For a tractor hooked to a stump, the contact point of the rear tires becomes the center of rotation (sometimes referred to as the "instant center") and if the axial component of the towing force is great enough it can cause the flipover of the tractor. Another dangerous situation is if the tractor is parked in wet ground that freezes the tires to the ground overnight. Putting the tractor in a forward gear under these conditions can also cause a flip over.

So if you're going to pull big stumps, get a big CAT!
