Brush Hogging STEEP HILLS

This is a safety-and-technique talk on brush hogging steep slopes with an LS XR4040, not a product review. The owner explains quick-hitch use to avoid bent top links, keeping the loader bucket low for stability, using independent brakes to turn quickly on hills, ROPS/seatbelt use, engaging 4WD, and why you mow hills backwards going up. Useful for owners tackling hilly terrain, not for spec or buying research.
