Tractor rolled over on me this morning

Be safe. Hire a toe service to get it back up. No matter what, when you get it set on it's feet do NOT try to start it. Open each cylinder via the Glow Plugs or Injectors to let any possible fluids out! Trying to set the tractor upright without the experience or the correct equipment could cost you more in damages than the cost of a professional help.

I don't think a PRO would look over at the phone ringing for a hundred bucks.

Nasty picture but still hard to determine terrain or overall landscape.

Think it may have to set like that for a day or two. Really sore right now especially my lower back. I think when it rolled over the canopy hit me in the small of my back right above my butt. Know my elbow is hurting as well. One of those things where the adrenaline is pumping and you don't feel anything initially. We shall see what tomorrow brings. Thanks everyone for your comments. I will definitely call a pro to help.

second this, call a pro. Its usually like $100

you don't list the State you're in!.. yes, that's a fair price in many States, but not all.. so, what State do you live in?. maybe the OP lives in your State, and can benefit from your input!..

BTW: I don't agree that trying to "jumping free" is the best method. It's hard to land on your feet, lucky if there even flat ground to do so, and then get away from 8000 lbs that might still be chasing you with large spinning blades.

I agree, too many things to get caught on (such as the shifter, loader control, etc, etc) to risk trying to jump free. I buckle up anytime the tractor is moving more than just out of the barn to park it on the driveway. Yes it takes an extra 5 seconds, but 98% of the time I would be better off if the tractor rolled and I'm buckled in.

WOW, people down there must work cheap. Someone backs a tow truck up to a car, that takes five minutes and it could cost $500.00. God help you if it sits in their yard!

I live in Alabama. And by the way screw "Roll Tide". I am an Auburn fan. I always said that if the university of Alabama played again a team coached by ***** Bin Laden and the players were Taliban I would be in the stands screaming "Go Taliban!!!!!!"

Is that the picture when he was using his walkie talkie? Doesn't he know that Coaches use those BIG headsets?

the tractor will crush you in the seat that way if you have a 2 point ROPS. not good for most people!..

I NEVER wear a seat belt, unless I feel that I am in danger. I think if the tractor were to roll over, you would be better off wearing a seat belt. Water, maybe being the only exception, in my opinion only.
