What happens here
Using a post driver, drive the 2-inch diameter galvanized steel post into the ground at the desired location near the pond. The creator performs this from the back rack of a quad bike, using the post driver to repeatedly strike the top of the post until it is firmly embedded. After initial driving, he checks the post's level using a level tool and makes adjustments by applying force to the post. If the post hits a rock, it may need to be pulled out and reset in a slightly different location.
Goal: Securely install the galvanized steel post for the solar panel.
