Winter Equipment Maintenance

We are currently in the midst of servicing our equipment fleet. Each off-season we take the time to thoroughly inspect each unit and perform the necessary services to ensure the entire fleet will be ready for the Spring.


Here is a look at our "Lastec" pull-behind rough mowing unit. It is easy to notice the wear and tear this unit receives annually.














In addition to the usual winter services of replacing worn bolts, bearings and belts, we have begun removing each mowing deck unit to breakdown and refurbish.



To start, we completely cleaned the deck surface, stripping and removing the old paint. Once all the old paint was removed, we applied a primer layer to the deck, followed by fresh paint.
















While this service is not peformed on a regular basis, perodically painting equipment will provide the unit with an enhanced look that will be noticed by Members and Employees alike. Members will appreciate a course and maintenance staff that respects equipment and employees tend to exhibit an enhanced sense of pride when operating a well-maintained mower, which enhances the overall quality of work.
