Testing Mustang's Newest skid steer

What happens here

After resolving the key issue, the operator enters the Mustang 1650RT skid steer, performs initial checks, and notes the low engine hours (3 hours, indicating a new machine). He then exits the skid steer to refuel it. A portable fuel transfer tank, equipped with a pump and filter, is used from the back of the Ford truck to fill the skid steer's diesel tank. The operator emphasizes not overfilling the tank to prevent spills during maneuvers like 'wheelies'.

Goal: The operator performs pre-operation checks on the Mustang skid steer, including verifying engine hours, then proceeds to refuel the machine using a portable transfer tank from the truck.
