Winter is still hanging on, so I might be being optimistic that we will have any vegetation to mow this year, but I'm getting prepared anyway.
The motorcycle battery on my brush mower was shot when I bought the mower a couple of years ago. Being a cheapskate, I've been rip starting in lieu of getting a new battery. I figured I could save myself some money and a lot of effort if I rigged up a mount to use the battery out of my irrigation system, which only gets used a few hours a year. While I was at it, I installed a hookup for a battery maintainer, because I know it's going to sit a lot. Works great!
