What happens here
Retrieve the geared reel loaded with polybraid from Farm Fence Solutions. The farmer demonstrates how the reel's locking mechanism works to either hold the tension or allow the wire to unreel. He then hooks the polybraid from the reel to the first gate using a 'cold connection' clip, which is an insulated handle that can be hooked onto an energized wire (though this wire won't be energized). He then walks across the road, unrolling the polybraid and guiding it through the pre-placed step-in posts until he reaches the second gate, where he secures the end of the polybraid.
Goal: Run and secure the polybraid wire between the gates.
