Prepare Tractor and Mower for Work

head okay it's mrs stoney ridge's maiden voyage crazy chicken lady time get ready dry her it's very comfortable it's a bit bouncy because it makes for a good ride so what we're going to do mr stoney ridge is going to sit in the buddy seat right here the training seat there you go it just flips up right there and we're gonna go for a little cruise up here to the top of the field and we just have an area it's probably 15 feet wide that we've got to mow prior to springtime now there's a bunch of rocks in here and i'm a little bit worried about those hammers mashing and whacking into those rocks but we'll see we'll see how it goes you ready let's do it maiden voyage there's your buddy see come on girl let's do it are you tickled yeah let's do it i'm excited to finally have a buddy seat she's tickled what we got to do here for transport i'm going to raise this guy up and this has the bosch control system here in it so we'll turn it raise it all the way up and we're going to lay down the mower hopefully i got the right handle there we go so we're going to lay it down that's how we'll be mowing but for transport you want to be as narrow as possible so we can get through the gates so we're bringing it back over into position it's like so i probably got about three hours on this machine here on the farm just moving logs and stuff like that here's the throttle now it's a shuttle shift so all we have to do is flick the shuttle and it goes back forward it's nice i like the cab jacker get used to this i might have to kick you out on the small one guys cows are a little bit rough on this section of the pasture what we didn't have is our water system set up all the way so you'll see some ruts out here where the cows kind of put some puck marks but a lot of manure a lot of grass seeds mixed into those pug marks so it's going to make for awesome pasture later on in the year
