I got scared over the weekend. My trailor broke on me, I guess loading wet clay into it with a lightly welded trailor jack wasnt a good idea. I never planned to haul dirt with the trailor, so I'll be revisiting the jack welds. So I decided to just haul the dirt with the loader, maybe 500 feet. Well, I didnt see the big clod I dropped when picking it up and I tooker ino 4th and my front tire hit the clod of dirt, ripped the wheel out of my hand, a hard sharp right turn and bam i slammed on the clutch/brakes. Scared the crap outta me. Now I'm a bit more careful. Impractical and expensive as it would be, I would feel alot safer with a rollbar, but mounting it to the 300u would be a challenge to do it right where it wouldnt break some casting on a hard rollover. Just gotta be careful and take my time. Alot quicker then a shovel in any event.

Magman, it is a good reminder to us all. Harvest time is stress time and the weather makes it worse, we get in a hurry, take short cuts, take chances, we feel pressured to get things done and the stress can cause poor decision making. I've done it myself, overload wagons, go up an extra gear, work into the dark, get over tired...all can cause results like you posted...Mike in Exeter Ontario
