What are the responsibilities and job description for the Electrical Technician position at Jones Manufacturing Co.?
About Jones Manufacturing
Jones Manufacturing Company has produced the most durable, high-capacity, operator-oriented hay grinder and mulch grinder in the world — the Mighty Giant tub grinder. The quality and durability of this equipment stem from more than 50 years of hands-on, in-the-field experience with every Mighty Giant we build.
Innovation begins at Jones Manufacturing. We were the first with a hydraulic opening tub (building our first unit in 1960), the first with an electronic governor, and the first with a hydrafork. From the single-discharge auger to the rubber-lagged top-drive elevator, no other grinder offers the features, capacity, and durability of a Mighty Giant.
New products and new features can sometimes lead to new problems. At Jones Manufacturing, our team maintains relationships with our customers to ensure that all features and designs are field-tested in the same environment as our customers face. This same relationship gives us the feedback we need so that new designs and innovations are the result of experience, not marketing hype.
