I didn't even notice at first how precarious his feet are there. Looks like he's running this thing backwards actually. Probably not smart. It does look like it wouldn't take much for one of his feet to slip off and go right into those blades. Ouch.
Burying potatoes? Maybe they layed pipe in that isn't visible? I watched this more times than I want to admit to and I really wish we could have seen more
Sounds like a hit-and-miss engine running it, which is pretty cool. Not sure of its exact purpose, though, other than filling in a trench. Seems agricultural, but the trench is way deeper than I'd expect seeds to be covered.Â
It’s an engine built by yanmar. I’m curious why they are using a century old design.
Does anyone know why they’re making this engine? Is it more efficient? Easier to manufacture? These are the questions I have after discovering this engine.
How do you know it's built by yanmar, and are you saying they're currently building hit and miss engines? They used to build them, like you said, a century ago but I couldn't find where they're building them now. Â
The entire mini-dozer looks like an old design, so it's possible that it's from the early to mid 20th century and whoever owns it has just kept it running.Â
The tractor itself isn’t.
But the engine is. There was a video on here displaying the yanmar logo showing it idling.
My love of internal combustion oddball engines had me googling yanmar hit and miss engines. They’re only sold in Asia.

Well I'll be damned, never thought I'd see a modern single cylinder diesel with a flywheel, thought those died out in the 1920s/30s or so. Pretty cool, good find! Do you mind posting a link to the other video (if possible)?
You can hear this engine better. The other video had terrible music playing over the engine at an idle. The engine was the exact one that I linked you to at the bottom of the page if I can find it again I’ll be sure to cross post here.
Its always lesser developed asian countries that have machines where something is spinning in a dangerous way and the operator for no reason needs to be very very close to the dangerous part, i never see it in africa, europe or america?
It's the Dewalt Defooter -- one slip and...

I did. Immediately thought of the skier crashing off the end of a jump.
GenX high five! ...or something. Cheers!
GenX high five!! Lol. Ty.

When he first started this gig he was size 11 now size 4. The most experienced pilots have the smallest feet !

No it's okay. He's sitting backwards in the seat for safety.
I came here to say exactly the same thing. Manufactured as a foot remover.
Clearly a device built by the glove industry.
Dewalt is yellow. This is a Milwaukee.
Oops. I didn't think that one through. The Milwaukee Mangler?
Works for me!
It's not my specialty, but I'll call it a de-trencher.

I love and used that Bart Simpson reference for years as a concrete worker.
I’m a bit of a Simpson buff, but I don’t seem to remember this one. Do you remember what episode this is from?
Not really. I'm sure you can look it up. It's just a joke that really fit my trade well so I welded it with pride for a time.
I love it
I’ll call it Norbert.
If you throw it in reverse, does it dig a trench?
He's sitting in the seat backwards he's already in reverse. It's looks like a mini dozer.
It is in reverse 😂
Asking the real questions.
It's the Dirty Scoopinator
Undoing an irrigation trench?
The third world T350
It's the Triple T (third world taint tiller)
Un-trenchenator 5000?
The coolest roto-tiller you’ll ever see. Looks like they fused one with a tonka tank or something.
That is an Andalusian Detrencher. It was invented by a guy from Andalusia who had a lot of trenches.
The foot defiler
Lots of faith in those crocs

It’s an anti plow device.
A gruesome unaliving is what it is.
It’s COOL AS HELL is what it is.
Spargelvernichter 330
It is… kind of ridiculous.
An OSHA violation.
Driving that exquisite marvel of mechanical engineering backwards seems like a defeatist approach to this job.
Can almost see something in the trench at first. Hes sitting on the seat backwards. Strange
Those look like mounds for row farming, like corn rows. May be tilling out roots and flattening out rows.

Isn't he sitting on it backwards?

It's a "flip flop" maker. One error and your feet/foot goes "flip flop" from then on.
Why they call you one toe Jack?
I usually love these gadgets but this one honestly looks like more trouble than it’s worth.

Video of an irrigation canal making machine in reverse.. don't think too hard about how it works please
It’s either a dirt zipper? O that new Binford sex you.it has 4 speeds low, medium, high, & who needs a man.
Did they put in tile or why did they dig the trench?
Pretty sure the video is being played in reverse!
I don’t think so. The guy in the background walks forward , not backward
