Well I flipped my 110!!! What a day!

Well I figured it would eventually happen and it did. I was pushing a tree out and there was about six things that went wrong all at the same time and ultimately led to it laying on its drivers side. I must say that makes a six flags roller coaster ride look like a little kiddie ride. I excaped with only a scraped finger and a small cut on my leg. The hoe escaped with only a small cut in the canopy on the very top and you can only see it if you are standing on a tire or the hood. The engine wouldn't start/cranks cause of oil in the pistons but I got the injectors out and it turned over reassembled and if fired up. Good as new for now. I only hope that doesn't happen again. /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif

Yikes /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif Good to hear you're OK and the machine seems to have fared well too. Must have been quite an experience. Seat belt on?

Glad you and the tractor came out of it with only minor issues.

Can/will you elaborate on what happened?

BTW - Which is the "drivers side" on a tractor? /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

too bad you don't have a NH, ftom what I am hearing, they stand themselves Upright, and their hood props are a lot stronger! /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Glad you and the tractor are all right!

I can pretty much guess what happened to cause your roll over . Been there a few times myself . The best thing to do is just go ahead and throw the underwear away . The marks will be hard to remove . /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

At least we can laugh about it at the end of the day /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Well I was pushing a tree out and it slipped off the tree (the tree was leaning away and turning. It slid up and off on rode up about 4 feet then fell off and the uphill tire landed on a root ball that was under the tree I was pushing on. Then it just slammed it over since the other tire was not on the ground. The outrigger roll cage loader arm and bucket hit at the same time and just thudded and that was it. I didn't have a seat belt on that was prollably better in this instance since I landed on my feet inside the cage. I prolly would have slammed my head on the ground or my elbow on the ground if I had it on. It cost about $250 for new air filters and a few hours labor and it runs again. I got off reallllllllllly lucky LOL.
