| |
| John Deere has done it again! Fuel prices are soaring but thanks to a new fuel saving feature on the 5025 Series Tractors, we can save you money! |
| |
| Come to Hartland Equipment today and learn more about the new ECONOMY PTO. It's like overdrive on your car. It lets you run your equipment at the proper speed for maximum performance but at lower engine RPMs...SO YOUR FUEL COST IS LESS! Come to Hartland Equipment today to learn why you want us to have ALL OF YOUR BUSINESS! |
| |
 |
| The 540/540 Economy PTO allows customers to select the engine rpm that is needed for their PTO application. | |
|
| |
| The economy position provides 540 rpm to the PTO at 1700 engine rpm. The 540 Economy is ideal for any PTO application, from running a mower conditioner to a baler or a cutter, where full horsepower is not needed. Operating at lower engine rpm decreases customers' fuel costs during tasks. And the overall operating experience improves because there is less noise and vibration for the operator. |
| |
| A conveniently located lever allows the operator to simply change between 540 and 540E when conditions merit the opportunity to save fuel without affecting performance. For heavy-duty operations that require maximum PTO power, the PTO shift lever is placed in the 540 position, the PTO engaged, and the engine is run at rated speed of 2400 rpm. This selection gives 540 rpm to the PTO shaft and delivers the fully advertised horsepower at rated engine speed. |
| |
| The 540/540 Economy PTO offers all the features of the standard 540 rpm PTO and the safety interlock is a fool-proof measure provided to compensate for operator oversight. When the tractor is in economy, the engine is limited to 1700 rpm, preventing accidental overspeeding of PTO implements and protecting against binding the PTO shaft. The safety interlock also prevents accidental shifting of the PTO selector lever at engine speeds above 1700 rpm, which would lead to downtime to fix implements or drivetrains. |

| Seventeen-year-old Patrick a.k.a. “Shane” has always loved the outdoors, but due to his battle with ALL (Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia), he is unable to walk.

He will no longer have to wait for someone to take him to feed the horses, fish and hunt, because he is now able to get around on his own again. |

Team members from Hartland Equipment presented Shane with the keys to his new John Deere Gator and showed him how to operate it. Dressed in a John Deere shirt and cap, Shane was very excited as he drove his new John Deere Gator for the first time around his house. Following the presentation, Shane drove his new John Deere Gator around their family farm for an hour. |
