Tolono, Ill. — Martin Equipment is proud to announce its Tolono, Illi., dealership has been named a John Deere Certified Rebuild Center. This rigorous dealer certification process ensures the capability, process and execution of large, production-class model machine rebuilds are executed at the absolute highest level of quality.

Tolono joins four other Martin Equipment certified dealerships, including locations in Columbia, Mo., and Rock Island, Peru and Goodfield, Ill. All of our John Deere Certified Rebuild Centers offer customers a complete assessment of the condition of a machine, plus expert advice on rebuild options to ensure the work being done meets the specific needs of that customer’s business. Execution of the customized machine rebuild is planned, scheduled and designed to meet the customer’s capital expense needs without disruption to their operation.

“At Martin Equipment, we look at each customer’s business and offer custom, tailored machine options that work best for their business and bottom line. For some customers, that may be a new machine; for some, a used machine, and others, a rebuild of their existing machine,” said Kyle Logsdon, Tolono general manager. “It’s our team’s job to come alongside the customer to help make those decisions, and this certification provides our location with another valuable solution for their business.”

For each rebuild, factory-trained technicians at Martin Equipment’s Tolono dealership will assess the condition of the machine and provide expert advice on the work needed to meet the needs of the operation. The work is then customized to each customer – executed on schedule and on budget with as little disruption to their operation as possible.

John Deere Certified Rebuild Centers are committed to improving a machine’s look, feel and function to extend its life in an economical way. The result is a rebuilt machine customers can rely on, at a lower cost, as an alternative to buying a new machine.

As a fourth-generation, family-owned John Deere Construction and Forestry dealer, Martin Equipment provides a wide range of service and support solutions with a focus on extending the life of customer fleets while increasing productivity and efficiency.
