“We have to have the best equipment, and we’ve got that partnering with Hunter
Engineering,” says Pete Lombardo. Find out why at hunter.com/walkaway.

On average, a four-tire changeover at Blain’s Farm & Fleet in Morton, IL was taking up to an
hour and 15 minutes. Now, with the purchase of Hunter’s WalkAway® System, changing
and balancing is 40 to 45 minutes.

“That’s the telltale sign of the effectiveness of equipment,” says Blain’s manager Pete
Lombardo. “It actually works. It’s something we can actually utilize.”

As efficiency has increased, wear and tear on the technicians has decreased. With
WalkAway™, “We’ve been able to take some horsepower out of the job itself,” Pete adds.

Says tech Santana Garcia, “Thank you for making my job easier.”
