How many hours do I get on a metered machine?

If the equipment you are renting has an hour meter, you are authorized to use 8 hours of run time for each rental day. Each additional hour over the 8 hours will be an additional cost. 

Weekend rentals are allowed 10 hours of run time. 

NOTE: We have only had machines go over hours less than handful of times. It is not as easy as you think. You generally do not need to worry about the hour meter.
