Overview
Distinct for being filmed mid-purchase: Mike is actually evaluating a specific used Hesston 3500 rotary cutter he found on Craigslist, not just describing the process abstractly. He crawls underneath to check blade spindle play, inspects and interprets gearbox oil condition, wiggles the tail wheel bearing, checks U-joints and the slip clutch, and scans the deck for welds as a negotiating point. Practical, brand-agnostic advice for anyone about to buy a used brush hog.
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.
