What a mess! Let's get out the BIG TRACTOR!

What happens here

The primary tool for compost application is the Wingfield American Harrow Batwing Drag Harrow. This drag harrow is designed to cover a wide area, approximately 18 feet, and can be hydraulically folded and unfolded for transport and operation. It features a robust metal chain and tine mesh that effectively breaks down and spreads solid manure pats. Before connecting to the tractor, the operator removes the three main hitch pins from the drag harrow's attachment points, preparing it for the tractor's 3-point hitch system.

Goal: Learn about the Batwing Drag Harrow and prepare it for attachment by removing hitch pins.
