(NAPSI)-With the right tools, you can transform a country home into the estate of your dreams. Here's an equipment primer with an easy way to remember all the steps-the letter "M."
You need Machines that let you:
• Mow: a riding lawn mower. With all the comforts of a car, like cup holders, power outlets and sunshields, you may never want to get off. Don't let the smooth ride fool you; these mowers tackle tough terrain without sacrificing cut quality. A utility cart adds versatility.
• Maneuver: a zero-turn radius mower. These commercial-grade mowers turn on a dime and cover multiple acres in little time. Rocks and debris can't stop a Seven-Iron deck made of seven-gauge steel that's nearly a quarter-inch thick, letting your mower tackle almost any terrain.
• Manicure: portable power equipment. Use an edger and blower to keep non-grassy areas neat and clean; a chain saw to remove greenery and recycle it into firewood. Keep shrubbery under control with a hedge trimmer.
• Mobilize: utility vehicles. A Gator utility vehicle or utility ATV carries what you need over all sorts of terrain while limiting impact on the land. It's small and maneuverable yet tough enough to do the job.
• Maintain, Manipulate and Move: a compact utility tractor gives you the power and versatility to do any job, from building a fence to digging a pond. New equipment is easier to handle than ever and some companies even design controls for first-time buyers. John Deere offers a Performance Tracking System that looks and operates like a car dashboard and features "smart" controls to keep the tractor from stalling and alert you to problems.
After purchasing, Match machines to tasks with attachments. Loaders, post-hole diggers, sprayers, tillers and snow-removal tools are among dozens available. The iMatch system on John Deere compact tractors lets you connect and disconnect attachments in seconds from the driver's seat.
It all starts with Money, but not as much as you might think. With a variety of financing options, package deals, discounts and revolving credit plans, dealers can get you the machines you need at an affordable price. Getting a machine with the best value means not only a sturdy, well-built machine but excellent maintenance service and parts service.
