Accessibility Minute - Assistive Technology Tips and Tricks for Everyone


Jun 24, 2022

Hey there! Welcome to Accessibility Minute, your weekly look at Assistive Technology, those clever tools, and devices designed to help people who have difficulties with vision, mobility, hearing, or other special needs!

A couple of weeks ago, I mentioned the AgrAbility project, which helps agricultural workers with disabilities.  Another available product from their AT Toolbox Database is the Troy-Bilt JumpStart Engine Starter.

The Troy-Bilt JumpStart Engine Starter eliminates the need to pull-start most of the newer Troy-Bilt gas-powered lawn tools including their trimmer, edger, blower, and more.  The Engine Starter is especially useful if the tool has not been started for a while or its engine is cold.

To use the device, simply plug it into a regular household outlet and connect it to the JumpStart port on your equipment and easily start your Troy-Bilt handheld equipment with the push of a button!

I’d like to take a moment to thank InTRAC, the Indiana Telephone Relay Access Corporation for sponsoring our transcript today.  You can find out more about InTRAC at relayindiana.com.

That was your Accessibility Minute for this week! I’m Laura Medcalf with the INDATA Project at Easterseals Crossroads, in Indiana.
