1.  Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

The   accompanying   unaudited  interim  condensed   consolidated
financial  statements  have  been  prepared  in  accordance  with
generally  accepted accounting principles for  interim  financial
information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10
of  Regulations S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information   and   footnotes  required  by  generally   accepted
accounting principles for complete financial statements.  In  the
opinion  of  management, all adjustments  (consisting  of  normal
recurring  accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation
have  been included.  Operating results for the periods presented
are  not  necessarily  indicative of  the  results  that  may  be
expected  for  the  year  ended  December,  1996.   For   further
information,  refer to the consolidated financial statements  and
footnotes   thereto  included  in  the  Registrant  Company   and
Subsidiaries'  annual  report on Form 10-K  for  the  year  ended
December 30, 1995.

its  subsidiaries  ("Dakebausen");  December  6,  1995,  Herschel

On  May  24, 1995, the Company invested $1,980,000 to purchase  a
49.5% equity interest in Certified Power Inc. ("CPI"), in a highly
leveraged  transaction,  accounted for  under  equity  accounting

3.  Accounts Receivable

of  $1,521,000 and $1,357,000 at June 29, 1996 and  December  30,
1995, respectively.

4.  Inventories

Inventories valued at LIFO cost represented 83% and 67% of  total
inventory  for the periods ended June 29, 1996 and  December  30,
1995, respectively.  The excess of current costs over LIFO valued
inventories  was  $2,538,000 at June 29, 1996 and  $2,618,000  at
December   30,   1995.   Inventory  obsolescence  reserves   were
$4,742,000 at June 29, 1996 and $4,157,000 at December 30,  1995.
Net inventories consist of the following (in thousands):

                             June 29,  December
                                         30,

    An actual valuation of inventory under the LIFO method can be
  made only at the end of each year based on the inventory levels
          and costs at that time.  Accordingly, interim LIFO must
 necessarily be based on management's estimates of expected year-
    end inventory levels and costs.  Because these are subject to
     many forces beyond management's control, interim results are
          subject to the final year-end LIFO inventory valuation.

                                           6.  Contingent Matters
                                                                 
 The Company is subject to various unresolved legal actions which
arise in the normal course of its business, the most prevalent of
  which relate to product liability.  Although it is not possible
  to predict with certainty the outcome of these unresolved legal
actions or the range of possible loss, the Company believes these
  unresolved legal actions will not have a material affect on its

Results of Operations

Second  Quarter  Ended June 29, 1996 Compared to  Second  Quarter
Ended July 1, 1995

Net  sales  increased  $5,424,000,  up  12%  over  1995's  second
quarter.  This increase is a result of acquisitions (see notes to
financial   statements)  in  1995  and  European   sales   volume
increases,  partially  offset by decreases  in  sales  volume  in
American  operations,  particularly in agricultural  markets  and
replacement parts.  The acquisitions primarily affected  American
agricultural  sales.   The  sales volume  decreases  in  American
operations  were  due  primarily  to  harsh  weather  conditions.
Increases  in  the  amounts  of  costs  and  expenses  are  also,
generally, related to the acquisitions.

Gross  margin,  up  from  27.5%  to  28.5  %,  increased  due  to
production  efficiency  programs  and  price  increase   effects.
Partially  offsetting  these positive  effects  were  the  margin
effects  of  sales volume reductions, particularly in replacement
parts, and lower than expected performance from recently acquired
companies.   The  26%  increase  in  average  common  shares  and
equivalents  related to the 2,000,000 share June 29,  1995  stock
offering.

Six  Months Ended June 29, 1996 Compared to Six Months Ended July
1, 1995

Net  sales increased $16,022,000, up 20%.  Acquisitions  in  1995
were  the  primary  factor  in  increases  in  sales  and  costs.
European operations also contributed to sales growth.  Six  month
results,  like  the  second quarter, were  impacted  by  negative
impacts  of  harsh  weather  on  sales  volume,  particularly  in
agricultural markets and replacement parts.  Overall, margins and
cost  ratios were little changed with second quarter improvements
generally having offset modest first quarter declines.  The first
quarter  results reflected a 1.7% benefit to the income tax  rate
related to the calculation of state income taxes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash  provided  by operations was $1,5556,000 for  the  six-month
period  ended June 29, 1996, with the net income cash  flows  for
the  period  substantially  offset by net  increases  in  working
capital accounts related primarily to seasonal effect.

As of June 29, 1996, $34,104,000 was utilized under the Company's
$40,000,000 Amended and Restated Revolving Credit and  Term  Loan
Agreement  (the "Facility") of which $1,504,000 was  for  standby
letters  of  credit  and  $32,600,000  was  borrowed   under  the
revolving credit line.  The Company's borrowings are seasonal  in
nature  with  the greatest utilization of the Facility  generally
occurring in the spring.

The  Facility  and  the Company's ability to internally  generate
funds  from operations should be sufficient to meet the Company's
cash requirements in the near future.

                   PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.Legal Proceedings

       The   Company  is  subject  to  various  unresolved  legal
       actions  which  arise  in  the  ordinary  course  of   its
       business.   The most prevalent of such actions  relate  to
       product   liability.   While  amounts   claimed   may   be
       substantial  and  the ultimate liability with  respect  to
       such  litigation cannot be determined at  this  time,  the
       Company  believes  that  the  ultimate  outcome  of  these
       matters  will  not have a material adverse effect  on  the
       Company's consolidated financial position.

Item 4.Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

       The  Company's Annual Meeting of Stockholders was held  on
       April  30,  1996, with the following results of  elections
