cut sunshade in half

TractorDale · Jun 11, 2006

....so I could fit the machine into my garage. Cut all the metal(did not touch the ROPS), made hinges, welded everyting up and voila. Still room for another car. If I had to do over, I would fabricate my own shield rather than spend the $500 it cost (my wife's surprise gift).

Someone asked to see how it is mounted and not sure if this pic shows enough-can post others.

Wow. Too bad there was no way to make the entire canopy top fold back to prevent the cut.

Have you tried it yet while raining? Maybee some weather stripping or a piece of flexible rubber can be applied tot he underside to prevent a light gap.. or rain gaip?

good work.
