And, with its corporate headquarters in Racine, Wisconsin, the OEM also knows a thing or two about getting through long, cold, winter months. So when the company tapped product managers Ted Polzer and Josh Gold-sworthy for an online seminar on preparing equipment for winter weather, I figured it was worth my attention. There's far more that goes into prepping equipment for cold weather than can be covered in a column. Still, there are some basic equipment moves for winter months that Polzer and Goldsworthy outline that contractors can make now, before the full brunt of winter is upon us. To start: remember that every different making size, type, as well as when it was built, the type of engine it has, and the environment it operates in, will require you to customize your cold weather preparations to a certain degree. If that seems like a lot to sort out, bear in mind that your local dealer is an excellent resource if you have any questions or need help in transitioning machines over for cold weather operations. |
