Heres a good pic of when I finally got time to mount my work lights on the back of my monster tractor and it works fantastic. My only complaint is its 2 times brighter than my headlights, If only I could put these bulbs in the front lights/w3tcompact/icons/hmm.gif/w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

That Befco blade looks just like the one on my TC 29D. So far it seems like a well-made blade to me.

Has anyone figured out how many auxiliary lights the alternator on an L3010 can support? Like Jim, I'd really like to put a pair facing forward.

Hi Pete,

Using a 40 amp alternator would handle ~500 watt load... so properly distributed... you can have all sorts of lighting... /w3tcompact/icons/cool.gif

Ex. if each lamp is about 55 watts... you can run a total of 9 lamps... the ninth one can be a "Cyclops" center mounted and can turn as you turn the tractor... and now... even MarkC could be envious… /w3tcompact/icons/tongue.gif/w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

DD,

Just curious why you didn't mount them up high on the ROPS. Would have allowed you to mount them with a swivel (or something) to point forward or reverse...

Glueguy, I was thinking of doing that but I am a rather large person and I was afraid that the only thing I would see is this large melon head shadow cast in front of me with a hat on/w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif I was happy with how much light it cast out but that is when I realized just how dim the front lights are. I was hoping someone would notice the stay fender I installed that is for the B2410/w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

GlueGuy,

I just bought some lights and was thinking about a swivel for that exact reason. Do you, or anyone, have any ideas on what to look for? I couldn't think of something that would work, so I was going to use it as an excuse to walk through the hardware store and spend more $$.

The front lights on my B7500 were much better than I had expected last winter (which is when I took delivery of it).

This winter, they seemed terrible.

Turns out that all of the dust from the summertime work had coated the bulb and the inside lens. Pulled them out and washed them, and they're probably five times brighter now.

So if your lights are not as bright as you think they should be, might just need some cleaning.
