New house just moved in 1/2 mile drive last 300 yards steep incline with a crest at the top then a landing to the road. Was going to get blade at my brothers/ neighbors house on a John Deere 4010 made it almost all the way spun out at the crest of the hill, started sliding back and jamed on brakes motor started to die and luckily rememberedI wouldn't have anything if it died let of the brakes spun it wide open. Slid down backwards 150 yards. Nearly jumped off, should have put it in the ditch but didn't think that fast. Sat there for a good 5 minutes shaking.Now I only use our small 4x4 to plow drive... Brother did same thing on 100hp 4x4 coming down the hill didn't have it in 4x4 and was in too high of a gear started sliding and did a 360 luckily there was a large root ball that stopped the tractor before flipping, tractor was only 3 days old had push button 4x4 that re-set after tractor was tuned off not like are other one.. Other close call was going to county fair pull had backed my Jd g on and was loading dads super m has a jumpy clutch and was trying to angle it on good top of ramps popped clutch front came up started to turn scared the day lights out of me, needless to say parked it back in the garage... I try to be as safe as possible my grandfather lost 4 fingers in a picker on a Jd 70 in the 50's not shutting off pto he was always on me about safety but it sure does happen fast...

Today's Featured Article - The Nuts and Bolts of Fasteners - Part 2 - by Curtis Von Fange. In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes. In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together. When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and ... [Read Article]
