Test 3: Hydro-Rake Grading (Compact Tractor)

What happens here

Derrick operates a John Deere compact tractor, utilizing its front loader to initially move and distribute the bulk of the mixed soil and vegetation. Following this, he engages the 3-point hydro-rake attached to the rear of the tractor. The hydro-rake is specifically designed to break up clods, smooth the surface, and prepare an optimal seedbed. The operator demonstrates controlling the rake's depth using the tractor's slotted top link, allowing the attachment to float and adapt to the terrain for a consistent finish.

Goal: Prepare a seedbed using a compact tractor with a loader and a 3-point hydro-rake.
