OK fella's I may have some good new's for you M-120 owners. I'm not sure how everything is situated in front of the radiator on the M-120's but on my M-9000 there's a lot of stuff cramed in there. The battery was only 2 inches in front of the hydraulic oil cooler, the condensor 2 inches behind that, and the radiator 2 inches behind that. The hyd oil cooler and the condensor are positioned at the lower half of the radiator therefore the battery was blocking any air flow from being able to pass through the lower part of that whole compartment. Also the screened area in the hood is all up high at the upper half of the radiator leaving no way for air flow to swoop down low and go through the hyd. cooler and condensor.Here's what I did,I relocated the battery out from in front of the cooler's, that opened up that whole area. Then I mounted a 12 inch electric fan that has a capacity of 2350 CFM's,down low directly in front of the hyd oil cooler.I also made a shroud out of a plastic bucket to direct all the air from the fan right through those two bottom coolers. Fella's that solved my problem. It's like a completly different tractor. The last several days it,s been in the high 80's and lower 90's and very humid. The cab has been very comfortable out in the hay field the whole time.Even when the tractor sits and idle's for a long time the cab is very cool when you jump back inside. Hope this helps you fella's out, I know it works!
