Got the solar panels mounted and wired back to the charge controller. They are mounted so that their angle is easily adjusted. All that’s left is to pick up a deep cycle battery.
Picked up a propane fire table Sunday.

Solar setup is officially done. Added a deep cycle battery to the system and everything is working fine. I’ll probably pick up an inverter to run tools and my battery maintainer for the Kubota and Cubs.

Got an inverter hooked up today so now I have 110V power. Started on adding a paver patio to the porch but rain moved in and halted progress.

How much angle adjusting do you do on the solar cells? Once you find the 'right spot' do you leave it there? Summer sun vs. Winter sun angle differ by how much? TIA, Steve

For now, they’re set at 40* from horizontal. This site explains the specifics of panel tilt settings.

Thanks. The solar should provide enough power for what I need. If not, I have a generator if I need it for higher demands.
I finished laying the pavers for the patio today.

You’re welcome Steve and thank you. Yesterday, I adjusted the panels to 16* as recommended on that site.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
