, minimising clippings etc ability to mulch clippings better thus making food for the lawn and looks less messy. Alot easier on equipment, less possibilities in damage to my or your equipment/ property. Good visibility for obstacles etc. Less time doing service if more Regularly done.

Anyway here's to the busy season. Spring is here.

With spring around the corner. Any vastly overgrown lawns will now attract a extra service fee cost henceforth (To cover any out of normal wear and tear, in doing/completing the service)

Ive tried to avoid doing this, but i can no longer, keep absorbing the costs in damage caused by doing overgrown blocks lawns etc. To my expensive equipment and the extra strain on equipment in doing vastly over growth jobs.

I totally understand, if you look at other avenues to mitigate your costs, in sourcing an alternative provider, for a service. Especially in this current financial climate. Likewise, I need to do the same. Hence the new service fee charge, to cover any out of abnormal wear and tear cost in damages, to my equipment during a overgrown lawn/blocks etc.

Thank you all, for your understanding. It isnt something l wanted to do, but unfortunately its now become a necessity.

This will be explained at time of service, if it will warrant the need for the extra service fee charge. This is primarily for very overgrown blocks, lawns etc. You will need to consent to the charge, prior to commencement of the service if your servicewill be effected by the additional charge. If no consent to continue is given, at the time, no service will take place on the day. Thus arranging for another suitable day may occur.

Kind regards,

Duane,

Been a little bit between posts, busy playing catchup with current works. Playing the weather game, normal for winter time and 90% predominantly outside works.

Lots of gutter cleans, Tree Trimming yards cleans, minor exterior repairs etc.

Picked up a real estate as thier repair man for the area.

Lots and lots of little jobs of late.

Couple bigger ones when weather is better. Also spring around the corner so the lawns etc will take off again.

Made some attachments for the skid steer also, made a stone grab and hitch attachment, will also inc a 12v or hydraulic winch setup for the dingo plate also.

After a call for help, after another handyman started the job... but then wasn't reachable to finish the job. Being time sensitive, I took it on to finish it off. So it is ready to go up for sale.

Some colour matching, texture matching, cutting in some new timbers to get a crisp edge. A bit of blending. Alsmost like original.

Client happy now its completed.
