For the most part just forget it, when a dealer which has been in business for a long time tells me about a fan I'll believe him before folks on a forum, and he specifically was talking about my series of tractor

So why are you on here asking questions if you don’t want to listen to the answers because your dealer is smarter than everyone else? Have you thought about the fact that your tractor was perfectly able to stay cool when new with cooling equipment it came with from the factory? If it had needed an electric fan Kubota would have installed one. You need to get over the fact that you are certain everything is clean and go back and clean everything well using a coil cleaner and possibly pulling the radiator and take it to a radiator shop and having the inside professionally cleaned out. Also, do a serious flush of the blocks coolant passages.

kinda confused as to whether the tractor's engine is overheating OR it's the A/C that's not cool enough.

How would you control the electric fan? Key on, compressor clutch volts, pressure sensor? Most autos use a Pd sensor to activate an electric fan relay. How many amps will the fan draw; will the electrical system support the fan and everything else?

Figuring out how to do it is easy, I was just wondering if anyone here had done it so as to not reinvent if not needed. I'll connect a relay to the AC so it will energize when the AC is turned on

I've added electric condenser fans more than once. My suggestion is this. Place the biggest fan you can fit in front of the condenser forcing air towards the radiator. Just wire it up with jumper leads directly to the battery for openers. Try it out when you work the tractor on the next hot day and see what difference it makes. Try it for a while then turn it off and try it. Then decide if it's worth the effort. My guess is you will keep it.

Easy enough to install a temporary switch between AC and relay for testing

I've got it from here, thanks
