Got the plow stuck

[WH nut 553]

Have to be quick on the kill switch.

Yeah...that could leave a mark.

I've done that on my black 401 a couple of times catching on a tree root I think. It can be scary! I took pictures once but I think I deleted them, it was higher than yours was in the front.

I've had that issue with my 854. I actually made a front "mast" that hangs off the tractor to keep weight out front. i would hang 50lbs about 12" in front of the front axle. I know that doesn't help with roots per say, but it does keep the front end down when plowing and makes it less susceptible to pull up.

 

I did that with my 1054 once, had it way up high, that was pretty scary!

I had a few of those over time.  Sold my plow with my 314.  Kids all grew up and moved on.  No need for a big garden anymore.  I kinda miss it at this time of year.

WEEEEEE !!!!!

[SCOOBY 312-h 14]

i can honestly say i have never plowed like that but that would make me nervous a little. the only time i tiped a tractor up like that is when i was doin wheelies. did you have to dig it out or could you back out of it?

Could have been worse - you could have hit a power or gas line...

Nice...... You get used to that after awhile    . I use front end weights too. By the way, The front end of a 520 will do the same thing. Even with front weights. As mine would tell you

Happened to me once on a bigger unit, when turned around and saw had mili seconds to hit clutch or Ida been an ER number, so glad you caught before it got rared up too much.Powerful little booger, isn't he!!

I actually hit a gas line last year with my homemade subsoiler... lucked out as it was a plastic line that was run to the barn. Kinked it but it worked itself out in a day or two. But yeah, be aware of what beneath the ground before you drop a plow!

It was standing on end, this is after i got off it and got the cell phone out to take a picture. It had settled by then

Just backed it out after changing britches

you got lucky,i was dragging a large rock one time and it caught a root,flipped the tractor on top of me faster than a blink of an eye,got stabbed by the implement lifting arm,and the tires were flailing on me,it wasnt pretty

This wasnt the first time she bucked, had my hand on the kill switch. Much better to kill it then try to reach the clutch and throw my weight further back
