I had a buggy top umbrella on my MF-180. It had brackets to mount on the fenders. I think I got it from Tractor Supply store. It made a world of difference in the comfort on a hot sunny day.

Thanks ksfarmer. I will definitely look into that!

You can buy either a buggy type canopy or you can put on an umbrella type like what you see on road construction equipment. The cost isn't too high, and they can either be mounted on the fenders or on a post mounted to the seat back or top link bracket behind it.

If you are talking about a ROPS canopy, there are a few welding shops around that will make them up for older tractors, but the problem is liability. Most of them won't even think about doing it because of the costs of insurance and testing that has to be done to get one certified. If you can find out if MF has one from a later model that will fit your tractor, then you might look around for a tractor that is in a junkyard. Most of them are U bolted to the rear axle housing. My biggest problems with the ROPS canopy is that most models will not allow me to stand while operating the tractor (I know, not the safest position to be in when it is running, but there are times my legs will start to cramp up and I've got to stand, and there are other ones when I want to see ahead or down that I can't when I am sitting down), and the other one is that you have a hard time operating the tractor under low tree branches.

Like KSFarmer said, you ought to be able to find one at almost any farm supply store or implement dealer.
