A guy brought a load of trusses for me. When we got them unloaded, I told him to pull straight through a wide gate into the hay field (recently cut) and make as big of a swing as he needed to turn around. I showed him the electric line to my shop and told him I'd watch to make sure he'd clear it. He must have had six inches of clearance - I stepped off of the running board and he made his circle in the field. I had walked back to the pile of trusses when I heard a racket. On the way out of the field, he caught the line to the shop and pulled it down off of the building. There was a slight incline there, and the only thing I can figure is that incline lowered his rig going in and raised it going out. Kinda like my shop door - I can back the tractor in, but the stack won't clear driving in forward. He was dismayed about tearing down the line and started to give me company info, but I waved him off - I'm the one who talked him into driving through there, and I should have stuck around to help him get back out.
I rented a trencher the next day and buried every line on the place.

Well, he decided to go get Mom out of the house and have her drive the tractor while he walked behind the plow. You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o
