What happens here
The custom mower's fundamental design is highlighted as a self-contained unit that functions as an independent trailer. It is intended to be securely hooked up to the rear or side of a primary towing vehicle, such as another riding mower or a tractor, via a hitch or tow bar. This trailing setup allows the custom mower to operate alongside the main vehicle, enabling it to reach and cut vegetation on steep inclines or ditch banks while the towing vehicle can maintain position on more stable or level ground.
Goal: Understand how the mower attaches to a tow vehicle and its operational positioning for cutting on slopes.
