Overview

Focused entirely on one practical task: diagnosing and correcting improper tail-wheel height on a rotary cutter so it stops double-cutting and overworking the tractor. Mike explains the front-low, back-high pitch principle, cites the owner's manual as the reference, and walks through a clever lumber-block method (2x4s and 2x6s as height guides) to set the rake accurately. Best for owners troubleshooting a sluggish brush-hog setup.

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.
