I put the cowling back together and replaced the light. I got some expanded metal and had it cut to size for the front.
Branch broke cowling and light.

Darnit, hate that when that happens. Where'd the branch come from, was it clamp in the bucket? On mine a branch knocke of one of the side lenes few years ago, just snapped it back on with some clear caulking. I like how you just clamped the screen on so you can remove it if needed.
Of all the things to hit with limbs and branches, that fuel filter is what I feared the most, I boxed that in first thing, than my first trip in the woods I backed over I thought was a 2" dead sapling, put my foot on the brake and no brake, looked under the tractor and that so called dead sapling bent my brake rod, then I looked at all the hydraulic hoses and that scared me. So after one log brought out and before I went in the woods again, a skidplate went on, covers the hoses and hydraulic filter, nothing but add on's of this or that ever since.
