Welcome letter

Dear New HARDI® Owner, 

Thank you for purchasing your new HARDI® product and welcome to the ever-increasing family of proud HARDI® owners. 

HARDI® is the leading sprayer company in offering growers strong, reliable products made for the widest range of 
applications worldwide. Quality, reliability, and resale value make the HARDI® product line the preferred product line of 
customers both in North America as well as worldwide. Our guiding principle is to provide the highest level of customer 
satisfaction and long term value in the marketplace today. We have developed a very high level of customer loyalty in the 
marketplace which we are very proud of and strive every day to maintain and to continue to grow.

HARDI® is your specialist in spraying and we spend all of our time and keep all of our focus on spraying. We do not share our 
resources between other types of products or compromise on anything in providing the best quality sprayers to the market 
today. We can provide the latest in technology with our products if desired, or allow them to operate with the technology 
that you already use on other products in most cases. You get to decide that, and what best suits your needs. We feel that 
you, our customer, are the best suited to answer that question for your operation. Either way, you decide, and we will try and 
help make it happen for you.

Our broad spectrum of product offerings, from the ruggedly simple models we build to our highly sophisticated models, 
the built-in HARDI® strength and reliability ensures a low cost of ownership. HARDI® sprayers are all based on a functional 
design concept of being as simple to operate as possible and to meet our customers’ requirements for all their application 
needs.

Please take the time to thoroughly read the Operator’s Manual before using your equipment. You will find many helpful hints 
as well as important safety and operation information. 

Some of the features on your HARDI® sprayer were suggested by growers. There is no substitute for “on farm” experience 
and we invite your comments and suggestions. If any portion of this instruction book remains unclear after reading it, 
contact your HARDI® dealer or service personnel for further explanation before using the equipment. 

For Product, Service or Warranty Information please contact your local HARDI® dealer.
