Innovation award for Canadian farmer’s wrench used to unblock combines

Having suffered an injury using a factory-supplied wrench, Canadian farmer Richard Arnold came up with his own solution.

Innovations in Canada were unveiled at last month’s big Agri-Trade Equipment Expo in Alberta.

One of the awards went to Arnold Innovations for their hydraulically-assisted cylinder-reversing wrenches, which grain growers can use to make clearing plugged combine harvesters an easier job.
