Thanks for the reply. I didn't know that 10 or 15 degrees is considered the limit on some CUT equipment. I always used a gut feeling. A BH or loader does raise the COG.sweeter said:
I think I'll get a tilt meter too as I often cut across the hill and sometimes I wonder how steep it actually is, even though I've been cutting it for years.

Yes, if you notice, most of the JD tractors (in the specs) will Comforms to ANSI rollover spec xyz....
Problem is without paying for a subscription you can't find out the details of the xyz spec.
The Tilt meter guy told me that the Spec for Compact Tractors is 15 degrees. In fact, they sell different meters for different (size) tractors and they turn Yellow and red at the spec's for those tractors.
Of course it all varies with load, terrain (holes), etc. but the ANSI tests are a guideline.
If you look at the TBN store http://www.tractorbynet.com/showcase/
it shows a couple there. I got one for my 2305 and my 3320 (Now 3720).
