"Blizzard Prep! Gearing Up for a Storm"

What happens here

Stanley and Zakk have a conversation discussing the urgent need to maintain and prepare all snow removal equipment before the next snow event. Key points include replacing a 'gelled up' fuel filter on a Kubota skid steer, thoroughly greasing all pivots and moving parts, checking tire conditions, and ensuring the correct snow pusher is available for the Hyundai loader to prevent damage from hitting curbs. They emphasize the importance of preventative maintenance and having suitable attachments readily available to avoid delays during snow operations.

Goal: Understand and prioritize maintenance and attachment tasks for snow season.
