I Walked Away From My Company- Then this happened....

What happens here

Zakk begins the process of maintaining the fleet, starting with a Hyundai HL940A XT loader. He fuels the loader and notes that it has an auto-greaser, reducing the need for manual greasing in certain areas. He also fuels a Mecalac loader and an ASV skid steer, and greases both the Mecalac and ASV.

Goal: Perform essential fueling and greasing of snow removal equipment.

  • ASV Skid Steer ASV — Snow removal operations and maintenance demonstration
  • Fuel hose — Transferring fuel to equipment
  • Grease Gun — Applying grease to lubrication points
  • Hyundai HL940A XT Loader Hyundai — Snow removal operations and maintenance demonstration
  • Kubota R530 Loader Kubota — Snow removal operations and maintenance demonstration
  • Kubota SVL 97-2 Skid Steer Kubota — Snow removal operations and maintenance demonstration

  • SDLG L918F Loader SDLG — Snow removal operations and maintenance demonstration
  • Fuel — Powering the heavy equipment
  • Grease — Lubricating moving parts of equipment

dive into it. >> All right, everybody. It's uh another day. Yeah, we got snow overnight. Now I need to go through or now it's refuel and grease everything and check over everything, make sure stuff's not broken from the event and whatnot. It this thing work like a dream. Him. Me learning how to plow with backing up with mirrors. I know every like most people who have a salter on the back, they know how to back up with their mirrors. I'm not used to it. I'm used to seeing through the back window to back up. So, it was a learning curve for me, too. But that was another reason I didn't really film cuz I was concentrating on not hitting things. But yeah, now I got to swap to Sam's truck cuz his has the bulk tank on it. Mine don't have the bulk tank anymore. Erica's short bed. You have to pull it out for salter and BSI and all that other stuff. So, take you along and go out, go through the equipment, refuel everything. All right. >> System one, break your company down into its components. Identify the different components that make your company what it is. What operates it? For us, example, we've got to have maintenance, we've got to have bidding, we've got to have sales, we've got to have management. All of these different components of our company are broken down. And then system two is find someone that has a natural inclination to handle those systems, put them in place. Now, train them to become the best version of themselves they possibly can be, and put the belief in them that they have that potential. A lot of guys don't believe that they can pull it off, but they actually can pull it off as long as they have a cheerleader in their back corner telling them they can do it. System three, identify potential in people, not just the natural inclination. System two is find the natural inclination, put them in place, but then identify the potential of people. What do what does what do people have in themselves that they don't even know they have in themselves? What you just witnessed with Zach saying that he was learning how to operate that plow truck is Alex and Timmy and I believing in the potential of Zach to become the next operator of that piece of equipment. He doesn't even know he's he can do that, but we've seen and identified that he has that potential. So, those are the first three systems you need to do. Break your company down into its different components. Find people with a natural inclination to manage those components. Put the…
