The video covers top-link adjustment, adding body weight for extra penetration, wet vs. dry ground behavior, and rock redistribution technique, all through casual on-the-job conversation. Best for anyone weighing a basic land plane against a scarifier-equipped model or a blade.
Tractor Time with Tim is a family-run hobby-farm channel focused on compact tractors, with an enthusiast rather than expert perspective and no apparent dealer affiliation.
At first it looked like it wasn't going to dig deep enough, but extra trips over it dug a little more each time and it worked.
Standing on the land plane made the tractor pull a lot harder, suggesting a weight bracket holding extra weights might help it dig deeper.
It likes drier ground better. In muddy areas it dug a bit easier but didn't flow over the cutters well, leaving clumps and a worse finish.
Both Tom and Randall said the land plane was easier and better than using the backhoe bucket, and you don't have to deal with the noise.
