What happens here

The operator enters the cab of the ASV RT-135. He starts the machine and briefly explains the control layout. The left joystick is typically for boom and tilt functions, while the right joystick is for driving the machine. He engages the parking brake, activates the high-flow hydraulics to power the mulching head, and throttles up the engine. A dial on the front of the mulcher indicates its operating speed. He waits for the mulching head to reach its optimal operating speed before engaging it with any material.

Goal: Prepare the skid loader and mulcher for operation
