Farmers get it wrong

Yeah they ara but alot of fun aswell was in a 2.8 tonne few weeks ago had it resting on it blade all the way down and the tracks at the back were 5' in the air came crashing down and I bounced if the rood won't do that again !

That handler is probably fine. I rolled a Terex onto it's side a few years ago.

I was inexperienced and ran up onto a pile of spoil with a full, extended bucket.

Crash! onto it's side as one wheel went higher than the other!

Good thing it was the door I fell onto that was closed:thumbup1:

 

Fortunately the only damage was a bit of cover damage on the boom where it hit an old cowshed on the way down and some stones between the tyre and rim:thumbup:

I have pushed over a few trees like that, though you have to be extremely dumb to have forks etc on yet alone have them either side of the tree!

They tried that on an estate near me some time ago, probably to save money. The loadall went over like in that video, but crushed and killed a bloke stood next to it.

Dont put all us farmers in the same boat

Indeed, (being a farmers son), there is as in ALL trades the odd handless one, but mostly farmers can & will turn their hand to anything, and are generally successful too:001_tt2: & Especially with ANYTHING mechanical.

If in doubt take a vist to the britishfarmingforum and draw your own conclusions.

However as yer lumberjack said

"Ya caint fix stupid"

That is all.
