Overview

A concise operator-guidance video covering exactly when to engage and disengage 4WD, mud, snow, loader work, ground-engaging implements, and when to leave it off, such as on pavement or during tight turns. Mike also explains why front tires spin slightly faster than rears in 4WD mode, touches on differential lock, and flags the tire-size-swap trap. Best for new tractor owners confused by conflicting advice.

Tractor Mike is a longtime tractor-industry insider with decades of hands-on experience in the equipment business. He built his channel to help first-time and rural buyers make confident decisions, and his guidance comes from that deep, long-term background rather than a sales pitch.
