Every fall, the same phone call: a machine derated mid-field, on the one week it absolutely couldn’t. Most of those calls were preventable in August. This is the readiness pass that prevents them.

One visit covers multiple machines — a typical stop handles up to four units. Neighbors coordinate visits all the time; it’s the efficient way to do this.
Before the season, everything is schedulable: parts can be ordered calmly, a regen can complete properly, a drifting sensor can be replaced on your timetable. In October the same fault costs downtime at the exact moment the machine earns its keep — and every hour matters. The readiness pass converts emergencies into maintenance.
The calendar repeats: pre-harvest (now) · winter fleet season (November–December, when idle machines get their deep work done) · pre-planting (late February–March). Book the season you’re in; we’ll remind you about the next one.
Call or text 260-355-1123 with your equipment list — makes, models, and anything that’s been complaining. We cover a 100+ mile radius of Fort Wayne, we come to the farm, and every machine is quoted for what it actually needs. Details: how farm visits work.
It depends on what we find — a clean machine reads fast, and one with stored faults takes as long as the diagnosis deserves. Tell us the fleet size and we’ll scope the visit honestly.
Yes — and it’s the smart way to book. Clustered visits are how most of our farm work runs; a typical stop covers up to four units.
“Ran fine” is what every derated machine did the season before. The pass is cheap insurance precisely because it reads what the machine hasn’t said out loud yet.
