I bought an older Case tractor at an estate sale a year or so ago, not knowing what the fellow had died from. When I went back to pick it up, got to talking with another guy there and the owner had a habit of starting the tractors from the ground. He was always careful to leave the tractors out of gear when he got off of one - he was in his 80's - but didn't realize one of the neighbors had borrowed one and left it in gear. When he tried to start it - it ran over him. He managed to crawl to the house and get help and lived for several weeks after that, but didn't make it... Also, when I was a kid - I got squished between a rear tire and a three point mount implement. Not enough to hurt me, but plenty enough to leave an impression! My main point is - there are a lot of ways to get hurt around a tractor! HH
