I put a 5#er behind the right step this fall and I already got to use it ! I was working with my tree guys and they brought their Toro Dingo to haul brush. a bunch of dry leaves got packed under it and caught fire. They were trying to stomp it out but the fire was gaining on them and was pretty close to setting the rubber tracks and hoses on fire. They were mighty glad I was there to snuff it out . They have since add extinguishers to their chippers and the Dingo !

I've been thinking about where a good spot would be to mount an extinguisher on the tractor.
When I first got my shop that was one of the very first things I got for it, mounted it beside the door since I figured I would naturally want to go there in the event of a fire.

I mounted mine on the rops upright using some large zip ties to mount the oem extinguisher bracket.
worked great.. use it on both my rops equipped tractors.

If anyone has mounted one in a cab tractor, I'd love to get some suggestions.
