Anyone ever roll over a tractor?

I haven't quite gone over yet (and hope it never happens). It can be either really quick or quite slo-mo; in either case, I bet you have just enough time to wish you hadn't left the ROPS folded.

Links to other tractor sites are automatically filtered out? That seems unnecessary.

Odd, that is the first time I have seen it. Perhaps there is some kind of disagreement between Muhammed and Green Tractor Talk.
This link should work: 1026R Rollover

I nearly rolled my Kubota on day 2 of owning it. I will also say I cut my teeth on heavy equipment but never on anything 5 ft wide. I had a lot of weight in bucket and had to be lifted 5 feet off the ground. Only a slight slope but tractors side lifted up. I hung my rear end over the side and phoned my neighbor who has a skidsteer. He came over and we safely got the bucket down and all four wheels back on the ground. I felt like an idiot but came to realize just how dangerous small tractors can be. Since then I widened by rear wheels by 8" and constructed a 1,000 lb weight for the 3ph. Live and learn...

Anytime that you use a loader on your tractor you should have a counterweight on the back end. This is extremely important if you have a smaller CUT tractor. A loaded bucket will just about get your back end off the ground and surely will while driving if you hit a good bump.
