It briefly covers the third-function extension kit, a 6-ft Braber rotary cutter, and a 9-inch bit, but stops short of any operational demo or specs. Best for shoppers curious about the hydraulic auger setup on this specific model.
Posted by the TRACTORCITY channel, which appears to be a dealership or equipment retailer showcasing their own purchased machine, so expect a sales-leaning perspective.
Because they were digging about 50 holes for a fence and wanted to be efficient and fast, the hydraulic digger plugged into the tractor's third function worked better.
The tractor already had third function fittings since it is the premium MT242H model, and they added an extension kit to set up the hydraulic post hole digger.
A 9 inch bit is currently mounted on the hydraulic post hole digger.
