Abstract

The number of four-wheel drive tractors in use on and off farms continues to increase. On steep sloping land, the four-wheel drive tractor is much safer to operate than the equivalent two-wheel drive. Thus, failure to engage four-wheel drive when needed is becoming an increasing hazard, causing many serious tractor accidents. This technical note describes two techniques for alerting the driver of this hazard should he forget.
