I lost my Dad in a tractor roll over 20 years ago. He was spraying fence rows in a pasture with a hand gun and had a three point hitch sprayer on a narrow front tractor. The owner of the farm had wanted some firewood and had cut a dead tree down leaving a six or so inch stump. Dad was looking at the fence row and never seen it and with a half full tank of water the slosh rolled it very quickly.Dad always sprayed with the loader tractor that was a narrow front as he said it was already beat and scratched up.He always kept the loader low.
