Go for it. Forest thing is we independence need to push for the "Right to Repair Act". As far as getting around the corporate crony capitalists theres a few solutions. First of all find a brand that doesn't lock out and restrict the private tech so much and push your customers to buy those machines. Some pf the more accessible brands that don't need a laptop every time the operator sneezes are Crown, Toyota which allow most diagnostics to be done from the dash. The worst one out there are companies like Jungheinrich and I tell my customers to retire them early and get a Crown instead. They usually see ROI in short time in decreased service costs. Then there are some other in between companies where good friends can lend you a manual or you can get them from overseas where right to repair act has already been passed (talk to your own lawyer about the legality). Reach out to me direct for more assistance.

Fact of the week
At the opening ceremony of the Sydney Harbour Bridge in 1932, marching bands were instructed to walk out of step as they crossed the bridge. This unusual directive was given as a precaution due to concerns about the bridge's structural integrity during its early use.
