The video walks through the implement's shank and sweep configurations, top-link pitch adjustment, and traction limitations of each vehicle. Casual and comedic in tone, it offers genuine observations but little hard data, best for anyone curious whether a small ATV-rated chisel plow can work behind a sub-compact tractor.

Yes, it works fine, though the electric actuator lift is a bit slow compared to tractor hydraulics, and only three of five shanks were used during the test.
Yes, the hosts concluded the Gator pulled it easier, though the 1025R still handled it without major issues once set up correctly.
It adjusts the tilt and pitch of the frame to match different drawbar heights, and once set correctly it should not need frequent readjustment.
In the test, switching the truck into four-wheel drive eliminated traction problems, and the hosts observed it pulled the plow with no issues, though opinions differed on which was easiest overall.
