Guys: Do any of you have a good recommendation for a brush rake for the H-3? I want to clean up some small brush 1" diameter is the biggest size. Also, what would be good to use on the radiator grill as a cover to keep the small brush out of the radiator.

I was thinking a heavy fine gauge wire mesh screen would be good. Any comments/ideas are appreciated!!!

Thanks much ....Orangeman :)

Working in brush you will need something heavier than screen, might look if you can find some grading screen from gravel crusher or some expanded metal plate of heavier thickness. Something like catwalk flooring . Also look at something to protect sides of engine compartment as brush ends up into tracks and into engine compartment and into operators area real fast before you can react.

Look at images on Google for examples for a brush rake in the front....It will become obvious how to build it....The main idea is to stop brush from rolling over the top of the blade...Mark
