"I needed a small compact tractor to work in my yard, about 2 acres. This is a grey market Yanmar so it is tough to find parts for them - although if you really search you can find them, they just might be a bit more expensive than you would like. For instance I replaced all 4 tires on my tractor last year and had to have them special ordered - probably about a 10-15% premium. Not ridiculous considering I was able to get them locally and have them installed. I have a loader (800 lb capacity), Howse 4 ft scraper w/rippers, and a 4 ft tandem disk. I use all 3 attachments fairly regularly with the disk the least. I did reverse my rear tires to help widen the stance of this narrow tractor, but I do have issues with the disk and scraper hitting the tires when turning too sharp. The small tractor is nice to get into tight places - the 4WD makes it a real workhorse and it will sit and dig itself into a hole it has so much torque/power. My unit does have a PTO on it but I have not used it much. The previous owner did for mowing. It seems to work fine. The motor has been great - I can let this tractor sit for months and when I want to use it - amazingly it starts right up. No issues. My ground is flat as a board so no issues with slopes/rollover. The tractor does not have a ROPS on it."
"Yanmar F16D, with Allied Loader, 3pt hitch, Rankin 4ft mower. I use this for moving earth, manure, and mowing. When it works, it's a good tractor, but it was grey market, no ROPS. The wheel base is too narrow, and on hilly terrain (like mine) it's easy to tip over, which I did once - rolled totally over upside down. The problem is that when anything needs replacing - side link, seat, ignition, even a back tire, it's hard to find anyone to work on it, and even harder to find parts. It sat for over a year once while I tried to find a back tire to fit - had to order from China. Slightly underpowered on PTO. Planning to sell or trade soon for Kubota, Holland or Deere."
