What To Bring

  • Complete equipment

Before Drop-Off

  • Avoid repeated starting fluid.
  • Avoid repeated cranking when the battery or starter is struggling.
  • Bring the equipment assembled.
  • Use fresh fuel.

Send a repair request before bringing equipment. Ask about pickup and delivery for larger equipment.

Questions

Can you work on a tiller that has been sitting?

Yes. Let me know how long it has been parked and whether fuel was left in it.

Do I need to clean the tines first?

A basic clean-off helps, but do not take the machine apart.
