Ditch Bank Mower: Tractor Weight & Safety Tips!
Overview
This short video focuses on one specific safety concept: how a ditch bank flail mower's weight becomes magnified when extended laterally off the tractor's three-point hitch, and why that may require counterweighting even if the mower nominally matches your tractor's rated capacity. It's a narrow, conceptual discussion with no specs, no real-world demonstration, and no particular tractor shown, best for someone new to ditch bank mowers who hasn't considered the offset-weight problem.
A homesteading channel run by people who recently transitioned from city life to a hay farm in East Texas, so expect a learner's perspective rather than seasoned expertise.
