The video covers the full hay process, setup, mowing, and baling logistics, plus a notably detailed, candid sequence of hooking up the heavy drum mower (including a fumbled 31-minute hitch). Best for first-time small-acreage hay growers curious about what the process actually involves day-to-day.
Posted by the BrianPhillipsRC channel; the conversational tone and references to learning hay-making from scratch suggest an owner-operator documenting their own small farm, though no formal credentials are stated.
It is a 60 horsepower turbocharged three-cylinder diesel, described by the owner as hydrostatic with a cab.
It was difficult and took about 31 minutes in this video, involving adjusting lift arms, telescoping link arms, and pinning everything into place carefully.
The owner states it is about 700 pounds, noting it is heavy enough that lifting it is not just a matter of personal strength.
The owner estimates about 2,800 pounds of lifting capacity, and notes the mower is heavy, especially without a ballast box attached.
