I don't have a photo- but I placed mine on my 3320 on the top of the brush guard using a hose clamp. Easy install, doesn't clutter, or block any view and is right in front of me and easy to see.

Not sure what the 4520 sheet metal looks like. I mounted mine on my 950 on the cowling just behind and above my instrument cluster using the double sided adhesive tape that came with it. Easy to see just above my steering wheel. Park on a flat level surface and just stick it on.

BB_TX,not much sheet metal on the 4520's all plastic.But that would have been a good location.

anojones,my brush guard sits down below my hood so i wouldn't be able to see the meter.

I thought about placing it on my front loader attachment arm by the loader control lever,it stays stationary when using the loader.I'll think of something.

Thanks Mike

I placed mine out on the hood a little ways so it is always in my field of view and I don't have to really turn my head and look at it(or look down at it) while facing forward.

My 3520 was delivered Monday & I was looking at possible places to mount the tilt meter. I think I'll try your idea of mounting it on the brush guard with a hose clamp and see how I like it. Thanks for the tip.

Mike C:

I attached a West Marine Lev-O-Gage Clinometer to the upright mounting post of my FEL. It is verticle and does not move. The clinometer cost ~$12.00. I will try to attach a picture. Jay

Attached is a photo of where I installed mine on my MF 1260.
