Do you have a ballast box? Maybe you could configure something on the back of the that and then use the 3PH to lift the chair up and hold it. Kind of like a wheelchair i-Match!

Good idea Loogie,
I have been so focused on the FEL that I forgot the tractor has two ends. I do have ballast box and something like you mention would be easy enough. And if I can keep it a simple addition, then I could make one of "it" for each implement...plows, mower, etc. so no matter which one I happen to have hooked up at the time, I can take the chair too. And since I use the FEL to open and close gates, that would keep the chair from getting tangled up in the gate.

I think your on the right path with the three point. Maybe a mount on the ROPS would work also.

Thanks Mayor,
Got any particular idea in mind using the ROPS?

snoiger01, my knees are in bad shape (arthritis) and at times, I have trouble getting up onto the tractor and I complain under my breath about it. However, after reading about your courage in the face of adversity, I think I'll quit complaining. I can't imagine going through what you must have endured. Like Kenny said, you are truly an inspiration. God bless you.

Thanks Gary,
God has already blessed me in more ways than I deserve. I was hit by a car when I was 7 yrs old, which actually made it easier to adjust. I'm 38 now and even to do this day, I can look around and see someone in much worse shape than me. And as ironic as this may sound, I can't even begin to imagine living with the pain of arthritis. Guess thats the good thing about being paralyzed from the chest down....sorta limits the amount of aches and pains you get

This is a sweet tactor. It ran all day and used 4 gals of fuel. Moved 5 ton of rock, put in a trench, put 40 yards of mulch down, and cut/stripe 1 1/2 acres of lawn. Now that was just Sat. Sun I chased a little white ball around in the sunshine. What a time saver. Last year it took two days (16 hours) just to move the mulch. Well I guess it paid for it's self for the next two months. Still waiting for some topsoil and fill so I can move my storage shed. Having problems getting the tractor in and out do to some trees. What did you guys do this weekend??? Oh I almost forgot. The only thing that is sore is my joystick arm!!!!!

Worked on moving my shed to another location in the yard. This little tractor makes quick work of this project. The stone is on order and then I will pack it down by driving on the area with the tractor/weight box/full bucket. The soil has a lot of clay in it. Will also add 5 in of 2B stone to the top. The shed will be on the left side. The area is 16x20. The shed is 12x14. This gives me a nice little driveway area. Do you think I need compactor?
