Normal Day of Farm Chores turns into GOVERNMENT PHOTOGRAPHY OVER THE FARM!
What happens here
Upon opening the water tank, the farmer identifies that the internal valve's float is hitting the side of the tank, preventing it from fully closing. He uses pliers to gently bend the metal rod of the float valve, allowing the float to move freely and the valve to properly shut off the water flow. He then briefly drains the water from the tank to remove any debris and check the proper functioning of the valve. He secures the top access panel back in place using the Milwaukee M12 FUEL right angle ratchet.
Goal: Stop the water tank from continuously leaking.
