Your fleet is like a sports team. When your equipment is well maintained and tuned for the task at hand, it will operate at its best. To keep your fleet in top condition, keep these principles in mind …
1. Keep track of your assets.
A top-performing team starts with a great roster. Toro’s myTurf™ fleet management system lets you create an equipment roster you can easily track and report on. The myTurf system keeps all the data you need in one place, such as equipment costs and acquisition dates. You can even keep track of key stats, such as engine power, carb requirements and more.
2. Stay current with preventive maintenance.
Just like professional athletes who train and stay in shape to prevent injury and damage, well-maintained equipment is less likely to have issues. With myTurf, you get automatic alerts to make sure preventive maintenance is done on schedule. Plus, with myTurf Wireless Hour Meters on your equipment, you don’t have to gather equipment hours – they report automatically.
3. Document and learn from past repairs.
Even the best teams have losses. That’s when they review their performance and identify ways to improve. Likewise, the myTurf system documents all repairs and builds a database you can refer to in the future, so you can track costs and learn from previous repairs.
4. Use cost reports to justify new equipment acquisition.
As much as a team prefers to focus on performance and the game, it must still be economically viable. The myTurf system gives you the cost reporting you need to justify new equipment additions and operating budgets.
5. Implement a user-friendly fleet management system.
Any team can apply these preventive maintenance best practices, but not everyone has the time or computer skills for a complex program. That’s why the myTurf system is easy to learn and use, even for first-time computer users. The entire system is online, so there’s no software to load — and all your history is protected, even if your computer crashes.
The bottom line for any team is all about performance. Toro’s myTurf system includes many features that increase your efficiency:
• Save parts orders for easy ordering in the future
• Access all manuals, service bulletins, service schedules, operator training videos, etc., for each equipment item
• Eliminate data entry with myTurf wireless hour meters on your equipment
• Use service schedules that are automatically loaded
• Simplify training through animated, narrated “how to” demonstrations that make training easy
