Good Lord Frank that sounds painful. Yes it could have been worse but that’s some pretty big injuries you sustained.
Question, I see a lot of guys use equipment trailers with those big fold down ramps that have the large gaps in them and try to load garden tractors with them. The small wheels fall in the gaps so they try to straddle the flat bars that connect them and it’s very dicey and unsafe. Does your trailer have that style of ramps? I have a friend that loads on them too and he stands beside the tractor and drives it up but this is still unsafe.
I always try to make the ramps as even as possible like john shows with his dump trailer but I know this can’t always be done. Seems the decks always like to hang any other way and it can go bad fast as stated above.
Thanks for sharing and this will help others and remind us all that we can’t be too safe. Hope you recover quickly sir.
