Yanmar YM180

The Yanmar YM180 is a versatile tractor that is available in both 2WD and 4WD variants. This compact tractor is powered by a Yanmar 3T72HA-N three-cylinder diesel engine, with a displacement of 53.6 cubic inches, providing a power output of 18 horsepower at 2600 RPM. It has a liquid-cooling system to manage engine temperatures, ensuring reliable performance even under challenging conditions. The YM180 uses a gear transmission with 8 forward gears and 2 reverse gears, complemented by a dry disc clutch. Stability and traction are handled with standard agricultural tires, with options for larger turf tires for lawn care applications. For 2WD models, the operating weight is 1436 pounds, while the 4WD models are slightly heavier at 1533 pounds. This tractor's size, with a length of 106.5 inches and width of 50 inches, makes it suitable for maneuvering through small spaces and capable of a variety of tasks. It is equipped with a Category I hitch at the rear for implements, and the operator's station features a ROPS for added safety. The YM180 is kicked to life with an electric starter. Its absence of a factory-equipped cabin suggests that it is best suited for use in mild conditions or for operators comfortable with exposure to the elements.
