Abstract/Contents:Profiles Fred Peck, technician at Fox Hollow and The Homestead, two city-owned courses in Lakewood, Colorado. States that "Peck troubleshoots all equipment weekly, even if there is no report of damage or other problems, and every machine is serviced regularly. Even equipment with small engines are equipped with Hobbs meters and are maintained with the same vigor that goes into every piece of heavy machinery." Explains that "to help the city get the maximum amount of use from its equipment and to help prevent spending resources unnecessarily on aging machinery, Peck has developed a system to forecast the life cycle of every piece of equipment."
