Tractor
Kubota B3030
:newhere:I just purchased a new Kubota B3030 with cab and traded in my B7800 without a cab. The rear snow blower I had used a hand crank for rotating the chute so this needed to be automated to use with a cab tractor. I spent some time reviewing posts on this forum and others to come up with the following set-up. Parts: 2500 lb Trakker winch, 30 amp locking plug, 1/2" heat shrink, electrical tape, tie wraps,60 amp inline fuse instead of dc circuit breaker that came with winch, 4" - 1/4" flat bar, 1 1/2 X 1/4" angle iron etc. Used #6 AWG wire etc that came with the winch and used the chassis as ground. This worked fine as there is no load on the winch and it draws very little current. The solenoid(contactor) was mounted on the tractor and the remote inside. Here are some pictures of the completed project.
Thanks to everyone for your ideas.:)

Welcome, and that looks good.

Let us know what you choose for a backup camera and monitor.

From personal experience, I suggest you avoid the Flea-Bay junk.
