New MAXfield GPS Guidance Gives Growers Added Precision, Flexibility

The MAXfield Corner control panel provides real-time information and diagnostics for easy in-field
adjustments.

Omaha, NE, March 16, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Lindsay Corporation, maker of Zimmatic irrigation systems,
launches MAXfield GPS Guidance - GPS positioning for MAXfield Custom corner systems.

MAXfield GPS Guidance utilizes a Real Time Kinematic (RTK) correction signal, emitted from a built-in
base station, to provide a precise corner arm path, without the need for traditional buried wire guidance.

“Adding MAXfield GPS Guidance to a corner system provides additional flexibility during installation
and operation of the system,” says Tanner Hoffman, Zimmatic product manager. “Trenching of
underground guidance wire is not required, saving time and expense during installation and service.”

“It also improves a corner system's adaptability by allowing for changes to a field's boundaries without
retrenching. When a grower enters the new field coordinates, Lindsay's SmartDesign mapping tool easily
creates a new, highly precise path,” he says.

The MAXfield Corner control panel provides real-time information and diagnostics for easy in-field
adjustments. In addition Lindsay's patent pending GPS Guidance Safety Control board provides an extra
level of support to ensure the corner operates correctly at all times.

GPS Guidance is available with new MAXfield Corner and MAXfield 4x4 machines, or as a retrofit
option for growers with existing MAXfield corner systems, according to Hoffman.
