Compression starting a 430 with a reverser

I thought I read that Mr Thinker said we shouldn't compression start a 430 with a reverser.
Is this true and what are the dangers?

Since the reverser is a gear type I fail to see why one couldn't "tow start" a 430 BUT as b&d mentioned many wide frt axle brackets have been broken by not towing correctly
 
Actually I have never pull started any of our John Deeres but wanted to know if a starter went on one of the ones with a reverser if I could pull start it to get it home and fixed.
