One of the most important things to remember in handling a tractor and really any piece of equipment, is do not get in a hurry. The vast majority of "horror stories" I"ve seen where someone got hurt or killed, they got in a hurry and tried to finish something when they really didn"t have the time to do it in a safe manner. We have 3 John Deere B"s, 3 A"s and a 70 Diesel. I generally operate in 2 or 3rd, only rarely in 4th and I"ve ever driven any of our tractors in 5th or 6th. To me, its a good way to die. I love the farm, I love working on it and I love working with the tractors, so I"ll keep doing it as long as I"m able. Life is a fragile thing and death could be just one breath away, but death holds no fear for me. Just be mindful of what you"re doing, respect your equipment and enjoy what you"re doing. God Bless.
