Tiller Time! Yanmar SA 324 and HawkLine Tiller. Maintenance, Slipping Clutch and Tilling.
Before doing spring tilling we need to do some maintenance on our 3PT HawkLine tiller. We check gear oil, grease the side bearing, lubricate the PTO shaft, slip and adjust the slip clutch. We also get in the garden and put the tiller to work.

Yanmar SA 324 Mowing with the Mid-Mount Mower (Does it Make the Cut?)
มุมมอง 16K2 ปีที่แล้ว
Mowing with the Yanmar SA324 sub compact tractor and the M60F Fabricated mid-mount mower deck. We take a look at the SA 324 in action mowing. We also look at the cut quality of the mower deck.
Yanmar SA 324 Quick Attach Bucket plus YL210 Loader Removal and Install
มุมมอง 11K2 ปีที่แล้ว
The Yanmar SA series of tractors use a proprietary quick attach loader bucket. In this video we are going to remove and install the quick attach bucket and take a look at the quick attach design. We also go through the removal and install of the YL210 front end loader(FEL). This loader is used on the SA324 and SA424. Their little brother the SA221 uses the YL110 loader but the general design of...
Will It Cut? We take a closer look at the mid-mount mower on the Yanmar SA324.
มุมมอง 28K2 ปีที่แล้ว
The Yanmar M60F mid-mount mower deck turns your SA324/424 into a mowing machine, further increasing the capability of the tractor. The fabricated mower deck is well constructed and uses cast iron spindles. We look at installation, adjustment and removal. We also look at a feature on the current SA series of tractors that can save you money and down time.
Why We Chose the Yanmar SA 324 (did we make the right choice?)

    I really really appreciate your video. I have bought a used Yanmar SA424, decided to add mid deck mower. I bought a used mower, it came with no instructions. There were lots of links and attachments to be attached under the tractor. I had hard time adding links and attachments, thanks to your video I was able to pickup bits and pieces. I have installed installed the mower successfully. The local dealer and Yanmar corporate were no help providing any information. The nearest dealer is 80 miles away, I was thinking about loading up the tractor and drive to the dealer. Thank God I didn't have to drive 80 miles again. Thanks again.

      The R4 tires do not tear up the lawn, but if I were to buy again I think I would consider turf tires. The R4s are not good when plowing snow, I think turf tires would have been a better all around choice for us.

    You have a nice place out there. I am considering a sub , or compact for finish mowing. My Yanmar 2020D has been reliable, but has ag tires and no mid pto. It sinks in the clay we have here, most of the year. I see a new generation of tires out there. Just wondering how well your rig floats. It looks like firm ground compared to what is here, unless we go into drought , in which case it may as well be concrete! Coyotes almost wiped out the ground hogs in these parts. Thanks Chris

    Nice video. I have owned my SA324 almost two years, it's been great. For those folks concerned about the hydro locations it's been a non-issue for me. One thing that did occur was the braking sensor/switch. Couldn't leave the seat without the engine cutting out. Simple fix: the switch 'plunger' was hitting the metal enclosure so it was as if the brake was not engaged. It's located on underside of the platform near the pedals. Long screwdriver was used to push the metal tab, fixed it. I looked at similar tractors but the ten yr warranty and close dealer sold me. Small things like arm rests are standard. Simple tractor, nice price.

    I had a SA424 for 18 months , was not a fan of the 2 range hydro the high is too high except for Highway and the low is not low enough I could get it in a bind and it would not spin a wheel or go , the hydro had lots of whine and coming from a geared tractor I did not like having to rev the engine way up to make it more responsive. Pushing dirt was a unenjoyable chore. The loader and the backhoe were impressively strong but as I said the lack of a true low gear was the main deal breaker I traded on a L2501 Kubota manual transmission and love it . I just prefer a lower rpm machine with no hydro whine and it pushes like a little tank it has a much more massive rear end too. The Yanmar is probably well built and has a long warranty but it is a much lighter duty tractor too much so for me.

Of course it has a more massive rear end…🤦‍♂️. If your tasks don’t require constant change of speeds or direction, of course a gear drive is better than a hydrostatic drive. The problem is, the original tractor you purchased did not fit your needs and the larger tractor you traded for did. Congratulations, but that doesn’t mean there was a problem with the Yanmar, just a problem with the idiot owner

    One thing I noticed is they don't work as a bulldozer using the loader. I had a fern that wouldn't budge. A fern! The roots were strong. So a tractor is great but sometimes you need a bulldozer. These are only 25 hp.

    • @storemannc
      @storemannc ปีที่แล้ว

      The horse power is not the problem 25 is plenty , the problem is getting the power to the ground and weight . If your wheels are spinning you need more weight , but if it won’t push and the wheels don’t spin then you are in too high of a gear.

      I did not have a need for the larger tires or additional ground clearance. I knew the 324 would do everything I needed and still fit in the budget. The 324 also offers more clearance in the fenders if I ever add tire chains.

    • @gsibertjr
      @gsibertjr ปีที่แล้ว

      the 324 has more pulling power than the 424 due to tire size. the 424 will have a higher top end speed but the smaller 324 tires will give more torque.

    • @storemannc
      @storemannc ปีที่แล้ว

      I traded my 424 but if I was hell bent on a Yanmar it would be the 324 because of the lower gear ratio due to the tire size. You want a tractor to pull and push bottom line If you mainly just use it for a wheelbarrow it does not matter.

That's great if you want to be locked into this brand to supply all your front implements, or if all you will ever use is the bucket - otherwise it's as crazy as selling a tractor with a non-standard proprietary 3pt hitch.
