tractor safety

Watch out about getting home before your wife and pulling the tractor out to wash and wax it, then park it in the garage.. you will get caught! I just did!!

as in most of the accidents which happen, it seems to be operator error! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

My TC-40D is so covered in mud presently that my wife is threatening to wash it for me if I don't do it first. Maybe I can keep coming up with other projects so she can get wet herself. /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Caught washing and waxing my tractor ? NEVER.....Well washing maybe, but never waxing /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif Just keep it well maintained, out of the weather but not worried about the shine. Of course in FL the sun will be rougher on them than up here without wax.

Here's a tip... wash her car first. It will lessen the danger. Much safer to operate in this manner. Learned that from my dad. /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

It was the 'parade queen' allis G I was waxing in prep for the show next weekend. Still.. there was a tense moment when the wife came home, and it was obvious that I had detailed every crevice of that tractor.. etc...

I ended up doing alot of foot rubbing later that night...

Soundguy,
Since it was a restored tractor going to be in a parade, I do understand the waxing.

The worst possible tractor accident would be the wife silently parking behind the tractor then me coming out and hoping on it and backing into her front end...... /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif

Would I ever hear the end of that story......?

Not on this world I wouldn't! /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif
