As long as the child understands the controls and safety issues I feel it is perfectly safe to let them run the equipment in an open area until they get used to it. I was running tractors around 9 or 10 years, and by 12 I was backing them up to implements while my Dad put the pin in.

As a side note, I lost my right foot when I was 10 years old in a grain auger. Kicked the tailgate shut and my foot slipped off the back of the truck. PTO drive auger with 50 hp tractor on it. DO NOT REMOVE SAFETY GUARDS FOR ANY REASON other than repair and then replace them immediately. TALK TO YOUR CHILDREN ABOUT SAFETY!
