Clearly not a PRO! What I've Learned using the Rental Forestry Mulcher!
What happens here
The day after extensive mulching, the presenter reviews the cleared area, showcasing the transformation from dense brush to a clear, mulched landscape. He then addresses essential daily maintenance for the diesel-powered mulcher, specifically adding Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) to the machine's reservoir. He pours a 2.5-gallon jug of Super Tech DEF, highlighting the cost and environmental regulations associated with its use, and jokes about it being a 'government waste of time fluid.' The presenter then provides a final overview of the entire cleared section, which spans roughly 3 to 3.5 acres, emphasizing its readiness for new pastures and a planned mile-long fence line. He highlights the completed fence line clearing as well as the newly opened bottomland for pasture.
Goal: Perform necessary machine maintenance and assess the overall project progress.
