$20

I was greaseing my mower this morning and noticed I had 2 bolt's missing that hold my front wheel assist together after a little work we had the whole front end tore off. Ended up replaceing 6 bolt's and some gear lube. If I had'nt seen it it would have broke the casting off the front end.

I then went mowing had about 10 acres down when the rear 90 gear box on my Rowse lost and broke it's mounting bolt's snapped one u-joint and after a trip home it's ready for tommorrow morning. In all I spent about 8 hours turning wrench's today and only used about $20 in materials.I don't mind break downs if they are'nt costly..

That shows how important it is to be observant when doing routine maintenance like greasing. Sure can save big $$$ sometimes.

As long as you don't look to carefully. I always try to do prevent maintance, but sometimes it turn into a complete overhaul job.

I always feel the down time costs more than parts and repairs.
