Hill climbing with a Kubota

Here's my bean planting tractor moved to brush/chip pile duty. I was thinking if my wife saw this picture she would want my life insurance raised. It's really not that bad, but I am driving on wood chips and brush. It's amazing how compacted they can get. This material is from our own work and local tree service companies. I then hire someone to grind it into mulch about Thanksgiving. Then sell it next spring hopefully!

As a kubota dealer just promise me you are wearing your seat belt properly? Cab will protect you in case of roll over IF you have the belt on..
 
About every farmer around here who uses bunks or stacks silage in piles at the least scared himself on a bunk or pile a time or two. One rolled his Kubota like yours last summer. The cab saved him. I'm sure the seat belt has never been used or will be. They called a wrecker, rolled it back on it's wheels and went back to pushing the pile. Many farmers push bunks with older Articulated tractors or conventionat 4WDs with Degalman Blades. I've seen a couple of 84-8640s slid down against the precast bunk walls. "bad news" turn the front up hill, back goes down or viseversa. Good way to blow out the wall, however these walls have stopped many tractors from rolling. and much better way to store and manage feed crops than piles. Final words BE CAREFUL that stuff isn't as stable as you think.
