Well, here's my "glad I had a seat switch" story. Was out mowing the yard with my ex JD STXt38 when I ran the front end into a big fur tree. The roots were kind of ramp like, and before I could hit the clutch, the mower had climbed the tree far enough for the mower to flip right over on top of me. Them things are kind of heavy! Beings it was upside down on top of me, and the mower kept running, I was having one of those flashes what might be going to happen to me next. This was kind of terrifying, so I mustered the wherewithal to push the thing off of myself and it fell to one side. Once the seat was unloaded the motor shut down which was comforting.
This was in "interesting" experience. An experience that has inspired me to read a whole bunch of safety related posts about using a real tractor. Was an experience that made me a believer in seat switches. However, if the blades were not running, the engine would keep going, which makes sense.
That which does not kill you may make you smarter,
