Overview
This episode is entirely about prep work, not the land plane in action, the actual grading job at a local restaurant parking lot is saved for a follow-up video. What you do get is a candid, real-time look at how long mobilizing a 1025R actually takes: removing cab doors, configuring the 260B backhoe power-beyond hoses, swapping attachments, fueling up, and loading the trailer over three-plus hours. Most useful for owners curious about realistic setup time or the 260B backhoe quirks.
Tractor Time with Tim is an owner-operator channel focused on compact tractor projects and everyday property work, presented in a casual, family-friendly style rather than from a dealership or professional services perspective.
