Air precleaner on M9000

[40Kchicks]

Finally my first question,
I just got my new M9000 for the ranch. I am using it to help clean out 35K sq feet of chicken barn that are really dusty dirty. I wear a filter but I'm concerned about clogging my outer air filter on the tractor. I think it might help to put a precleaner on the tractor but what kind and where would I put it? Any ideas? Has someone done this?

We lived in the Northwest during the St. Helens explosion and saw many pre-cleaner applications. The most common was panty hose over the intake. Seriously, you might consider this if there is room and there is no chance of fire. Just one layer across the air intake should help to keeo a lot of the dirt out.
You'll have to ask around for the brand to buy!

Thanks Bob99
My research continues. This website had some good information. The tractor is a low profile orchard style so finding room to put it might not be posible. I'll buy outer filters on every clean out before I cut a hole in my new tractors hood.
