It’s harvest season. Please be extra cautious to keep everyone safe.
🚜 Slow down and stay alert — farm machinery often moves at slower speeds than regular traffic.
⚠️Be patient — passing may not be safe or legal in many situations.
📱Avoid distractions — put the phone down and keep your attention on the road.

Did you know?

If you have a Briggs & Stratton standby generator (12kW–20kW), you may notice it running tomorrow—and there’s no need to worry!

Every year on April 1st and September 1st, your generator performs an automatic “burn-off” test that runs for about 45 minutes. This important maintenance cycle helps remove moisture and carbon buildup to keep your generator running efficiently.

This test is different from the shorter weekly exercise cycles and is completely automatic—no action is needed from you.

So if you hear your generator running a little longer tomorrow September 1st, that’s just it doing its job!
