Yesterday I decided to revamp a case sleve hitch to fit on the 3ph on my 755. My father in law said it was a waste of time, but I thought it was Saturday and it would be a fun project. After looking at one of the posts on here about another plow that had been modified to work on a Kubota I was really inspired to make mine work. I was standing on a piece of steel to try and bend it a little when it rolled out from under me, causing me to lose my balance and fall on the plow and my forehead to hit the 3ph arm. I thought I was going to pass out but I managed to get up, get my hat and walk to the house. When I got in side I got a towel and wiped away the blood and thats when I knew I was going to need stitches. About that time my son came out of his room and about freaked. He said where is Mom. His mother was at a baby shower so he really was nervous. I told him to call her and get me some ice. We went to the hospital and the E.R. nurse was a friend of ours so she got a good laugh. A plastic surgeon was on duty so 15 stitches to the forehead and a tetanus shot and I was good as new. Today i have some bruises on my leg and butt and a sore back. I think I will just wait a day or two to finish the plow and watch nascar today.

Boy...that steel doesn't give much, does it?

Trust me...loader arms don't either! I had the bruises to prove it. No blood though..not this time.

My wife know how high the loader is by the rips in my pants and the bruises on my legs. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Dang. Hope you heal fast.

Isn't it amazing how much you can bleed from a head wound?
What is up with that?

The only thing that bleeds more than a head wound is a shot to the wallet. /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Glad he is O.K. /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

Glad you are "....and I was good as new....".
Got to be careful around these toys.
