A trick my foster father / father in law taught us when we were kids learning to operate tractors was to tie a string / rope on a heavy bolt, rock or hitch pin and carry it with us. If we questioned a slope, hold the sting to the highest part of the tractor (except the exaust pipe), if it fell to the ground outside the wheel print of the tractor ( the rectangle or triangle a rope around the tires on the gorund would create ) you were pushing the limits. Time to back off. The only time my sister rolled a tractor we did some figuring and the line was 2' outside the safe zone. Yes, she was more or a daredevil than I was. I know this is a long post but I hope it helps. Dick
