It's a casual, narrated work session that explains the two-stage ripping-then-finishing technique. Best for LX3310 owners curious how the tractor handles a larger land plane under real load.
An owner-operator sharing hands-on impressions from their own family property, with no apparent commercial affiliation.
Lower the rippers three to four inches deep and make several passes over the pothole to rip out and break up the edges, rather than just filling it with stone, then raise the rippers and finish grading with the blades.
