Farm Workshop: Small Engine Maintenance and Repair

Want to learn how to keep the machinery for your farm operation or homestead running smoothly? Please join us at the SAHC Community farm for a small engine workshop.

We will host a classroom presentation and discussion followed by hands-on engine maintenance and repair work to help you feel empowered to tackle your own equipment issues and keep machines running better for years.

During the workshop, we will have a 55 hp tractor, two-wheel walk behind, Mule side-by-side and smaller engines on-site to reference.

Learn how to save time and money by doing your own repairs on small engines like lawn mowers and other small machinery. Diagnose and repair common problems with 2 and 4-stroke engines. Avoid costly repairs by learning maintenance, proper fluids, and appropriate settings to promote long lasting use. We will also facilitate a short discussion on the pros and cons of battery powered equipment and take a look at an electric lawnmower, W**d eater and chainsaw.

When: August 30 from 10 am to 1 pm

Where: SAHC Community Farm, 180 Mag Sluder Road, Alexander, NC 28701

Cost: $20
