I recently bought 2 tractors. On inspection it was found that both of them had only one rear tire loaded. This is a severe roll over hazard. If you are buying tractors or operating unfamiliar equipment, please be aware of this potential danger. Just putting it up a trailer could kill you.

I'm not being flippant- I've recently discovered both my tractors each have only one tire loaded. They've been like that for years, longer than I've owned them and they're used in pretty rough circumstances. What specifically is the danger? Ger

On a bank or slope, the tractor will be more likely to roll over towards the side of the loaded tire. For example, if you were mowing a ditch with the loaded tire to the bottom, you would be in a dangerous situation.
