never had that ever happen but then i dont use chopper wagons just a dump wagon. ive had that come unhooked on its own in the field a couple times but never on a hill. although ive had the mixer wagon come unhooked more than a few times on the hill going up the barn. lucky it was in the driveway at the bottom 2 times so if had broke free on the hill it would have rolled all the way down accross the road and theres a 5 ft drop off going into the feild accross the road so it would destroyed it. its happened on the ford 6610 everytime the hitch broke right where it bends up 2 times. tand 1 other when i was just leaving the bunk with a small load the pin came out for the draw bar in the middle of the road. lucky the it had a smallish load but the skid steer could just barely move it and got it out of the way just in time before a car came flying over the hill. my son also pushed the little ford 4610 down the hill trying to jump start it. got real lucky on that one. it had the rake on it too and it wasnt on a slope enough to jusmp it so he took it out of gear took the brake off and started pushing it started rolling and he couldnt catch back up to it and it was a long a$$ steep hill too. i was in the dump truck waiting for the worker to dump the load in the truck but i saw it and took off right before the load dumped and chased it down the hill where it leveled out a little so it slowed but then there was another steep hill so it kept going again hit wood chuck holes everything in the tool boxed fell out it could have easily went striaght and in the ditch and smashed the whole thing but luckly it turned a little bit and steered toward the woods and it stopped like 3 ft before smashing into a huge rock pile.
