And when checking battery cables etc., we mean CLEAN cables AND spots where they connect. A little wire brushing goes a long way.
About blocking the clutch...
My neighbor Fred. Very good man. Has a hay farm in Vermont with 3 4000's, a 5000, and the wife's 3000. Was out this spring/early summer bailing. Decided he needed to hop off tractor and took out of gear and left running. Doing whatever it was he felt like he needed to do, one slip at wrong time and tractor rolled over his chest, baler over his head. He died once in ambulance on way to local hospital, second time in the chopper ride to bigger hospital in region. That was May I think. He just got out of rehab thankfully to be allowed to come to Florida for the winter. He will most definitely NOT be able to drive ever again, He is fighting wife about getting rid of tractors next year.
They have to wait through the winter to find out what VA is covering and how much they will have to cover for bills. Low to medium chance they have to sell farm.
Block the clutch, oh yes. Turn the tractor off to be sure when getting off. You bet I do now.
