Did some maintenance this weekend

[Woodsplitter67]

Worked on my equipment this weekend. The splitters got the oil changed and the filters cleaned. I did the carburetor bowls and added the tru fuel.

I sharpened 7 loops.

Serviced the saws. My sons 435 is taking a beating. Hes working this thing like a rented mule. I bought it for him when he was 13.. now that hes 16 and getting to be man size hes working the sae hard. I let him use my pro saw.. 550xp a several times while I was using the 562xp for some larger stuff. The saws got cleaned up, plugs, filters and fresh chain.

The equipment will probably sit for another 4 months but when its tome to go its all ready

I won't be processing much more until it really cools down. Likely just some chain sharpening and grinding some small nicks out of my splitting axes. 4 Wheeler is due for some fluid changes. I don't have nearly as much gear as you so its less to maintain but more work to process.

Sometimes I feel guilty, I should be servicing sooner. I stopped processing at the end of march The splitters sat for a number of months until I got to picking away at the maintenance.

We farm, work full time, train dogs, travel a bit. Stuff gets put on the backburner sometimes and I am learning to not let it get to me too bad.

I have sharpened the chains and cleaned the air filter on the gas saw but that's about it.
I'll only be using it again in February or so when I have space to fill in my shed.

The yard stuff (mower, weedwhacker, blower) will get cleaned (air filter and general for all), and its oil changed (mower) after the leaves are done in fall.
