Getting Stuck pics

Fun Pictures!!!!

Of course, if you can get it out on it's own, your not really stuck, just delayed!!!!

Here's a few of my stuck pictures. The dozer took all day and a very big hole with the backhoe to create a ramp to get it out.

The dumptruck took two backhoes to pull it out, but luckily it was only an hour job.

I've buried my CUT more times then I can count. If it wasn't for my backhoe to pull it out, I don't think I'd even try to mow around my shoreline. Since I can pull it out in a few minutes, I push it and deal with it when it happens.

The backhoe has never been stuck. I've buried it many times, but with enough time, I've always been able to get it out with the hoe. I sometimes worry that if I had 4wd, that I'd get so stuck that I couldn't get it out with the hoe stick. My neigbbor has 4wd on his backoe, and got it so stuck that he had to hire a trackhoe to get him out. That was pretty bad!!!

"Anybody else??????????????????????????"

This stuck took me two days to figure out. The BH and FEL were of no help. I finally inched it out with a come-a-long. The hot mud really stunk.http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/attachments/rural-living/59558d1155857392-104-degrees-means-dry-top-tractorstuckday2.jpg

Rtdiggr,

Yup, I did that circus trick myself a couple times.

You have to be really careful, because at that angle the tractor could roll over on it's side without too much effort. Keep the bucket low, seatbelt fastened, and do everything very slowly.

That is funny you say that because as i keep sinking i was thinking this time i could acually tip .... Safety was just how you say it should be.

Question: Why are some tractors painted orange?

Answer: So you can see them underwater!

Don

Edit: PS: It doesn't look like you are stuck. It looks more like you are leaning into a turn. Ha!

Shane, if that was a reflection, the tractor would be sitting in the treetops.

TB, sure glad it wasn't me!

About getting stuck, I bought a JD2555 which I managed to get stuck several times. Finally got the wife to agree to a FWA tractor. Found a Ford 7710 with FWA and Dual rear wheels. Used it to pull the JD out a couple of times. The first off site job I used the Ford for, was to mow a perculation pond at a forklift business. I was just going to drive down the middle and mow each side as I did. The pond had a false bottom on it, as the cattails dying created a layer of hard stuff, that held me up when I walked on it, but wouldn't support a tractor much less a big one. I drove into the end of the pond and down it went to the frame. I stopped, shifted into reverse and let the clutch out. Just spinning wheels, so I stepped on the diff-loc and all six tires started spinning. I was just about to give up and call a high dollar wrecker (Sunday, holiday weekend, off road wrecker required) when it seemed to want to move. I gave her some fuel and held onto hope, and she started to move, very slowly. It was suctioned in, frame dragging, but it finally came out to my relief!

You guys do remember the poem my Daughter wrote about getting the JD stuck, don't you???

The Girl Who Hated the Deere
by: Brandi
There once was a girl,
Who was known in many lands
Who hated working outside,
Especailly with her hands.

She was getting really tired,
Of working all the time
It even made her so sick
That she wrote this little rhyme.

Her dad got this idea,
He needed some sort of tractor,
Brandi hated helping,
So he knew money wasn't a factor.

He finally found the one,
So perfect it drew a tear,
It was big and yellow and green,
And on the side was painted "Deere".

Brandi was thrilled
With the free time she had
Now that she wasn't outside
Having to help out her dad.

She was having so much fun,
Til her dad came in to say,
He had gotten that Deer stuck,
And he needed it out today!

Brandi drove the chevy,
That trusty old truck.
To help with her dad,
so they could get the Deere unstuck.

They used come-alongs and chains,
And finally pulled it out of the mud.
Then when they thought they had finished,
Well, that's when they heard the "thud!"

Now to get the truck back home,
They had to use the Deere.
Her Dad pushed the truck,
And told Brandi just to steer.

It was over 100 degrees,
and the chevy wouldn't run,
So Brandi sat there miserably,
Having nothing close to fun.

When they got it to the gate,
Brandi sighed cause they were done.
Now Brandi could just rest,
She was too tired to have fun.

So this is to all the kids,
Who's daddy's own a Deere...
Don't let him drive it in the mud!
Tell him to just steer clear!
