A contributing factor is too small a tractor for too large a load. On down hills the load could push the tractor sideways. Uphill the tractor would stall then flip when the clutch was released in a lower gear. Some of those tractor were missing drawbars so the draft load would be tied onto a too high three point hitch. Or onto the upper link attachment point. Pulling a load such as a tree or log then suddenly snagging the butt of towed log on a stone,stump etc. That will flip a tractor. Of course the old classic transmission driven pto tractor with a bushhog is a killer. The intrepid driver pushes the clutch at the edge of a pond, ditch or cliff. The inertia in the spinning bushhog blales drives the pto shaft, thus the tractor transmission and flip. New and pro operators in a hurry, careless or tired flip any tractor while driving too close/too fast near ditches, ponds, road banks etc.
