MILFORD, Iowa, Feb. 10, 2004 (PRIMEZONE) -- Cycle Country Accessories Corp. (AMEX:ATC), the outright leader in developing and manufacturing select custom-fitting accessories for the all-terrain vehicle (ATV) and other diversified industry products, unveiled their innovative new Electric Blade Angle Kit at their factory. The patent pending kit allows the rider to swivel the blade while remaining seated on the ATV. The plowing process becomes much quicker and more efficient when the angling kit is utilized.
The New Electric Blade Angle Kit will work on Cycle Country's Work Power Universal Push Tube regardless of the blade size or whether it is a manual lift, electric lift or winch lift. The kit allows the rider to remain seated while rotating the blade from straight -- to left -- to right while plowing. A convenient handlebar mounted rocker switch allows the rider to direct the blade angling.
"Cycle Country continues to lead the way in inventive and ground-breaking accessories for the ATV," said Mr. Ron Hickman, CEO and President of Cycle Country Accessories. "This option is a natural upgrade for the thousands of owners who have purchased our blades in the past, as well as a convenient option for new customers. Our distributors' response to our initial announcement has been very positive and we look forward to launching this product at the Dealer Expo 2004."
The angling kit along with other original products will be displayed at the Dealer Expo 2004 industry trade show February 14, 15, and 16, 2004 in Indianapolis, Indiana.
