Operating on Slopes - Rear Tire Spacing

   / Operating on Slopes - Rear Tire Spacing #11  
Timely Topic! I had my B7500 out yesterday moving stumps into a pile. I'm not sure what the slope is in the area I was working. I had the left rear tire off the ground twice. /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif Fortunately I was operating in low range and very slowly as I felt I was operating at the edge of the envelope. If I reacted inappropriately moving or turning in the wrong direction it could have been ugly. I plan to widen my rears as much as I can as my property has little flat ground.

Besides creating additional laundry, I learned a great deal about the machine. I haven't decided if I was being foolish or carefully exploring the performance envelope. I would prefer the later but suspect the former.
