What happens here

The rock picker is a large, heavy-duty black attachment with an open-bottom basket featuring sturdy metal tines. The presenter points out the hydraulic lines that connect to the skid steer's quick attach system, powering a hydraulic motor connected to a gearbox. This gearbox drives the rotating tines at the bottom of the basket, which are designed to kick rocks into the basket while allowing smaller debris and dirt to fall through. He identifies two lubrication points on the rock picker and proceeds to apply grease to them using a grease gun.

Goal: The presenter inspects the rock picker attachment, identifies the hydraulic lines, gearbox, and rotating tines, and then locates and lubricates the two visible grease points on the attachment.
