Tractor Umbrella

[BlueBit]

Just got this last week and installed it today. Less than an hour including scratching my head time. The Texas sun is brutal. Adjustable in all directions. Pull a pin to remove the umbrella. Luckily I have 1/2 to spare getting into my garage. I put the mount on upside down to get an extra few inches of clearance. Clearance above the ROPS came out to 3 1/2 the way I mounted it. Mounted on Workmaster 33.

Very nice. I also like the basket you mounted on the ROPS.

Nice. Is that made for tractors or did you modify? Have a link?

It’s from All States Ag Parts. They have two mounting frames that use two different methods. If you have a ROPS, the price is around $120 give or take. No mods needed and install couldn’t be easier. They have colors for all major tractor manufacturers, also white if that appeals. You can also buy replacement canvas canopies if in a few years yours shows damage. Be careful to order the frame style for your application. The other frame style is for legacy tractors without ROPS, but the canvas umbrella is identical. Both made specifically for tractors. Hope I answered your question.

The basket I got thru Amazon: Great Day TT400 Tractor Tool Tray.

Thank you. Sun is hot here in Georgia, too.

I put the same blue one on my tractor a couple weeks ago. I'm in S. Illinois and tired of baking my brain while mowing the fields. It does help a lot!

The only thing that worries me with the new tractors is all the electronics exposed to the weather, for that reason alone I'd get a cab, but if you keep it under a roof than no worries as they say in Oz

Thanks BlueBit, I just ordered one for myself.

Glad you posted a picture. That sure does look better than the old umbrella style I had on the old Oliver when I was cutting and baling hay. Of course, back then, that old umbrella sure beat having no protection from the sun.:laughing:

That looks slick. Mine came with a fiberglass canopy, which I really like on hot summer days. It's too heavy/bulky to take off alone though, so something like that would be great.
