SHAKES ARE OPET-AIR DRIED

The wise builder knows thst

Jlqlure dries best o . o

There really isn't much of a trick to drying a pre-stained cedar shakeif you €ue willing to take the time and go to the trouble of doing the job right. Dozens of experiments have been tried in an efiort to ffnd a "quick" way to do the iob. Hot lights, hot air, and hot ideas of a dozen kinds have been tried. we at colonial cedar company have studied all of the short-cut suggestions, and we've found that nothing beats good old mother nature for drying shake stain.

So we just use mother nature.

We take the time to "hang Fitite Shakes out to dry" in the good old fresh air. Takes a lot of doing, a lot of storing, a lot of waiting; but it assures us that we are giving Fitite Shakes the best stain coverage in the business. Have you compared Fitite Shakes with the rest?

Now, when.piling loads, the driver of a Ross Fork Truck can hold the truck right where he wants it even on a grade, Automatic Brake Lock... another advanced-engineering feature of Ross Fork Trucks. .leaves the driver free to manipulate the load. Result? Faster piling, safer piling and neat, square piles... even on rough ground.

Ffere's how the Ross Automatic Brake Lock works: As the truck approaches.the pile, the driver flips an elecric switch. When truck is in desired position, he applies the foot brakes as usual. The brakes lock automatically and stay locked when he removes his foot from the brake pedal. This leaves him free to concentrate his attention on hoisting and tilting operations because the uuck cannot creep forward or backward. When ready to back away from the pile, he again flips the electric switch, unlocking the brakes and returning them to normal foot-pedal operation.

Think of tbe time this Ross feature can save for you! It's another of a long list of features developed and pioneered by ROSS. Remember, look to ROSS lrsr for the latest!
