In hindsight we had a VERY scary moment when I was about 8 years old. Had just traded our old Minneapolis U for a 4020. My grandfather was on the tractor and hired man and myself were on either side of a pull type plow. As he went to raise the plow we heard a loud POP and the plow dropped. We couldn't figure out what happened till we looked at the hydraulic cylinder rod and it was GONE. It has blown apart so fast we never even saw it-found it buried in the dirt about 30feet behind the tractor. I am sure it scared my grandfather, and to this day I hate to think what would have happened if either of us had been standing beind the plow instead of in front of it.
