The 2515H I bought 18 months ago has been an absolute delight to own and operate. The chassis is absolutely massive and this tractor has immense capacity. Thank you for the great review. My biggest issue is with the key placement, right where your right knee will regularly compete for space resulting in constant bent key. That needs to be moved to a topside or other non-interference place. In fact, any button down there gets accidentally activated. PTO, hazards, turn signals, you name it. All should be in a upper housing protected from accidental touch.
I bought a Branson 2515H 13 months ago. What you should show is a slow race between the H & R model. I was set to buy the R model with a rototiller and the dealer had me do a slow race as if tilling. The R model wouldn’t work as well in that case. However pulling my old pull offset disc the R model would be better. I’m very happy with my H model and the ability to just crawl slow box blading next to a fence line or tilling or loading a pallet of material on my truck. I opted to have rear remotes and hydraulic top link along with AG tires. I’m wonder what the weight and cost is of of one of those concrete three point weights? I off loaded a pallet of bulk potting soil yesterday ( 75CF) and the tractor was light in the rear even with rimguard and my old box scraper on the back. Going up a slight slope I had to use 4wd as the rear tires started to spin. Love the weight of the tractor. My prior tractor was a Yanmar 2610D (4wd) select shift. 30 hp 27 @pto. While I had more power it was lighter and didn’t have the traction ( pulling the offset disc) as the 2515h. I do notice if discing a slight uphill or downhill there is a difference in performance. I use the cruise control quite a bit. Very satisfied with my tractor, rototiller and pallet forks I use a lot more than I thought I would. Go do a slow race 😂
i got a 2022 t494 least amt of computers and sensors and no turbo, kukje has a fantastic reputation.w loaded tires im close to 7000lbs you should borrow one of them there KU-BOATERS like the grand L and show how it cant put a 2000lb pallet in a pickup then do it with a t494 at 18k less $$$
Excellent video. Does the 2515h have a pto cover that lifts alao does it have a rear control for raising and lowering the hitch? Thank you! I love this tractor and probably will be giving you a call soon. I live an hour away from louden.
Really appreciate the video man. I've been looking at tractors and before the acquisition, was looking hard at a Branson 4815 or a TYM T474. Could you do a video comparing those two? I really liked the Hydro vs Shuttle top speed.. i have to road my tractor sometimes and 5mph is a big difference.
@@MarshallMims mine fell apart. The frame twists when you have bucket inthe air and pops the hood open. Tractor isn’t a real tractor if the FRAME flexes. I’ve had 3 tractors also has a Koti which is way better than a TYM but lifting capabilities suck. Oh yea I also busted the front steering knuckle off, got a stick James up the bottom of radiator Shitty underbelly protection, no front grill protection. I can go on and on what a POS TYM is. Real tractors use the engine and transmission for a FRAME. Don’t know how they build the bigger tractors but the compact tractor is junk.
It really isn't that terrible. If that's the only thing keeping you from getting one, it's really a mute point as the other features far out way anything else on the market.
Like others said it isn’t a show stopper. After a year of use on my Branson 2515H I don’t even think about it or wish the control was on the fender. Probably a lot easier to remove the loader if you want the way it is.
I hate that tractor manufacturers dont give accurate lifting capacities. What good is knowing how much it can lift "at the pins" if you dont lift at the pins? Its like a car company telling you the MPG based on the car being in Neutral rolling down hill.. It should be what the tractor can lift in the bucket. Which is typically 25-30% less than what the "at the pins" rating is. So if this tractor can lift 2200 pounds at the pins, after factoring in the weight of the bucket its self, it likely can only lift 1300-1500lbs.
Also when you have a Small model such as tym-254, 1 series Deer etc... the quick attach loader adds 75-100lbs to the loader.. so it reduces your capicity... If you are just doing simple loader work and never use any front attachments its a loss of capicity and Pin on Bucket is just fine.
the lift capacities are nonsense. in no universe can a 2500 lb tractor pick up 3300 lbs with the rear, or 2200 lbs with the FEL. once you go past about 50% of a tractor's curb weight, you are tipping over, period. you can put whatever size hydraulic cylinders, pumps, etc on a tractor, and it won't change a thing. curb weight is the real limiting factor for lift capacity.
The pins are the furthest forward reference point they can promise. They don't know that implement you will be using. For all they know you're going to put a 12ft boom on the front and then get mad when it cant lift even 400lbs at the tip.
@@Tenacious21 Nope, they can give you the rating at 15in past the pin. Which is where the load is in a bucket. This gives a much more accurate lift capacity for buyers.
@@brianfarrell5240 So what happens when you add counterweight on the back end of the tractor? I have used my massive brush hog and my 2515 can lift an overflow bucket of granite gravel, and that is with a Wicked Toothbar that considerably adds to the volume of the bucket, probably another 20%. I am well past 2200 pounds, easily. I did a ~90 tons of recycled asphalt on a 350' road to my garage. Hundreds of loads of granite. This tractor is a monster. You have never used it.
lol, that's an uninformed comment. Kabuta and the jolly green giant wish that was the case. The owner of TYM is Kukje Machinery. Founded in 1968 and is a subsidiary of a massive well-established Korean conglomerate. They likely will be here in 20 years. Kukje other customers include Cummins Diesel who they are in contract with to build and supply engines for them. Kukje manufactured/distributed some J Deere tractors since 1987. I have no issue with TYM and its parent company.
Great video. This is one of the best videos on TH-cam to explain this tractor model. Great job! I'd consider a TYM in the future! Tractor Hard! 🚜💪!

