Yanmar YM173

Last Updated: June 2024

Overview

The Yanmar YM173 is a compact utility tractor that matches well with small scale agricultural tasks and grounds maintenance. It features a 12.8 horsepower Yanmar diesel engine, which is liquid-cooled and supported by a 6-speed gear transmission to ensure a range of operating speeds. With a chassis characterized by 4x2 2WD and manual steering, this tractor is tailored to operations where complex four-wheel drive systems are unnecessary. Given the compact dimensions and relatively lightweight of 1345 lbs, it serves smaller properties or areas with limited space efficiently. Its simplicity and functionality define the YM173, presenting a potential workhorse for those with modest farming or landscaping needs.
