Extreme Tractor Mulcher - Steep Hills - Lessons Learned

Operation45–55 hpTYM T474

Overview

Tony runs a mulcher on the TYM T474 down a steep, heavily wooded hillside and narrates safety lessons in real time, watching for dead overhead limbs, managing downhill momentum, handling a near-tip when a stump caught his grapple, and diagnosing a bent brake rod caused by a dragging limb. It's a candid working session, light on specs but useful for anyone considering mulching on serious slopes.

An owner-operator channel where Tony documents hands-on homestead work, sharing mistakes and fixes from his own property with no apparent commercial affiliation.
