Your power is OFF...
and your generator DIDN’T start.
Now your 40,000 Birds or
2,000 Pigs are DEAD.
Top 5 reasons why your generator may overheat and fail this summer...
• Low Coolant level - engine will not cool properly if coolant is below the core.
• Dirty radiator fins - must be free of dirt, dust, feathers, paper, or debris.
• Sufficient air intake - motorized shutters are strongly recommended.
• Improper coolant mix - 50/50 antifreeze and water will ensure max cooling from coolant.
• Faulty exhaust shutters - must open freely with no flow obstructions.
Here are the 5 things we’ll do to help you prevent this disaster...
• We’ll perform our “Generator Readiness Evaluation ” worth $175 for FREE.*
• We’ll detect your potential problems quickly with our trained technician team.
• We’ll dispatch our technician with a service van stocked with the most popular service parts
• We’ll recommend a “Preventative Maintenance Program” that best suits your needs.
• We’ll respond to emergencies you have 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Report Supplied By USDA
Over night exports offered support to
wheat bids. The warm temperatures have
kept the spring wheat harvest at a rapid
pace. Harvest is listed at 82 percent com
plete. Com ended the day mix but the
firmer bids were due to friendly weather
in the western corn-belt and the drop in
the crop ratings. Ratings were posted at
50 percent down 10 percent which was
good to excellent. Soybeans were sharply
lower despite good to excellent crop rat
ings which were posted at 48 percent
down 8 percent. Wheat was steady to 10

lower to I cent higher. Sorghum was
