Hired Hand has taken every effort to launch the agricultural industry into the 21st century. Our
latest effort is the System 1000 Power Curtain Eight Stage Controller. This versatile controller
offers many of the features found in much more expensive controllers, while maintaining its
entry level price. These features include:
ë 8 stages of heat and cooling--plus one variable speed fan stage. (Second variable
speed stage optional.)
ë Automatic daily temperature reduction (ramping).
ë Automatic tunnel ventilation control.
ë Pullet curtain light control with night vent option.
This controller is complex and powerful, but easy to operate on a day to day basis. It is very
important to read and understand this manual prior to installing, programming, or operating the
System 1000 Power Curtain Controller.
