The chart below, developed from results of Farm-A-Syst projects in Wisconsin, Minnesota, Arkansas, Maine and Louisiana, summarizes various water-quality hazards. "On more than 40% of the farms the petroleum storage area posed a high risk of pollution. That''s more than pesticides, fertilizer, livestock waste or any of the other potential sources," says Jackson.New reasons for concernPetroleum fuels contain several toxic compounds, including benzene, toluene and xylene -- all considered carcinogens. A gallon of spilled gasoline contains enough benzene to contaminate 2,000 cubic feet of soil or 10 million gallons of water.

I finally found the solution the night I finished the table. It was now pitch black. Leaving the commons behind, I kick-started my motorcycle, and rode toward the sliding door of the warehouse. When it opened the horizon of the whole world seemed to lift. Suddenly I was overcome with a desire to ride as fast as possible. At 95 mph a critical speed is reached. Under that, everybody you pass thinks "What a jerk, I hope he kills himself," but over 95 people see you fly by, and without meaning to at all, they step on the gas. It''s like you''ve inspired the race in them. That night every car behind me moved faster than before.

The EFI system contains an electronic control unit that can monitor the equipment''s functions, including dash displays (engine temperature, speed hours); analog/digital inputs (vehicle incline sensor, safety interlocks, vehicle and/or blade speed); diagnostics (air cleaner status, oil change intervals, operator safety warnings); and electronic governor/throttle controls (ground speed control, cut height ''control).The 725 cc Command Pro 26 EFI produces 41.6 lb.ft. torque at 2200 rpm, has a compression ratio of 9:1 and utilizes Kohler''s nickel-silicon plated Power-Bore cylinders for longer cylinder life.

Though light in weight, Airbor magnetic drill has a powerful 1.6-hp air motor and 1,600-lb magnetic holding strength. With its extra rack, stroke length is extended to 10 1/4 in. Annular cutter capacity is up to 2 1/16 in. diam. Geared chuck adapter converts the unit to a standard drill press. The Slugger Air Force pneumatic drill, at 24 lbs, 6 1/4" high, is useful for confined area drilling. The drill''s features include a permanent magnet that turns on or off by air power, a cutter capacity of up to 1 1/16" diameter x 3/4" depth and the ability to use ShortSlugger cutters and frame cutters. These cutters'' geometry allows the operator to drill multi-layered truck frames in a single pass.
