Lets Pick up the new Tracked Skid steer!

What happens here

The presenter enters the cab of the Kubota SVL 65-2. Corey, the rental manager, walks him through the basic operational controls, which serve as essential pre-operation checks. He explains how to turn the key to the accessory position, allows the glow plug to warm up, and then instructs to hit the green button on the side panel to engage the machine for operation. The presenter notes the quietness of the cab once the overhead door is closed, highlighting its safety feature that prevents operators from being trapped inside, a practical consideration often found in operator's manuals.
