Starting a thread to say: Hey guys and gals, I finally did it! After two years of development and testing, LevelUp™️ roller mounts for the John Deere QA5 are now in production, and available for pre-order here: https://t.co/Tnkx8aM4S4

@BillyBagwell @bradyhooks_ *53 bots -

Perfect example of maintenance quality improvement robots make: very wet past two weeks, and the other course has had to wait to put the 4700s out, to avoid ruts - they will be bailing hay when they finally can get out next Tuesday. The robots? Running every night…

[John Patterson, CTEM @JPsTurf]

@T_AppelEM Yes, please!

@RolandMcPhearso @GoodeTurf @MikeRollinsSIP The part number is LU-QA5RMK, and the vendor is SIP Direct GA LLC. If your dealer doesn’t have them set up yet, just have them give me a call.

[John Patterson, CTEM @JPsTurf]

@GoodeTurf @MikeRollinsSIP Yes, LevelUP roller mounts are still available through Turf Addict here: https://t.co/6kJMV1Jytf

LevelUP roller mounts are also available through your John Deere distributor. To date there are over 700 sets in use, with 100% positive reviews!

@T_AppelEM @CeresTurf_Inc I wonder if they’re using the same blanks… 🤔

Tip up grinding to get rid of ‘fat ends’ and make a uniform front face thickness on the @SIPGrinders1902 6000

[John Patterson, CTEM @JPsTurf]

Hey, @JRMTurfProducts - if there’s something in the mfg. process you can change to eliminate the ‘fat ends’ on my 104s, I’d appreciate it…

@truecylinder This is why I asked @MarkPilgerSIP to make the pin alignment system years ago, which he developed into the V pallet. Speed, with inherent precision. Nobody else can compete - by design.

Next week, 2/19 join the Assistant & Equipment Manager Committee at Oakland Hills for hands on reel grinding education from @HectorsShop. Thank you @JJGUS3376 & @PCuffare for hosting us and to our Industry Partners for helping keep this at $25 with lunch! https://t.co/1mRId4IVx2
