What have you done to your Branson today?

[CloverKnollFarms]

Used it. Jack hammered out the concrete the builder left in the lawn under 1" of soil 5 years ago. Hauled it off, and brought up some dirt we excavated a while back to fill it in!

Finally got nice weather for enough time that at least one of the orchards got dry enough to till it. That was today's job. The other two will have to way some more time. Those take forever to dry and there is bad weather coming for a couple weeks anyway.

Not gonna lie. The little Agria would've come in handy in some spots for its low profile. However, the Branson always amazes me how nimble it is and how easy it maneuvers in tight spots.

Lights, waterproof switch box, waterproof pass throughs for wires all arrived. So I’ll be getting into this today. These are the lights I purchased. I think one will do on the rear… but we will see. I could mount both if I install a larger L bracket

I mounted two similar ones, although a bit smaller, on the back of my tractor. It's amazing the amount of light those things output. Two simple L shaped brackets bolted using the factory bolt location.

For the front, I have to smaller and slim ones mounted on each side of the winch. Not as a much light but still plenty.

I'll get some before anf after lighting photos I hope. The stock light is worthless

Installed! Waterproof box, waterproof cable gland for the wires... Not that my unit ever sees water... But why not?


Stock light off, not much difference when it's on

Poor stock light

New light

Kinda Purdy. You going to a show?

Nope. Just playing while I wait for the fields to dry. It got awful dirty last year in the clay dust.

We got lots of rain the last few days. Now I have to wait, too. Hit a unforeseen rock with my flail...a large buried rock. It needs some work before it can get back to work. Did great until then!
Moved a bunch of downed timber with the forks. Really wish I had the grapple...
So far, I haven't done any low-light work. ROPs lights are standard. Need to try them out. I could use extra lights on the side by side, though.
