What’s in it

AI summary Companies that make farm equipment must provide parts, software, tools, and manuals to independent repair shops or equipment owners. These items must be available at fair and reasonable costs so people can fix their own machinery. This rule ensures that anyone authorized to repair the equipment has the same information and tools as the original manufacturer.1
