Yesterday I spent about 3 hours mowing an area that is filled with Thistles and Foxtail grass that is all growing to seed. Lots of fluff and seed heads blowing around.
This morning I open the hood of the tractor and the front (rad, battery, and air intake area) is filled with thistle fluff and grass seed heads!
After cleaning it all out, including the air filter (also full), I need to do something to prevent this from happening again. I have many hours of mowing still to do.
I added a course filter to the air intake so the filter is protected. But what about the front end? Any thoughts as to how I can keep the stuff from getting in?
