BE CAREFUL WORKING ON THE TRACTORS

Posted by Thomas Windsor on April 13, 2006 at 15:17:49 from (64.12.116.65):

Well, I am broken hearted today. My 70 year old friend, I am 65, was killed today doing what he and I like to do...to work on and restore these old tractors.

This is what he did...

He has an Ford 8N with a bush hog on it. For some reason he backed the tractor into the shop, raised the bush hog and put blocks under it and then turned the tractor off. He stuck his upper body up under the bush hog--he had a pipe wrench up under there..I am thinking that he was going to tighten something up. The blocks kicked out from under the bush hog and it settled across his throat and neck...he was found still warm but gone...he had his cell phone in his hand trying to call for help....Guys...be careful.
