Cover for mini excavator

[Brankor]

Hi All
I just purchased a used Kubota U27-4 Mini Excavator and looking for a custom cover to cover the controls, seat and possible the whole canopy to protect from the crazy weather ... Thanks in advance-

Really you’re gonna be offended because somebody use capital letters in a written message. I can think of a lot more reasons to be offended then capital letters.

Standards make civilization. Lack of standards makes anarchy.

Look around - society is falling apart, and people with your attitude are part of the problem.

Some folks are offended by sentences in capital letters?
Why is that?

It's generally poor form to write in all caps. Not sure I'd complain about it though, potentially the poster isn't particularly IT competent, or has another issue.

The all capitals thing is non issue for me.
There are spelling, punctuation, and sentence structure issues.
Seemingly, a general lack of education.

I would suggest getting something like this.

12 ft. x 20 ft. Truck/SUV Portable Garage

There are plenty of options around $500. I would not buy a harbor freight or no brand version. Get a heavy duty one with UV protection and a decent warranty on the tarp. I bought a no name one and the tarp did not last very long.

You may need to put this on a wall of some type to get some extra height or dig out some dirt to make the middle where the machine will sit a little lower. An excavator might tear a tarp up if you are not careful but putting a heavy duty plastic tarp on the ground to keep moisture away is a good idea.

I have one like that and I just left the end tarp off to get the required height for my cabbed tractor.

If you have free time and free pallets you can build a cheap floor to keep your tracks above the ground.

First off congrats on your new machine.

Do you know of anyone that gets pallets of wood pellets? The plastic wrap used to cover the pellets (at least the ones that I get) make for a very nice cover. They are sealed on 4 sides and the "roof". I have a couple set aside for that very reason (and to cover my straw bales as well). One of those would easily drape over your rops/fops and cover the seat/controls as well.

My mini sits under a roof. But I keep the pellet covers nearby so I can easily cover the cab when the birds start nesting in the rafters.

Maybe one of those companies that make custom boat covers/canopy's could custom make something?

Ain't gonna be cheap, but I'm sure they could do it.
