I have had it for a few weeks now. I broke the hazard light. I was mowing and I guess the bush i was next to broke it. I didn't hit anything. I mean anything I hit, also hit my body. A little disappointed that it broke so easy. it is all plastic. Off to get a new one.

My wife breaks two or three a year, need to put a guard on, but too much other stuff to do. Paul's fix should be somewhere on here: http://www.youtube.com/user/7863348/videos

Triple,
I was there too - Paul has so many great videos, it is hard to look through them all to see what you remembered seeing a while back!!!!!!!!!!

I too, looked for that video without success. Then I attempted to find the pics from the original thread. I found the thread, "they were framed", http://www.orangetractortalks.com/forums/showthread.php?t=10017&highlight=framed&page=6
but apparently Paul is no longer hosting them, nor is anyone else.

the metal guard around the light has a hole in it where the bolt passes through to connect to the original location on the ropes
take the light off put it on a block of wood trace it the outline around the block and then cut the wood out and use that as a template to bend a piece of metal around to match the shape of the light then drill a hole in it to make where the bolt will pass through and then bolt t it back on the bracket

You didn't by chance get the optional 'bush removal device' that extends past the front of the tractor did you? Guaranteed to solve the problem for good.
I do. But these bushes are huge. and not mine. besides without them, I would be able to see the neighbors house. I like not being able to see neighbors.You didn't by chance get the optional 'bush removal device' that extends past the front of the tractor did you? Guaranteed to solve the problem for good.
Take them all off! they are not needed. I broke all mine (why two on each side?) and then the wires short out. take them all off....
