Overview
Two compact tractors, a 1025R and a 2032R, tackle a standing-water problem in a horse pasture by cutting a surface swale with box blades and a tiller. The video is distinctly a collaborative, real-project session showing two operators comparing techniques, debating efficiency, and using a laser level to set slope. It runs deep enough to cover grade-setting math, tire performance notes, and a loader hydraulic leak discovered mid-job. Best for owners curious about practical box-blade grading on uneven ground.
Tractor Time with Tim is an owner-operator lifestyle channel focused on compact tractor projects, presenting work from a hobbyist rather than a professional or dealership perspective.
