Came with my canopy when I got my MX5800.

Came with my canopy when I got my MX5800.

That's kind of what I'm looking to do. I've done a design and have all the materials, Just need to finish building the office out in the shop first before I fire up the plasma CNC to cut everything out.

I'll post pictures when done.

Looking to put a fan on the Tractor to help keep me cool and keep the bugs off me during bug season. Thinking of squeezing a small electric radiator fan that is rated at 800CFM to the underside of the canopy I am building that would blow straight down and maybe even 'twist' to the rear a little for when I'm using the backhoe.

Thoughts or suggestions?

What have you done?

This is a ROPS B2650.

Not worried about power as I have a new 35 amp alternator on the way.

I adapted a 12vdc bilge evacuation fan and a 90° elbow.

'small electric radiator fan'...hmm..better check the ACTUAL current is uses NOT what's on the box ! One I 'repurposed' drew 17 amps. Looked at the fuse panel of the truck it came out...fan relay had a 25 amp fuse.sigh, fan went to scrapyard.....
