YANMAR KE-170H ENGINE
The Yanmar Ke-170H tractor is powered by a robust 3-cylinder diesel engine, offering efficient fuel consumption ideal for small to medium agricultural tasks. With a 5.8-gallon (22.0L) fuel tank, it provides reasonable operational range; however, refueling may be required more frequently in intensive use scenarios. Its compact size and maneuverability make it suitable for narrow fields and gardening applications, though it may lack the power for larger farming operations.

TRANSMISSION
The Yanmar Ke-170H features a hydrostatic transmission, offering seamless control over speed and direction without gear shifting, which enhances ease of operation and reduces operator fatigue. Its infinite forward and reverse capabilities allow for precise maneuverability, making it ideal for tasks requiring frequent directional changes, such as landscaping or small-scale farming. However, while hydrostatic systems provide excellent responsiveness, they may require more maintenance due to fluid and component wear over time compared to mechanical transmissions.

MECHANICAL
The Yanmar Ke-170H features a 4x4 MFWD (Mechanical Front-Wheel Drive) system, providing enhanced traction and stability across varied terrain, making it ideal for both agricultural and landscaping applications. Its hydrostatic transmission allows for smooth, effortless speed adjustments without the need for clutching, facilitating ease of operation in tight spaces. However, users may need to consider potential hydrostatic transmission maintenance costs and the inherent lower efficiency at higher speeds compared to gear-driven alternatives.

YANMAR KE-170H TIRES
The Yanmar Ke-170H tractor is equipped with Ag front tires sized 5.00-12 and Ag rear tires sized 9.5-16, which provide enhanced traction and stability in diverse agricultural settings. The smaller front tire dimension allows for improved maneuverability in tight spaces, while the larger rear tires can enhance load-carrying capacity and traction on uneven terrain. However, the overall ground clearance may be limited due to the tire sizes, which could pose challenges in heavily rutted or muddy fields.

DIMENSIONS & TIRES
The Yanmar Ke-170H tractor's wheelbase of 58 inches provides excellent maneuverability in tight spaces, making it suitable for small to medium-sized farming operations and landscaping tasks. Weighing 1649 lbs, it balances stability with transportability, however, the lighter weight may result in less traction on loose or uneven terrain. The specified tire sizes, with wider rear tires, enhance load-bearing capacity, but may require careful consideration of soil compaction in sensitive agricultural environments.
