Ive seen enough car fires over the years.I would not keep a tractor or car/pickup in an attached garage.Cars burn fast, were often completly involved by the time we got there with the fire truck.You would be better off to build a small shelter for the tractor.I put 4 treated 4x6 in the ground to build a shelter for my band saw mill power head for 200 bucks.I sawed about half the lumber used to build it.The insulator on the solenoid where the battery cable connects is one thing that should be checked.I found mine in poor condition when I split the tractor for a new clutch .If you insist on keeping the tractor in a building disconnect the ground cable.Dont use battery chargers or maintainers.A good battery can go 3 months with out losing much of its charge.Some battery dis connects are junk.If you use one buy it from a marine supply.You can build a 12x12 building with just 4 treated posts.
