But the distance you travel to raise/drop a foot of elevation (at 100%) is 1.414 ft (square root of 2)

I don't hardly ever get scared on it. I also have a Kubota 4x4 100hp with a cab and it puts the seat up so high I get scared real easy.
I turned over a David Brown when I was 15 or so. But it wasn't steep, I was just stupid.
If the baler turned over without hitting something or dropping in a hole it was definitely too steep to be on sideways.
Wow that says 20 degrees also.jltrent":3290rlhx said:Here is a video of how easy it is to turn a tractor over.

Dun, that's great advice not only for tractors but many other farm chores.dun":3ej9xupu said:Lately my decision point has been if looking at it makes me pucker up I don;t do it.

Wheels all the way out, fluid in tires, no fel, but front weights on a 100 hp tractor. Hard to turn over unless there is a nut behind the wheel.

My son not thinking about swinging the boom up hill while climbing a rise. That's the 3rd time in 10 years for the hoe.

Tires set wide with 2 sets of weights and rear tires filled. I take the loader off on some of our really steep ground. Having something heavy on the drawbar to keep the a$$ planted like discbine or baler certainly helps. Something like the rake or tedder makes it a little hairier. 4wd on and finger usually on the diff lock switch to turn on and off as needed. Really helps in the tricky spots to keep from sliding on the hill but you better be ready to turn it off if you need to steer at all. Just have to know how to push the limits without getting over confident...
