Look at the ROPS on those ZT's. First pic it's mangled. That grasshopper fell off the wall looks like operator could've made out ok if wearing seat belt. The last zt the ROPS is in folded or transport position. I used to run with the ROPS folded to get under trees and rarely wore seatbelts on any my machines (cars always wear belt).
Then after having a few too close calls, I always have ROPS in proper position and always wear seat belt.
I used to think I'd jump off if it rolled and then realized that in that split second it takes to go over I'd never be able to safely get off the machine. I now wear seat belt and turtle if needed. The ROPS can only protect you if you are where it is designed to protect, the operator seat.
Also be smart mowing, I used to push limits, for what? I'd put my life on the line to save my trimming guys a few mins work. That's crazy.

Anyway sorry for the rant. But remember.

BE SAFE. ALERT TODAY ALIVE TOMORROW.
no reason we all can't go home everyday with 10 fingers and 10 toes.
