TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW
The Yanmar F255 features a 9-speed main transmission complemented by an 18-speed creeper gear, offering exceptional torque control and versatility for various agricultural tasks, particularly in tight spaces. This configuration enhances operational efficiency, allowing for slow, precise movements when needed—ideal for tasks like tilling or planting. However, operators must familiarize themselves with the gear ratios to maximize performance and prevent stalling under heavy load conditions.

MECHANICAL
The Yanmar F255 features a versatile 4x2 or 4x4 MFWD chassis, offering operators enhanced traction in diverse terrain, particularly beneficial for agriculture in varying soil conditions. Its 9-speed gear and optional 18-speed creeper transmission provide precise control for implementing tasks requiring different speed ranges, though the open operator station may lead to reduced comfort in adverse weather. Consideration should be given to the potential for increased maintenance with the MFWD system compared to simpler 2WD configurations in some scenarios.

YANMAR F255 TIRES
The Yanmar F255 tractor offers both 2WD and 4WD configurations, enabling versatility; 2WD can be more fuel-efficient for light tasks, while 4WD enhances traction and stability on uneven terrain. The standard ag tires (front: 5.00-15 for 2WD or 7-16 for 4WD; rear: 11.2-24) provide optimal grip and weight distribution conducive to various agricultural applications. However, 4WD may increase maintenance complexity and operating costs due to additional components like drive shafts and differentials.
