​The Secret to Getting the Most Out of Your Equipment--Reading Your Manuals!

What if we told you that there is an easy and affordable (even free) way to ensure that you get the most out of your new equipment--and even protect your investment? What if we told you that it is so easy that you can do it from the comfort of your recliner? Guess what? There is! It’s simply reading your implement’s assembly, operator, and parts manuals.

So, why is reading your manuals so important? Many people who have purchased similar pieces of equipment before, simply figure they already know how to operate them. However, there is so much more information in our user manuals than simple operating instructions. Our manuals also include information on safe usage, tractor connection, troubleshooting, and maintenance, (including tips for lubrication, routine, and end-of-season maintenance). They also provide mechanical diagrams, parts numbers, and even warranty information to ease in parts purchases as the need arises.

Reading your manuals will not only inform you about machine operation but will also allow you to keep your piece of equipment in good working condition. It will give you a good understanding of the mechanics of your implement so that you can troubleshoot and even fix simple issues before they become problems. Reading your manuals ahead of operation will also save you time in the field should an issue arise, and as we all know, time is a valuable commodity in the field--especially the hay field! Most importantly though, reading your manuals will give you familiarity with yournew implement which will, in turn, keep you and those around whom you are working safe.

Manuals for all of our products can be found under the “ Information” tab on our homepage as well as on individual product pages. Hardcopies of manuals are also sent along with your implement when it is shipped or when you pick it up from our warehouse.
