Used properly, a tractor is a reasonably stable machine. If it is used im- properly, it can injure and kill as quickly as a gun. Guard yourself and your employees from tractor roIl-over accidents - make sure your next tractor has roll-over protection. It is cheap insurance when you consider what it does. "DO IT OUR WAY - IT WON'T HURT" This has been a message from the Farm Safety Association.
