Drowning in knee-deep water ...

[ProjectKing]

has anyone ever seen a zero turn with the rops up? I never have.

I run with mine up 100%. Never want a 1500 lbs zero turn laying on me!

Jeep flipped into a small pond at an annual 4WD rally in Anchorage - 45 years ago. Seat belt and roll bar were in use. About 30 seconds and NO SHOW - six to eight of us guys jumped into the pond and turned the Jeep upright. Driver survived but he puked up half a pond of water. He was upside down, he panicked and he could not figure how to unbuckle the seat belt. He was very lucky - it was a very sobering situation. There were a LOT of children there that witnessed this event. I'm certain it left a lasting impression on many.

I have, mine, my neighbors, but I've never seen a landscaper with the ROPS deployed, they are always down.

Nope. All I致e seen are down as is mine. Go under too many trees and our land is pretty flat.

Now just apply spray foam to the underside of the shade, for insulation and flotation!

Mine is up 100% of the time, I actually had mine retrofitted 3-4 years ago, eXmark came out with a program that allowed owners to have them installed, if they had not been built with one, and since mine is 1999 vintage, it had not so they installed one for free
