Don't make this Stupid Mistake! That Cost the Farm!

What happens here

After retrieving the TYM tractor from the woods, he brings it to a concrete pad next to the barn. He explains that he prefers to keep this tractor indoors to prevent the front-end loader's bucket from collecting water and rusting. He then discusses switching to his Solectrac electric tractor for the hay-moving task. He wipes down the wet seat of the Solectrac with a rag and attaches a yellow plastic bucket, secured by a bungee cord, to the rear of the brush hog, using it as a temporary trash receptacle for hay strings.

Goal: Get the electric tractor ready for the task
