daTeacha said:Now you've got me thinking -- are any tractor seat belts inertia type? An inertia belt may not tighten in a slow roll, which could allow the operator to get caught under something painful in a tip over that didn't put the tractor on it's head like a full rollover would. How many of us wear the things cinched down as tightly as they should be? Is a loose belt on a tractor going to cause more problems than it prevents?
You pinpointed one of my minor annoyances. My seatbelt is not inertia type, but I am constantly having to adjust it to keep it tight. I don't seem to have figured out the trick on the placement of the keeper to keep the belt the length I set it at. Rarely do I get in the seat that I don't have to retighten the belt.
