TRANSMISSION

The Yanmar YM147 tractor features a two-speed power shift transmission with 6 forward and 3 reverse gears, allowing for versatile speed control suited for various agricultural tasks. The dry disc clutch provides durability and responsiveness but may require more maintenance compared to wet clutches in heavy-duty applications. This setup is ideal for operations that demand frequent speed adjustments, such as tilling or hauling, although it may present a challenge in extremely muddy conditions due to potential clutch slippage.

MECHANICAL

The Yanmar YM147 features a versatile 4x2 2WD or 4x4 MFWD configuration, allowing operators to efficiently switch between two and four-wheel drive depending on terrain conditions, enhancing traction and performance. Its mechanical shoe brakes provide reliable stopping power, though they may require more frequent maintenance compared to hydraulic systems. The open operator station combined with a two-post ROPS offers good visibility and safety, making it suitable for small to medium agricultural applications while ensuring operator comfort.

YANMAR YM147 TIRES

The Yanmar YM147 tractor offers versatile tire options, accommodating both agricultural and turf use, which allows for adaptability in various terrains and tasks. The 2WD setup with standard agricultural tires provides superior traction for fieldwork, while the 4WD setup enhances maneuverability and stability on uneven or slippery surfaces, though it may lead to increased wear and tear on turf due to soil compaction. When using turf tires, the larger rear size can improve flotation and reduce ground pressure, making it ideal for maintaining lawns but may limit its effectiveness for more intensive agricultural tasks.

2WD Standard tires (ag) Front: 6.9x9. Rear: 8.3x16
4WD Standard tires (ag) Front: 5x12. Rear: 8.3x16
