I'm looking to buy a compact utility tractor. I was wondering if any of the manufacturers cabs offered falling object protection? I'm in a heavily wooded area with plenty of dead trees. Are the roofs just a flimsy layer of fiberglass? Or are they steel-reinforced? I can't seem to find any answers on Google.

All the cabs I've seen aren't FOPS rated.

I'm as about newbie as they come, just took delivery of a Branson 3725C yesterday and never even considered what is protecting me overhead or rollover. In my research before buying, I thought some of the cabs were removable but was told they are integrated to the chassis and frame. I'll be keeping an eye on this post?

For units with Factory FOPS:
John Deere 110.
Kubota B20, B21, B26, L35, L39, L45, L47, 48, M559, M62.
Please do not double post the same question in two forums, its considered tactless.
