As the title says, my tractors batteries are being stolen 3 times. Any way to prevent it?

G'day Mate and welcome to TBN from Downunder.

WOW. Thinking about your problem (and not knowing how your tractor is being stored) one way, as a deterrent, would be to 'padlock' the grill guard. I don't know how but it would/may make it difficult to access the bonnet (hood) latch.

Enjoy the site from wherever in the world you are.

Welcome to the Forum! (y)

Apparently, you don't leave your tractor in a safe place. Perhaps take the battery with you when you leave.

We burry thieves and robbers around here. ;)

Add a quick disconnect for the battery, and take it with you.

I agree with Tinhack's statement - "We bury thieves and robbers around here". And Cat_drivers suggestion to use a Batteryshackle.

Actually - around these parts.......leave the dead bodies exposed for the coyotes to scavenge. Y'all know - it's all about being "Eco-friendly".

As others have said, a determined thief will not stop. Take the battery with you when you leave.

Welcome to TBN. ;)

given multiple thefts, my larger concern would be for your tractor at large, or even destructive mischief from a frustrated thief. i'd be looking at alternatives for your vulnerable tractor location. also keep a game cam trained on the area
best of luck, & welcome to the forum
