Bad Boy 5055CS
I have the 5055CS tractor and use the 12’ batwing clipper. My AC is almost worthless when it’s hot (90+) and sunny. If it’s cooler or cloudy it seems to work pretty good. Is there a problem with it or am I expecting too much? The cab is like a green house or more like a sauna when hot. What are your experiences? Thanks in advance.

I don’t own Bad Boy but my experience is similar, tractor cabs have a lot of window space so bright sunshine definitely cuts down the cooling effects of air conditioning.

Different tractor, but I have to keep the AC condenser and radiators clean as a whistle for my AC to keep up while bush hogging. I take a leaf blower with me and leave it beside the field when I know it is going to be bad. Back at the shop I use an air wand and a water wand to reverse flush everything occasionally. There are detergents to help break the schmoo up when it is time for a deep clean.

The greenhouse effect is a thing. Some guys tint their cabs. I wish I had some kind of window blinds like you see in heavy equipment.
