This year I decided to use the 190XT to spread manure with.  My problem is the manure I have is full of rocks......and it isn't pleasant getting hit in the back of the head with a smelly one....so I sacrificed the cab for my safety.  It took about 10 hits for me in 20 loads....a couple of them popped pretty good! No broken glass yet....

Eldon, sounds like a good idea for you!  I just feel sorry for the poor cows, (what-ever) made the manure for you, GOT to hurt, might want to watch the feed!  LOL

you wanna be careful even with the cab, Customer of ours brought in a 7710 Ford with the back window and the windshield smashed out from a baseball sized rock come off the beater of his manure spreader, and he had a tailgate set down to the manure to act as a battle shield. Few loads of manure is hardly worth a life!

Maybe the key word is YET... a "cheap" 4 X 8 sheet of plywood (on end) bolted to the front of spreader would keep a lot of those rocks from flying forward. that is, it might save your glass

It seems that some plywood with small holes in it might be cheap insurance for you and the glass...

I vote for some expanded metal on the back of the cab. It would protect that glass and you wouldn't give up any visibility.

Eldon is the rocks from cattle eating rocks in feed or from loading manure and the rocks mixing in while loading.Spread manure from 30 gurnsey's until I was 16 and never got hit by a rock.Plenty of crap, but no rocks.LOL Or is this just a Washington thing?
You only need to know 3 things to be a plumber;Crap rolls down hill,Hot is on the left and Don't bite your fingernails

The guy that gives me the manure feeds his cattle in a feedrack....the soil is naturally rocky and the cattle  loosen up the rocks and they get mixed in with the manure.  Since the cab on the 190 is kinda ratty anyway, I wasn't too concerned about a cracked window.   I don't run the spreader fast enough to fling the rocks too hard....it isn't as bad as a discbine......
