This was in the Nashua Telegraph A teenager was pinned beneath his tractor. Fortunately he was unharmed. No details on the use of a ROPS.

I read the article, sounds like that kid had a angel watching over him that day for sure.

From the view in the picture, I see no indication of there being a roll bar on the machine. He is very luck to have survived this type of accident.

The tractor has a FEL and it appears to have been raised, based upon the extended cylinders. See attached. That and the mud the article mentions saved him.

Yea but the raised FEL and the mud is most likely what caused the problem to start with

I had one of the helpers roll the 3320 JD on it side today. He was OK. I pulled glow plugs, and manually turned over engine and then with starter..to get out oil. It was on the left side. We sucked oil fro the intake and exhaut side and then drained the muffler. After 2 hours of mowing it still smokes and seems to run rich. Any idea?

That's a 7 year old post. You'd have more luck posting your new one in the parts/repairs area.

Yeah, but if you look at post 4's picture, you'll see the tractor is NOT turned upside down.
