Behind center distance (BCD) sounds technical, but it explains why one cutting unit feels “right” and another never quite does. @MTrentManning of @reelturftechs breaks it down in a way that actually clicks. It’s not just sharpness. It’s geometry. turfops.beehiiv.com/p/from-bedknif…

If I'm being honest, I think i like when things fail so i can think up of a nifty short term fix to get by while the replacement is on a 6-8 week back order 🙄. 316 stainless so it's not as heavy as it looks. The best part? It works flawlessly. #reelturftech #golflife

"The quality of cut is terrible, why can't you get the machines to cut properly? Why can't you set the machines properly? Why are you grinding so often?" .....meanwhile.....#reelturftech #golfmaintenance #golfequipmenttechnician

Here's a perfect example of cause and effect...and here's the long term solution. Been struggling with these couplers for a while so I'm looking forward to seeing the longevity of this modification. #reelturftech #equipmentmangement #BlueCollar

I have no issues with after treatment systems but when these machines are handed over to operators and techs who despite constant sensitization can't understand the importance of allowing the regeneration to complete, everyone's job then becomes harder. Lucky i caught this early.

The Head Mechanic keeping a close eye on the fairways and making sure everything is dialed in at The Montgomerie Golf Club ahead of a few key events this week. We are seeing a 4mm deflection between BHOC and AHOC but the surfaces are pristine. ##reelturftech #toro

I think I got my money's worth out of this knife. #reelturftech

Not the most attractive as we are still recovering from a major renovation which involved an aggressive scarification and a pass with the @CampeyTurfCare recycling dresser, but im really happy with the ACA after re-configuring the mowers with @tcsturfequip.

@HectorsShop @GCSAA Im still trying to figure out why you can purchase new seals but not the wear plates. I've lost plenty sleep because of these motors 😆

Project X: Hydraulic Motor Cut-away. Here's before and after. Wanna talk about tight tolerances. The hydraulic motor is now ready for the next episode of @GCSAA Inside the Shop Hydraulic Series.

This $20 part will make you replace a $1000 fuel pump on your Toro HDX workman if you don't know what to look for.

@jaydotseedot What scan tool are you using?

P226D,P2454 codes on a 3300 groundsmaster. Live data and a little wiggle test. Oh hello rubbed through wires.

@jaydotseedot 🙄...what's that about the heat?

😬 I’m all about the heat…the grass not so much

This is a beast of a machine. I'm not a fan of the automatic throttle control but we will see how it goes. New @toro GM4500 thanks to @DeltaTurfCare. Now....let's cut some grass.

When dealing with these electrical gremlins you have to understand the relationship between voltage and load and how one can affect the other. This can also help you figure out what direction to go on your complicated wire diagrams. #equipmentmanagement #automotiveelectronics

It's that time of the year again.

A strong start to next week by using our time efficiently, without affecting golf or ball roll, while still achieving the best results for the turf.

🚨Announcement Video🚨 Cutline is King is now a BOOK and it's FREE. 289 pages. 45,902 words. Always evolving. I've done Cutline is King 22 times over the past 3 years, for 895 people, and for the last 2 years I've been converting it to PDF. Download: sipgrinder.com/support/cutlin…

An investment in knowledge pays the best interest. Thanks Scott Purdy and #bernhardgrinders for always stopping by to refresh the guys and their grinding techniques. #reelturftech

@jwilkinson__ Nice...i use bedknifes too frequently for these to ever consider warping lol

@caine246 Looks great Matthew, we hang ours vertically as over time laying flat the metal could warp or distort

The smallest things make the biggest difference. This bedknife rack means business 🤛#equipmentmanagement #reelturftech
