Respect for your equipment and safety first but what is under the snow can not be seen. I was doing a charitable act on Monday, was on my second farm yard clean for single woman when I thought I would make one more pass down the driveway to make it just a little wider. I run a NH665 with cab/heater and an 8 ft. articulating blade. Well, I slipped off of that driveway and dropped down a good 5 ft. up against a cattle panel fence with the post stuck between the two right wheels. Nice, can't move, horses on the other side of the fence, can't take the staples off of the panel and skid around, nobody here to watch the horses. Hey, the neighbor has a JD 2955 with front wheel assist. I was back moving snow in less that thirty minutes. If that gentleman was killed running a skid steer without a cage, somebody should have given him a good kick and he would still be with us. At the present time, if you trade a skid steer off without a cage, the dealer who traded you needs to install a cage before he can sell that skid steer, its the law. So, the dealers won't give you anything for those old skid steer, you can purchase them cheaply, privately. How cheap do you want to be to save your life?
