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.

[@bruce2081]

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

[@marymasden6616]

I don't know anything about what you showed us today I learnt alot you answered alot of my questions so thank very much I enjoyed the video alot.

[@chichitex1252]

Great video. Your efficiency and organization didn’t surprise me a bit!

[@smokeylovesfire1589]

Your attention to detail is mind blowing!

[@fillslawncare]

Thank you

[@mitchelltowns6185]

Thanks for the video. This motivated me to maintain my equipment more frequently

[@fillslawncare]

Thanks for watching. Glad it was motivating 👍🏼

[@gretaknebel8495]

Finally found your maintenance video. Great info. I have a Hustler zero turn mower with 60” deck. Love my mower. I’ve had it almost 10 years. Still running great. Thanks for the reminders on keeping equipment serviced.

[@lydiaravenstijn5671]

Love the fact that you are so clean.

[@lucasleon3887]

I am from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 this is the best video I ever seen for lawncare.

[@fillslawncare]

Thank you:)

[@julibugable]

You do a great job of taking care of your equipment. I watched this just for entertainment, but bought a used Stihl trimmer at a garage sale and had to look at this video to learn how to restring it.

[@martinoberti9723]

Wow, very professional 👍 compliments from Italy, good work Fill 👋

[@fillslawncare]

Thank you 😊

[@jcbaily5559]

A fascinating video, very educational and you seem to have all the tools you need for doing your work. You seem very disciplined with the needed flexibility to take pride in what you do. More power to you! I look forward to your next video as I am trying to catch up as I am new to your channel. Have a great day!

[@doublewide6]

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]

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).

[@auntieemem1348]

You are much more thorough than the usual - incredible work - you seem like an earth sign - Virgo orTaurus - great show

[@fillslawncare]

Thank you Auntie :)

[@NallaZsade]

I love this type of video! I'm anxious to see your equipment and how you maintain it. I'm gonna learn something today!

[@oliverdavis6030]

Great video my brother 🙏. You continue to do it this way 👍. God bless you 🙏 my brother.

[@mitch9509]

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

[@fillslawncare]

I've considered that. Haven't really had time to try them

[@mitch9509]

@@fillslawncare if you get the speed feed heads.... it will save you way more time than it spent to go buy them and install them... they will save you that much time in less than a week of using them

[@bgurney27]

Great video! Like this vlog style format!!

[@fillslawncare]

Thank you. Might do some more later when season dies down

[@jameshedrick605]

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

[@eileenharris937]

Thanks for all the info. Bless you.

[@THEWRITESTUFF61]

Very informative...Thank you.

[@kenlong5033]

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.

[@quixstation145]

very nice maintenance techniques you have there , was wondering where you bought your zero turn jack lift, nice tool to have around

[@eacajero]

Both trimmer lines are good! I use both!

[@upscalelawncaremonroe408]

Real good looking set up my friend, I subbed and will be following!!

[@fillslawncare]

Thanks brother. I appreciate it. I got you back 👍🏼

[@ziegenwilly]

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

[@bigsonslawncare]

Love the trailer! New Sub!

[@fillslawncare]

Thank you. Have a great weekend brother 👍🏼

[@pristinegrounds]

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.

[@fillslawncare]

Thanks for the tips

[@k8ble]

did you have to do anything different using your edger?. was there something added on? thanks, you do a great job and have a good attitude.

[@rodkramer8879]

Did you do anything to your Hustler seat to keep from having to put it all the way forward?

[@Cakin]

Good video, can you do a video on adjusting the valve on the timemaster? I have two and can't find any good video on it. The feeler gauge part is obvious but the lead up I'm not sure what to do

[@fillslawncare]

Haven't had to adjust them but when it comes time, I will

[@TerrellWillams]

My setup is extremely similar!

[@fillslawncare]

That's awesome!

[@Barbarra63297]

I have an MTD Mini Rider 30 and I have always wondered about pressure washing it but was afraid of getting things wet that shouldn't be wet, is it ok to wash it like you did yours?

[@clarencewiles963]

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.

[@stevehoward1590]

I'm thinking about starting my own lawn care business on the side. What would be your best ideas to get underway of you don't mind me asking. 👍

[@curtismurrell4995]

Did you ever go to speed heads? This is the first time I have ever seen someone manually load line heads before.

[@louisehardt1313]

What brand pressure washer. ?

[@josezenteno6861]

That em2 looks dope

[@fillslawncare]

Thanks it's a work in progress haha

[@got2getit204]

How do that bagger system work?? Because it’s not the one with the little motor on the side I forget what they call it!

[@fillslawncare]

Air and gravity

Where did that random Briggs and Stratton engine come from? Lol Good video

[@fillslawncare]

Pulled it from a rider that I got for free

[@kx5008]

What kind of mower jack do u have?

[@fillslawncare]

It's a Mo-Jack

[@santapanrohani6710]

Good

[@fillslawncare]

Thanks for watching

[@steelhulk360]

Can you tell me what size screws you se to hold stuff on trailer wall

[@fillslawncare]

12 x 1 1/4" wood screws

[@joshscott5416]

Interested to know why you don't run your covers on the timemaster ? Is it just for cleaning convenience ?

[@fillslawncare]

Yes easier to blow off pulleys after each use or end of day

[@MrMasterjaye]

Liked and subscribed 👍🏻 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]

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

[@MrMasterjaye]

@@fillslawncare I wasnt to sure if that was something you shouldn't do or if it was frowned upon to spray directly near the blades.

[@sebastienhaimric]

How come you sprinkle water all over the motor, coils, cable etc? It may rust and then malfunction. I have a tractor but I would never dare to do that for fear of breakdown despite the fact that I have a blower ...

[@colesteffens5402]

Hey fill, I know this wasn’t in your video but I was wondering, where did you get your stihl tachometer from. I would like to purchase one. Thanks

[@fillslawncare]

I got mine while working at a hardware store that sold and repaired Stihl equipment. Yoi can sometimes get them on eBay

[@kid5819]

Pretty gnarly setup, but dont bother with the multiple trimmer heads, buy a speed-feed head for 30 bucks

[@sharco215]

Why you don’t use your pressure washer for clean the bottom and blades?

[@fillslawncare]

That's a great idea and I do that periodically 👍🏻

[@receitassimples63]

Cool

[@fillslawncare]

Thanks for watching 👍🏻

[@kx5008]

How come you don’t use echo speed feed trimmer heads?

[@fillslawncare]

Never tried one

[@kx5008]

@@fillslawncare they’re really efficient!

[@travismchilders6727]

The only way

[@jennyk544]

Restring them both at the same time

[@fillslawncare]

Thanks

[@carlosjesusalicea9871]

How I can start a Lawn Care Company? What I have to do?

[@fillslawncare]

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.

[@mindyj9275]

Wow you have ethanol free fuel? Lucky!!

[@fillslawncare]

Yeah we are lucky to have pumps all around us selling efree fuel
