    I just mounted the same Green Touch Trimmer Rack today on the RampRack. I installed the Ramp Rack last week.

    Nice setup! One thing I never see anyone throw in their trailer is a basic first aid kit. I made one for each of my cars using a 50mm ammo can. It never hurts to have some neosporin and gauze in case of a bad cut, aspirin or Tylenol in case of a bee sting, rubbing alcohol, etc….. I did see a fire extinguisher in your stash.

My truck is ready to go and I am currently fixing my 2006 husqvarna ez4824 zero turn and going to get insurance I just got the quote for it. I have the llc and business checking/savings account opened up! Also I am saving to have a custom logo made. I am so close to getting started can’t wait! I wish I wasn’t so late in the season though

    Nice Set Up. Looks like you got all the necessary equipment.
    I was just wondering about thief.
    Example: The truck and trailer is parked out by the street or road. Some properties you can’t park in the driveway. So this means your out on the street.
    So your working away in the backyard and trailer is out on the street. Someone could easily take equipment.
    Would it not better for you to enclose the trailer? And lock it while your in the backyard.

    Nice looking set up. I just bought the stihl 135 and trying to figure out how charge them over the day, how do you like that bullbat? How many times can you charge your battery’s with it? Have you ever considered a truck inverter to charge the battery’s?
    Do you leave your 135s in the racks if it rains?
    Thanks, have a productive season.

    • @fillslawncareplus
      @fillslawncareplus  2 года назад +1

      This will be my first year using the bullbat to charge the batteries. I usually charge them overnight and they last throughout the day so no need to even charge them when running ny route. But I will be using that AL301-4 and bullbat this year and will keep you posted.
      I'll have to look up some truck inverters.
      I need to get some rain covers for the 135's.

    Nice setup am a huge fan of STIHL as well.
    just out of curiosity why didn't you try and move the jockey well so it can go to horizontal when towing ? At my work we have 6 or 7 different trailers and all of them have that and we have been told not to mess with the towball position at all really cause of how it's setup for towing loads of the vehicle. It's not a criticism just a thought and we tow anything from a 48 inch ride on to about 2 tons or so of mulch / greenwaste.

  • @bofkaycee1970
    @bofkaycee1970 2 года назад

    Hi fellow grass man. Lookin good. I’m having a hard time understanding the willingness to spend a huge fortune on battery powered everything? The battery life is not good at all with my FSA131r which is the first model offered, and the biggest battery for the hip pack. I get less than one hour of trim time then have no way to charge the battery all day or risk forgetting it at a customers house while charging during the job. Secondly hauling a tool around with its dead power supply seems foolish. Now I have to lock a tool up when I take my reliable gas trimmer out to trim. AND, if it rains while I’m taking a dump in the morning while the trailer is loaded with a battery powered trimmer, I’d lose a very expensive tool.

    Excellent video as always.
    Couple questions, how do you do your scheduling? I'm starting the year with 57 accounts, all Biweekly so scheduling is pretty easy. I leave Mon-Thru for lawn mowing, and Fri-Sat (and sometimes Sunday) for landscaping any other odd jobs. Are your 60 accounts weekly? And what was your reason for going to an open trailer from the enclosed? Thanks man

    • @fillslawncareplus
      @fillslawncareplus  2 года назад +4

      Yeah all my accounts are weekly. I eliminated bi-weekly a few years ago. Tuesday - Friday I mow. Monday I use to tune up my equipment & make RUclips videos. Saturday is for errands and day off. Sunday day off.
      The open trailer fits in my garage. Plus I recently moved 45 minutes away into a new city, so fuel economy is a priority this year.
