New Toro GT Pics

[cokeman]

I decided to get out of the lawn cutting and post hole drilling business this year. I have too much work to do around my own place and there is just not enough hours in a day. I only have a half acre lot so I couldn't justify keeping the BX for that amount of grass. Here is what I bought.

First Pic. I ripped out most of my lawn and reseeded. It's starting to fill in now. At least it's green.

Here is a closeup from the front

I already installed a headlight switch. It doesn't seem right to run lights in the bright sunlight. I put this switch above the throttle control.

Last pic. It looks to be a fairly stout little machine as far as non commercial stuff goes. I hope to get a lot of years out of it since I'll only be cutting my own grass with it.

Nice lookin tractor.

I like the headlight switch mod, I might try that on my Cub.

Thanks. I like it but I find the front looks kind of odd. It's not as good looking as a Cub but I'm getting used to it. Yours doesn't have a switch either?

The headlights stay on all the time on my cub.

I installed 3 toggle switches on the dash, 2 for the johnnybucket jr and 1 for the sleeve hitch. I also installed a cigarette lighter. But I think I can find room for one more for the headlight switch.....I just gotta figure out which wires to tap into.

The toggle switches for the JBjr came with rubber boots, when I got my electric sleeve hitch from ebay, it had no boot. I found some rubber boot covers online, I'll try to attach a pic for you.

Very nice. Looks like it came from the factory like that.

Nice looking Toro! In Canada shouldn't the headlights be on during the day also???

Ha Ha! I don't think big brother has branched out into 'Lawn and Garden Safety' yet.
