Tractor Monitor Mounting Tree

Tractor Monitor Mounting Tree TRACTORS Cabs 34-4-34 When Wes Suddarth needed to mount a Trimble EZ Guide 500 lightbar guidance system on his Deere 7520 tractor, there was no convenient place to mount the monitor. The problem was compounded when he tried to find a place to mount a Raven Sprayer Controller and also a foamer controller. So the Lebanon, Tenn., farmer designed a patent pending mounting tree that easily holds 3 or more monitors in one location, and is easy to see and operate from the tractor seat. The monitor mounting tree bolts to the right front post of the cab on Deere 6000, 7000, and 8000 tractors. An adapter bracket can be used to fit other tractor models and makes. To install, you simply drill holes on the cab post. The mounting tree comes with a convenient connector at the bottom that lets you bring power to the mounting tree from the tractor's battery. Then you can connect any monitor power cord directly to the mounting tree, without having to run a power cord all the way to the battery for each monitor you install. The mounting tree, which comes with 2 shelves and the power connector, sells for $325 plus tax (where applicable) and S&H. Additional shelves sell for $45 apiece. The adaptor bracket sells for $25 plus S&H. Contact: FARM SHOW Followup, Wes Suddarth, 2760 Cedar Grove Rd., Lebanon, Tenn. 37087 (ph 615 513-3494; www.agtractormonitormount.com).
