Get Started On A Mini-Excavator Kubota KX033.
What happens here
Use the excavator's bucket to precisely scrape away the top layer of dirt in a straight line along the foundation of a house. This creates a neat, shallow trench suitable for planting shrubs and bushes. Carefully use the bucket to remove any excess soil or debris to create an even planting bed. After the bed is prepared by the excavator, manually dig individual holes for each plant and then plant the trees, bushes, and smaller plants in their designated spots, ensuring proper spacing. Once planted, backfill the holes with soil and apply red mulch to finish the landscaping bed.
Goal: Prepare a landscaping bed using the excavator and plant new vegetation.
