Sideways on a hill is always superior because it will not roll that direction. Use the brake lock (with working brakes it is not a problem. If children are around, I would put a bolt through the flipper hole of a diameter that would keep the flipper from being depressed (kids try all levers and pedals). Low gear (1st) is almost impossible to drag the tractor to turn the engine over. It will slide the tires. So 1st is the answer. I would block the wheels against a RR tie if I thought there was a remote chance of children being around the tractor at all. I would also use a battery disconnect switch in the battery cable to prevent the starter from being used to make it go. I hope this helps. Jim
