If you're going to work with big pieces of machinery, on a hill, and for a long period of time (an hour or more), wear a pair of jeans.
I was mowing my lawn some weeks ago and the grass was slippery from a previous rainy day. I had just prepared my mower for an onslaught vs the lawn just when I slipped on some sputtered grass. The mower was pulled back into a rocketship launch position and I habitually landed on my knee. Guess what, ouch. Scrapped my knee on the pavement next to the lawn and boom, there was blood, there was a smokey lawn mower from being tipped back like it had been.
Wear jeans, you might risk damaging them, but you save yourself a lot of minor physical harm.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
