Before the safety police take a look, I hope the ROPS locking bolts are in place when you use the tractor.

If you like getting out of the sun the canopy is the way to go. Made mine from a El Camine truck cap, does the job. I may have $20 in it....

Very nice job and it looks great!!

I made a canopy using electrical conduit for the frame and two 4X4 aluminum road signs for the top.

I made it so the top will also cover the seat on the backhoe attachment, and when I'm using the BH I'm out of the sun & rain.

I think i have $30 in the whole thing, But the signs was gave to me from the state road department.

I also mounted a fan under my canopy and it helps a lot.

Thanks for sharing yours!

I took an mounted a Golf Umbrella to my tractor. It was $20 and is 100% UV-blocker. I mounted it to a board that i clamp onto my rops with C-clamps. It goes on and off in 20 seconds time and really keeps me cool in the hot sun. :thumbsup:

I love this canopy idea. I am wondering if I could purchase a golf cart enclosure that drapes over the canopy and get some shelter from the extreme winter storms up here? What do you think?

I have a golf cart canopy on my tractor and I got a golf cart enclosure from golfsmith.com for winter use. It stops a lot of the wind, rain or blowing snow. It also holds some of the engine heat in.

Thanks for responding! Did you have to install supports at the front of the canopy to hold the weight of the cart enclosure?
