my old grandpap taught me when you hand crank a tractor , stand directly in front of the tractor faceing it, AFTER you check to see that it is indeed out of gear, grasp the crank handle and turn it untill you feel compression then pull the handle UP thru the compression stroke, that way if it does kick back, the handle will be pulled down and out of your hands and if your in front of the tractor faceing it, it wont hit you if it comes all the way back around [ if your quick] was he right? and i also have to admit its been 30 + years since ive had the oportunity to hand crank a tractor too, all mine have electric starters
