Fuel cans and fuel mixes may seem straight forward but, like most things in prescribed fire, there is a technique to it. Pheasants Forever prescribed burn trailers include drip torches and drip torch fuel mix cans to help Minnesota private landowners conduct burns on their lands. 00:00 Fuel cans on the trailer 00:27 Drip torch fuel mixes 01:44 Filling a fuel can from a pump 02:32 Filling a drip torch with a fuel can 04:08 Fuel can storage 04:23 Do not fill fuels inside the trailer Drip torch fuel mix chart: https://www.minnesotapf.net/uploads/f...
