YANMAR FX215 ENGINE

The Yanmar FX215 features a 1.4L three-cylinder diesel engine, providing a balance of compact size and robust power output, ideal for small to medium agricultural tasks. Its 6.6-gallon (25.0L) fuel tank offers adequate range for extended operations, but careful management is necessary to optimize efficiency. Consider potential challenges with maintenance due to the smaller engine size, which may require more frequent servicing compared to larger models, especially in demanding conditions.

TRANSMISSION

The Yanmar FX215 features a partial power shift transmission, providing 9 forward and 3 reverse gears across three ranges, enhancing operational flexibility for varying tasks. This setup allows for seamless gear changes under load, ideal for both transport and field applications, though it may require operator familiarity for efficient shifting. A potential challenge is mastering the range switching, which could impact productivity if not executed smoothly.

Description Three gears, plus reverse, in three ranges.

MECHANICAL

The Yanmar FX215 showcases a versatile 4x2 or 4x4 drivetrain, allowing for operational flexibility in various terrains. The open operator station enhances visibility and comfort but may expose the operator to weather conditions. With a 9-speed partial power shift transmission, it allows for efficient power management and smooth speed transitions, making it suitable for both agricultural and landscaping tasks.

YANMAR FX215 TIRES

The Yanmar FX215 tractor features both 2WD and 4WD configurations, with standard agricultural tires designed for optimal traction and stability. The 4WD model, equipped with larger front tires (6-14), offers enhanced maneuverability and reduced slippage on uneven terrain, making it ideal for diverse farming applications. Conversely, the 2WD version provides a more straightforward, cost-effective solution for flat, stable fields, though it may be less effective in challenging conditions.
