We are expanding our "try before you buy" programs. Last year we built a Utility Vehicle demo course. This spring Chris will be available for on-site demonstrations of lawn care equipment. If you are in the market for a new lawn tractor or Zero Radius Turn mower please call Chris to arrange a demonstration at your home or job site.

We have introduced our "Commercial Care Partnership Program" to minimize down time for commercial lawnmowers. Please click for more information.

We are offering "We Care Winter Care" service specials twice each year. In the late winter we service lawnmowers and in the fall we service generators and snowblowers. Of course we have our annual tractor service available at your home or jobsite. All of these programs are available for a flat fee and help ensure your equipment is ready to go when you need it. Please call Dave for more information.

COMMERCIAL CUTTERS DAY - March 22, 2006

CHAINSAW SAFETY CLINIC - April 8, 2006 1:00 P.M. to 4:00 P.M.
The high price of oil has caused many people to start burning wood. Unless they buy fitted wood they will need a chainsaw. Whether you have used a saw for years or you are considering your first purchase this clinic can help keep you safe. We will have manufactures representatives on hand to discuss maintenance and safe operation of chainsaws. All new chainsaws purchased this day will receive a free spare chain and all safety apparel will be 15% off this day.

Gary Balducci will be the primary instructor. Safe operation, equipment maintenance and driving techniques will be featured.

CHIP, SPLIT AND DRIVE DAY - April 22, 2006

If you are considering a Utility Vehicle, Chipper or Wood splitter, this is the day to try out these products and get a great deal. In the interest of keeping our customers safe, we will be offering15% off all safety apparel. Once again we have invited Joe Bolf, a chainsaw artist, to demonstrate chainsaw carving.

SERVICE
Due to popular demand we are adding another road service vehicle and mechanic. The new van will be equipped to do more extensive repairs than we were able to perform in the field previously. This addition should improve our response time when you need service. If your tractor is due for its annual service, please call Dave to schedule an appointment.

If you did not sign up for our We Care Winter Care program now is the time to dig out your lawn care equipment and make sure it runs. We recommend changing fluids and filters and sharpening the blades before the mowing season. Please don't wait until May to find out your mower needs to be serviced. We will be swamped with repair work if everyone waits until the lawn needs to be mowed and finds out the old mower doesn't run.

PARTS
If you prefer to service your own equipment you should visit our well stocked Parts Department. We have fluids, filters and blades at competitive prices, in stock for most of the mowers we sell. Our intention is to make our Parts Department more accessible to you. Dana and Scott are looking at ways to list more things on our website to allow parts shopping 24/7. Be sure and check our website often, we are going to have regular featured parts on the web. We have improved the Restoration Parts section of the website to make shopping from home even easier.

RENTAL
If you have projects requiring a mini excavator or a backhoe you can hire someone to do the job, purchase a machine or allow us to assist you with our rental equipment. We have the tools to help you get the job done for less. We have several tractor, loader, backhoes and several excavators available for rent. We will deliver the machine to your site ready to work and pick it up when you are done. When you are planning your next project give Beth a call and schedule a rental of one of our Kubotas. If you have been looking for a great deal on a low hour machine, we still have a couple of last year's machine available for sale at reduced prices.

TORO
Toro just introduced a new line of Lawn Tractors specifically designed for the home market. These units feature 18-22 hp Kohler engines, 42"-50" decks and automatic transmissions. Best of all: prices start at $1,399.00. We have again partnered with Toro to offer the Protection Plus Plans. These plans extend the coverage on your new machine to 5 years and they even pay for pick up and delivery for covered repairs. Please ask us for more information.

KUBOTA
Kubota's new BX-50 series and M-series have begun to arrive. Please stop in and see the latest from Kubota. Kubota has increased prices for 2006. However, we were ahead of the curve on many models. For instance, we made a special purchase of the L4400DTF tractor last year before the price increase. This popular 45 hp tractor with a front end loader is just $19,990.00 while they last. We also have a number of pre-price increase tractors available at significant savings. Of course, any of the prior model BX-series are on special and qualify for 0.00% for 36 month financing. If you are looking for a great deal on a great tractor stop by and check out the Kubota lineup at Union Farm Equipment, Inc.

RENT FOR PURCHASE
If you are wondering how to save enough money for the down payment and you need equipment to earn the down payment, Kubota may have the answer. Kubota offers a rent for purchase option on many of their machines. This program allows the buyer to make six rental payments, earn money with the equipment and within six months convert the rental to a purchase using Kubota's low rate financing. Simply fill out a credit application, wait for approval, write a check for the first months rental and you are ready to go. Best of all your loan payments are reduced because 100% of the rental payment is applied as a down payment. If after a few months, you decide this is not the right Kubota for you bring it back and we will find the right machine to get your jobs done. Please see one of our salesmen for

HONDA
Honda has just introduced a new steel deck Harmony II lawnmower with a Smart Drive Variable Speed Transmission and Roto-Stop. You no longer have to be dragged around by a self-propelled mower; you can vary the speed at your leisure and when you let go of the handle the blade stops, but the engine continues to run. This mower fits in nicely between the ever-popular Harmony II mowers and the top shelf, hydrostatic drive, Xenoy deck Harmony mowers.

Don't forget to take Honda camping this summer. The EU-series generators are super quiet, efficient and can make camp feel more civilized. These units are available in 1,000, 2,000, and 3,000 watt versions. If camp is even more remote take a WX10 water pump. This compact pump comes with a suction hose and strainer; can discharge into garden hose; and pumps up to 40 gallons per minute.

LANDPRIDE
Land Pride has expanded the Treker Utility Vehicle lineup for 2006. The new 10-series features a dash mounted shifter, a bench seat, a sealed transmission and a rear locking differential. We will have these units available in both two and four wheel drive. If you have not tried a Treker stop in for a test drive and see how comfortable a Utility Vehicle can be.

The new BH70 and BH80 are curved boom design with an available factory mechanical thumb. The factory thumb will also be available for the BH9000. These thumbs are a great addition if you plan to move rocks and logs with the backhoe. Best of all, this thumb adds less than $600.00 to the price of the backhoe.

We have financing available for most of the products we sell. Honda is offering 12 months - No Interest, No Payments on most products this spring. Kubota and New Holland have low interest financing with terms to fit most budgets. Also financing for Toro.
