I had an AC WD45 I had just finished restoring 2 months earlier to this. I was getting ready to unload it for a plow day the next day and was talking to a buddy and standing next to the tractor I started it without checking to see if it was in gear. It was in 1st. I tried to turn the key off quick, but jumped off the trailer to avoid injury. The tractor hit the headache bar with enough force to pop the front tires over it, but because I didn't have all the bugs worked out in the carb settings there was enough resistance it killed the tractor. So here we sit with a tractor half way over the front of the trailer. It put a small dent in the truck bumper and took out the trailer jack. We ended up unhooking the trailer from the truck and my trailer ramps fit just in between the front tires and the headache bar and I backed the tractor back onto the trailer. I took the tractor home that night to inspect it. The front toe on the wide front was way out of whack and it was easily fixed, but that was the only damage to the tractor. No scratches what so ever to the under carriage. I have never not been in the seat of a tractor on a trailer and started one since then!
