ALL TOOLS are provided by us. If there are special tools needed to work on our equipment, we either have it or will get it. This is usually a 7am-5pm job Monday through Friday. Some overtime and a few Saturdays would be required in our busy season (Spring and Fall). Most of the mechanic work would take place in our shop, although we do have several jobsites around IN, IL, and MI that may require traveling if we have some machinery go down on the jobsite.

We could also use a part time, Evening or weekend mechanic, that can do light mechanical duties, Brakes, tires, oil changes, greasing, lighting, preventative maintenance, etc.

PAY BASED ON REAL WORLD EXPERIENCE AND KNOWLEDGE, if you don't have experience that is fine, we can teach you many things, but also don't expect to be paid an experienced mechanic's wage, from the start.
