Gravity won the best of me.

So what happened? In the picture it doesn't look like much of a hill.
Glad you are ok. . . hows the tractor?

I'm glad you're ok but how did you keep from spilling your beer? :)

2/3 of the mass of the BH is above the center of gravity. Not very effective as FEL ballast on a sidehill. Don't know if ithe bucket was off center downhill before but if so it compounded the problem. Hope your engine faired well. Did you have your seatbelt on ??? MikeD74T

I was attempting to pull a tree that had fallen across the creek. I had already cut the stump off. While pulling the log....**** went south quick, and I rolled over.

I'm glad your OK.

I see a chain on the tree you had cut.... Was you pulling on it or lifting it ?

I'm also glad you didn't go in the water.

1. Always move the hoe to the uphill side on a sidehill.

2. If you need more counterbalance, extend the hoe.

3. Always remember to re-center the hoe when you get back on the level.
