YANMAR YM187 ENGINE
The Yanmar YM187 features a compact 0.9L 3-cylinder diesel engine, known for its fuel efficiency and reliability in tight agricultural settings. One potential advantage is its size, providing excellent maneuverability in confined areas, although it may limit horsepower for heavy-duty operations compared to larger tractors. Ideal for small-scale farms or garden applications, it effectively balances power and economy, making it suitable for tasks like tilling and hauling light loads.

TRANSMISSION
The Yanmar YM187 features a partial power shift transmission with 9 forward and 3 reverse gears, allowing for smooth transitions and optimized performance in various conditions. The three ranges (1-3) provide versatility for different tasks, making it suitable for both heavy-duty farming and lighter agricultural tasks. However, the limited gear range may pose challenges in steep terrains or faster operations, necessitating careful gear selection to maintain efficiency.

MECHANICAL
The Yanmar YM187 features a 4x4 MFWD system, ensuring enhanced traction and stability, particularly in challenging terrains. Its 9-speed partial power shift transmission allows for efficient speed adjustments, beneficial for varied agricultural tasks, though manual steering may require additional operator effort. The two-post ROPS offers basic rollover protection, but operators should consider a fully enclosed cab for improved safety and comfort in adverse weather conditions.
