Wrong tractor! TYM Backhoe issue or ??

What happens here

After moving the bulk of the dirt, the focus shifts to drainage. The operator is shown using a shovel to clear and refine a trench dug along the side of the building. He then lays black, 6-inch corrugated, single-wall drainage pipe into the prepared trench. He connects one end of the pipe directly into the building's downspout. He uses a cordless drill with a screwdriver bit to screw the pipe into the downspout to secure it and prevent animals from entering. This setup is designed to manage rainwater runoff from the building, directing it away from the foundation and eventually towards a planned pond.

Goal: Install drainage to manage rainwater runoff from the building
