With mowing season in full swing, now’s the time to stay ahead of maintenance.

Zero-turn mowers are a go-to tool for landscapers, property managers, and homeowners across the country, but like any investment, they need proper care to perform at their best and last longer.

A simple maintenance routine can be the difference between a smooth, reliable cut and unexpected downtime when you need your equipment most.

Here are three key steps to help keep your mower running strong all season:

• Replace the air filter
• Replace the fuel filter and add a stabilizer
• Change the engine oil

From planning to final assembly, every step mattered bringing a 90,000-pound machine back to like-new performance.

A huge credit to the Riverside team for getting it done right.

Roads don’t rebuild themselves. Crews do.

From the milling operator cutting out worn pavement to the team, dialing in the mix and getting the surface back down before traffic picks up, every step takes coordination, experience and the right approach for the job.

That’s where methods like Cold-in-Place Recycling (CIR) and Full Depth Reclamation (FDR) come into play. Some jobs call for removing and reusing the surface. Others need crews to go deeper, rebuilding the base and strengthening what’s underneath. Either way, it’s about choosing the right process to keep work moving, keep costs in check and minimize disruption for drivers.

On this episode of The Track, Dennis Howard sits down with WIRTGEN GROUP’s Jessie Boone to talk through how crews decide what method fits.
