I've lost a couple of lenses on the upper flashers on my Kubota B2650HDSC. Mowing under trees and such they get rubbed on a lot.
Blowing snow after the recent storm, a lot of the trees next to the drive had branches weighed down with snow and I finally broke one plumb off. Ordered a new one from Messicks, but decided I'd better do something to protect them a little better as rubbing on branches is going to be an ongoing problem.
So:
A simple ring rolled out of 3/4 x 1/8 flat stock, with a tab welded on the bottom that the mounting post on the flasher assembly goes through. The light actually sits behind the ring (towards the front of the tractor) but I'm hoping it will deflect branches enough to protect the light.
Push comes to shove, I'll make a double ring type with a guard ring on both sides of the lenses.
