I knew when I bought it that I would have to cut a semicircle out of the cross brace at the rear because my Sears Revolution Tractor has the gas tank filler cap beneath the seat. This, the snow blower & bumper I had to adapt for this Tractor -- too bad they had to design this one differently than all the rest.
Sun Shade was easy to attach and does a good job of providing protection from the sun. The only thing is you must be very careful around trees and shrubs, the slightest snag will damage the shade.
This is perfect for anyone that needs to spend more than 10 minutes mowing, and who doesn't like sunburns!
This assembles fairly simply and does a great job - keep the sun off of you so you don't get burned! Thank you Sears!
After getting sunburned and seeing this sun shade on my neighbor's tractor, I decided to purchase one. Easy installation, and as one review said, it was pretty solid. However, as another review mentioned, it is noisy. As it sways back and forth it squeeks, very irritating. I did notice the neighbor had wrapped the uprights with a bunch of bungie cords.

It makes allot of noise when your riding.
I love the fact that I have a shade for my rider, especially for Louisiana; however, this shade was not designed very well. I kept having to put the canvas back on the frame as it was constantly slipping off. Finally, the inevitable happened: the canvas slipped off the front of the sunshade frame, fell off the back of the frame, dragged on the ground and was run over by the mower and caught in the blades. Thankfully, it did not damage the blades/deck! It was replaced by Sears w/o any problem, but I bought some velcro to apply to the front flap of the shade so that it will (hopefully!) stay...
