Gearclash Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 Just happened yesterday. Wheel bolts went AWOL. At least it happened here at a modest speed rather than on the road at 25mph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

12_Guy Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 I got the zero turn stuck in the road ditch tonight but I didn't think it was worth a picture. Besides you guys have probably already seen it - both back wheels in the ditch and the front wheels on the road. Does that count? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INTERNATIONAL 1466 Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 The life of cattleman when it rains, rains, rains! Worst stuck I have done to date. Lost my boots in the slop and finished in my socks. Pulled her out with the 1486 shown with all the weights. Had the 14 on the cement and still had to unhook the bale processor to get her out. Then retrieved the bale processor with both. Had about 120 feet of chain to get to the 14. Really bad day! This was in 2018 when we had 74 inches of rain in a summer. Our normal is 25.

Lazy WP Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 Not sure if I shared these before, but I was probably as scared as I have ever been when I got the bidirectional stuck trying to pull the pickup out. The bottom of the canyon is over 100 feet down. Week number 3 of the new job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Z turn is a Scag Cougar with a bin, so when it slides into the ditch it hangs on the tailwheel and the deck - drives off the ground. I always love the walk to get the loader and chain?

I always love the walk to get the loader and chain? I’ve made that walk before ? I used to work for a guy mowing who had a Woods 1852, great mower but literally get stuck in its own shadow.

td9inidaho Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 There seems to be similar situations when kids use our equipment, never thought it possible, but my son buried the td9 so bad he broke the winch cable and the 8 wouldn't help either. Had to lift it several times and place logs under it to finally get it out Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
