Steering wheel knob placement

I like that built in spinner.
Mine is bolt-on and sometimes the hardware that holds it on, hits my free hand and draws blood.
The higher quality spinners don't have any exposed metal

In a car or pickup it would look strange these days, but is perfectly acceptable on a piece of equipment, especially if one hand is operating the loader joystick.
Not sure about other states,last I knew in NH knob on the steering wheel won't pass inspection.

State inspections on vehicles.
We are talking tractors and loaders, not cars and pickups. Nobody is suggesting a wheel spinner for highway use.

Well that would require me to open my wallet 1/8" more!
Yeah, it's about $25 but I like the no exposed metal. With my old dry thin skin all I have to do is look at a sharp edge or exposed metal and I start bleeding.

The only time I ever had a steering wheel get away from me was on the narrow front end Farmall M. That could be a wristbreaker for sure!

I don't recall ever driving a tractor that didn't have one, except for my Max26xl when it was new. It wasn't long till I put one on it and I wouldn't want to go without one. Just makes the easy steering even easier in tight spots or constant back and forth directional jobs. Mine was mounted at about 10 o'clock but hasn't bothered me enough as it moves around to consider a 2nd one. Got mine from Tractor Supply. Its one of those cheap, easy add ons that I would recommend to anyone.
