TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW
The Yanmar F235 features a 9-speed gear transmission with an 18-speed creeper option, allowing for precise speed control and excellent torque management, which is particularly advantageous for fieldwork or tasks requiring fine adjustments. The dual transmission system enhances versatility, enabling operators to switch between high-speed travel and low-speed, high-torque applications seamlessly. One challenge may be the complexity of the gear system, potentially increasing maintenance requirements and operator training needs.

TRANSMISSION 1
The Yanmar F235 is equipped with a gear transmission featuring 9 forward and 3 reverse gears, allowing for versatile speed adjustments suited for various field operations or terrain conditions. The three ranges provide an advantage in tailoring power output and efficiency, making it suitable for tasks such as plowing, tilling, or transport. However, the complexity of shifting through multiple gears can pose a learning curve for operators new to gear-driven tractors.

MECHANICAL
The Yanmar F235 tractor features a versatile drivetrain with options for 2WD or 4WD, which allows for efficient operation in various field conditions, making it suitable for both flat terrains and uneven landscapes. The 9-speed gear transmission provides adequate speed control for general farming tasks, while the 18-speed creeper option enhances precision during low-speed operations such as tilling or planting. However, the open operator station may be less comfortable during prolonged use in adverse weather, presenting a trade-off between visibility and operator protection.

YANMAR F235 TIRES
The Yanmar F235 tractor is available in both 2WD and 4WD configurations, which significantly influences its traction and maneuverability. The 2WD model is equipped with standard agricultural tires (4.00-15 front and 9.5-24 rear), making it suitable for lighter applications and less challenging terrain. In contrast, the 4WD model, with larger front tires (7-14), enhances off-road capability and stability, making it ideal for diverse agricultural tasks and varied soil conditions but may entail higher maintenance costs.
