Glad you have recovered. I generally stand in front of the left tire to work the choke and starter as required. Although I "always" leave my tractors in neutral, I've got a buddy who always leaves them in gear. I never know when he may have been to the house to borrow a tractor so it is second nature for me to slap the shift lever back and forth to insure it is in neutral. I accuse him of trying to kill me, but he still leaves them in gear. I know he like my wife. So you got me to thinking, what I am doing is looking for the time when he or I take it out of gear in a hurry and the fork slips out without the rail moving the gear. I guess I'm betting my life that won't happen. What is the reward if I win that bet? I'm not a gambler, but the casinos offer better odds because if I win I get the same thing as if I don't bet.
