I want to mount my small 15 gal spot sprayer to the back of my B7800 on a small 3-pt hitch platform. Is there an unused circuit I can use in the back of the tractor for power? Perhaps an unused circuit for a worklight?

The only circut in the rear is over by the rh fender, both power and ground. By the rops

For what it's worth, a person not far from where I live did the exact same thing with his 2410. Since he already had a rear work light tied into the unused plug/circuit at the back of the tractor, he ran (neatly) a lead from the battery with an inline fuse to the back of the tractor. He then installed a toggle switch and plugs for the sprayer pump (the whole spray unit is mounted to a 3 pt platform). Pretty neat set-up and he's been using it for years.

The rear mount is what I have been thinking and I planned to just hook to the lead for the work light. I could also make a small bracket to hook to the front tractor frame--weight bracket--and go with a fused but direct hookup to the battery. I plan to remove this when not using.
I figured I could have a shop bend a pice of maybe 3/16 steel so the bracket just slips over the front of the frame--no bolts--and un-slips when done. Like a frent end weight.
I will spray only three or four times a year so this would work?.
