Canopy Where to find a canopy for a 6520

[Arkinsaw Dave]

Can anyone tell me where I might find a canopy for a Mahindra 6520?? I'm thinking I'd like to go with metal vs fiberglass. Shor would appreciate any pointers. Thank you.

Start looking here PERRY CO-UNI-FIT CANOPY.
Good luck and let us know how the search turns out.

I have a Perry on my 6000. The only problem with it is the piece of trim that covers the sharp edges gets knocked loose while bush hogging around the edges of fields. I finally just removed it. Now the remaining sharp edge digs into any branches that come by and it is bending it.

My solution is to get a piece of angle iron and bolt it across the front edge. That should ride any limbs up and over the top.

Of course, if you aren't going to expose the canopy to limbs, this is not a problem.

Otherwise, I do like the Perry and would recommend it over the fiberglass or plastic canopies.

Use some good epoxy glue and glue the trim back on. They have very good glues today, but they are not cheap.

I just installed a Bare Co Canopy on my 2615. It was about $325.00, and has a very sturdy frame, and the polyethelene material is very tough.BARE-Co Standard Canopy

Arkinsaw Dave,
Here is a photo of my canopy on my 6520. I am not home right now, so I can't tell you the brand. But I bought it from my dealer with the tractor. He got it from either Lousianna or Arkansas. Numerous outfits make the aluminum canopies with the insulation on it above the angle iron frame.
hugs, Brandi

That is a Perry canopy.

Happy hunting!

Brandi, that is a Perry Canopy. I bought mine based on your recommendation made in another post. In fact, I bought the same thing and am satisfied with my decision.

TractorSunshade.com is what we sell. Around $400, they are Mahindra red, heavy fiberglass on a metal frame. Very nice, but freight on just one would be real expensive. Much heavier than the Bare-Co units, and they match the tractor.

Weldingisfun,
I am glad I bought the aluminum. It is tough enough to take abuse from small limbs and the angles make great places to install lights and stuff.

I think you'll find the Perry Canopies are made for them by Wells Ag Company in Elm Mott, TX (just north of Waco). When I bought the 1999 B2710 Kubota, my Kubota dealer gave me my choice of unpainted diamond plate aluminum or steel painted to match the tractor (I took the latter) at the same price and cheaper than Kubota's plastic or fiberglass. I loved the one I had and I mounted two tiltmeters, front and rear work lights, a toggle switch for the lights, and a rear view mirror on mine. You can see an old picture of it here. I did replace that round rear view mirror with a much better 4" x 6" rectangular one.

Bird,
Thanks for the mirror idea. I will put one on the Big RED Beast.

Bird,
I think I will install a tiltmeter also. I love the way your barn wall was 2x4'd. It is stiffer and makes more shelf space.

I'd also take a look at Femco Tuff Tops. I've bought three of them. Two tractors and a ztr. They come in two sizes.
After being mounted they can be easily removed.
Rural King is the cheapest source I found and they ship free.
