TRANSMISSION
The Yanmar AF-170 is equipped with a shuttle transmission, allowing for seamless directional changes, which is advantageous for operations requiring frequent forward-reverse shifts, such as loading and unloading tasks. Its 8 forward and reverse gears provide versatility and adaptability across various work scenarios, enabling efficient speed and torque adjustments based on load requirements. However, the complexity of a shuttle transmission may require additional maintenance and operator training to ensure optimal performance.

MECHANICAL
The Yanmar AF-170 features a 4x4 MFWD system, providing enhanced traction and stability on varied terrains. Its 8-speed shuttle transmission allows for quick shifting between forward and reverse, improving operational efficiency, particularly in tasks requiring frequent directional changes. However, the two-post ROPS may offer limited overhead protection compared to a fully enclosed cab, which may be a consideration for safety in certain working environments.

YANMAR AF-170 TIRES
The Yanmar AF-170 equipped with standard agricultural tires (6-12 front, 8.3-20 rear) offers optimized traction and stability for light-duty farming tasks on uneven terrain. The tire sizes facilitate good maneuverability, but could pose challenges in deep mud or soft soil, leading to potential bogging. Consider a wider tire option or tire treads designed for specific applications if operating in challenging conditions for enhanced performance.
