Anybody that has run tractors nearly their whole life has no doubt had a close call or two. I remember one time I roll started an H farmall with 12 V battery and no battery box. Battery slid a little. Smoke came up from under gas tank. Got off to look. Positive post of battery was in contact with gas line. Gas line was glowing red hot. Not thinking, I pulled battery away. Luckly, it did not melt a hole in gas line. Could of been really bad with me standing right there if it melted through. Another time I was driving a low profile tractor that was hot wired (key switch by-passed). Hit a high cut tree stump in tall grass right on the clutch pedal. Couldn't clutch out of gear or shut tractor off. Using my head, I just idled down to idle and pulled the choke to kill the engine. Anyways, if you have a close call story to share please do and be careful this farming season. I seen a spray rig after it got hit by a train the other day. I think the guy was luckly just injured. Don't need to see any more postings on here about fatality accidents.
