Farmer Mows his MANURE? I wish I'd learned this YEARS AGO!
What happens here
Start the tractor and attach the Woods Batwing BW15.50 rotary cutter. The farmer emphasizes the reliability of Woods equipment. Critically, adjust the mowing height using metal spacers placed on the hydraulic cylinder that controls the mower's deck. For this project, the ideal height is set to 8 inches by placing the appropriate number of spacers. He also highlights the importance of the PTO shear bolt (clutch) as a safety mechanism for the mower.
Goal: Prepare the tractor and set the mower to the optimal cutting height.
