Your sure right about that Jim, as I was doing the same thing this last Saturday, pulling logs out of the woods, (( ON a HILL )) have to be very very careful, and I am also a Licensed Power Plant Engineer, but retired, I'v had a few close calls, but was able to stop the tractor with the front end loader, some times the chain will break on me and have to (BE READY) and take action when that happens, it just takes a few seconds. You can NEVER be too careful Jim, I cut and burn about 12 cords of wood each year, and do it myself with no help, but it's good exercise for my age. Just this summmer, one of our neighbors was doing the same thing, and the brakes failed on his tractor and it killed him, so it happens all the time in all ages, Just be careful and pray as you go. cause you NEVER KNOW...
