Safety Side Markers For Fold-Up Implements

Safety Side Markers for Fold-Up Implements MISCELLANEOUS EQUIPMENT Miscellaneous 15-5-27 "They mount permanently and extend out past the widest part of the implement when the wings are folded," says Triple C Ventures of its new safety "side markers" for wide-wing equipment. "Our farming operation is spread out and we're on public roads a lot with cultivators and other wide equipment. We tried magnetic and clamp-on temporary side markers but they didn't work out. They were a lot of bother to put on and take off, and often weren't to be found when you needed them," notes co-inventor Betty Coulthard. "To solve the problem, we developed permanent markers that are always in position when the implement's folded for transport." The markers, one on each side, consist of a red fluorescent flag and a 12-volt operated light which ties into the tractor's flashing lights. They mount on the rigid center sectionand you can adjust them to stick outpast the longest shank on fold-up wings. They're mounted on flexible brackets so they'll rebound if struck by a solid object and will fit most any cutivator, disk or other wide-wing implement. The all-weather side markers sell for $289.95 (Canadian) per set. For the name of your nearest distributor, contact: FARM SHOW Followup, Triple C.
