- TOO MANY, TOTAL OF 17 NOW: PRINCIPAL UNITS ARE JACOBSEN T422D & T528D & MANY JACOBSEN MORE MODELS & TORO GROUNDSMASTER 325D
Bought a $100.00 golf cart cloth / plastic cab cover from Northern Hyadraulic Tools - worked fine at keeping the wind and snow off. Had to wear the usual heavy clothing for warmth. But no biting wind of blowing snow to deal with.
.
Since replaced the cover with home made lexan side panels and door for about $250.00 and installed a heater core from the junk yard to bypass some returning engine coolant through the cab. Hooked the heater blower motor up to blow on the inside of the windscreen, Have to run the engine a little faster to get the necessary lift from the water pump.
.
But that cloth golf club enclosure was a swell quick first fix.

I purchased something like this from Femco.
FEMCO, Inc.
They might be available from Northern Tool also?
Femco Tractor Cab Weather Brake Rear Entry | Tractor + Mower Covers | Northern Tool + Equipment
The Femco skirt runs up along the side of the engine and the engine heat will make its way back into the driver痴 area. (Don稚 want to call it the cab).
I added Plexiglas to the ROPS so it blocks the snow from coming in the backside. I have mounted the control switches for the chute defector and rotator to the Plexiglas so I can adjust them while blowing snow.
Last year I had some clear vinyl between the windshield and the sunshade that was also helpful. Anything to keep the blowing snow from getting to me. Many times I was out there last year and was warm enough I took off my gloves and unzipped my coat.
I have used this for a few years now and it makes blowing snow much nicer.
