To Operate Machinery Sensibly
Farmers are always in a big
hurry when the good spring
weather arrives. As a result, they
operate their tractors and other
machinery at too high a speed.
This presents safety hazards and is
the cause of too many accidents.
Gram drills and com planters are
designed for accurate planting, if
operated at a normal rate of speed.
Often in the rush of things, we
travel too fast and the planting job
is disappointing. We urge farmers
to take the time to properly
prepare and adjust their
machinery and then drive at a
speed that will give good per
formance. The speed is listed on
the manufacturers directions on
many pieces of farm machinery.
Take time to be safe and satisfied.