I want one of those concrete balance box!
We offer them in a few different weights!
Excellent rundown, thank!

Spot on about the competition
great video and info. THANK YOU !!!
Watch any kubota last 10x longer
1st time I have ever saw tractor drag race without pulling any thing.
Thanks for the video! Very informative. 👍
Thanks!
Great video
Thank you!
Thanks for the info. Great video
That's an apocalypse tractor. I'm itchy to get to my local dealer to work on getting one home.

5.37 is the lil race lol

Thank you! We will try to do that video for you in the upcoming months! Or at the very least a deep dive video explaining either of those models :)
@@SR1Equipment-1 thanks they seem very similar but it seems like the t474 is better equipped
Run from TYM !
@@rad1ist why exactly?

They should offer a cab with this model would make it the best
Thanks for the video! Does the 2515H has cruise control?
Mine does but only good on flat ground- been my experience
Will 10-16.5 tires fit on the front of the 2515h?
You could upgrade the 2515 to the 42 horsepower, one with a cam and and larger injectors. It can be done.
You can turn the fuel up on the injection pump with a flat screwdriver
How much?
@@dlawson8993 you can add like 5hp
Is there a cab available for the 2515?
5835 - can you show leg hitting the shifter when using the throttle?
Excellent video guys!! Best on the web!!
Any issues running “off road “ diesel ?
Do you take trade in's?
If they move the 2515's loader control to the fender, I'm in.
It really isn't that terrible. If that's the only thing keeping you from getting one, it's really a mute point as the other features far out way anything else on the market.
My loader controll is on the dash, not fender.. it works just fine for me.
Like others said it isn’t a show stopper. After a year of use on my Branson 2515H I don’t even think about it or wish the control was on the fender. Probably a lot easier to remove the loader if you want the way it is.
I've used both pretty regularly, honest to God don't get you people's strong opinion about that damn loader control lmao
How much for this model
Is this the biggest 25hp tractor available on the market?
No dpf/def. No electric over hydraulic.....Sold😂
100%
Did anyone count how many times he said "super"?
The 3620 will lift 2700 lbs for few thousand dollars more.

Never by these tractors, it's all about parts... Need a part 20 yrs from now 😂

I have an 85 kubota that I can't get a front hub for! But JD under 50 hp are junk now... This company builds more tractors worldwide then anyone...
Slow too plow.
LOVE MY 2515H BEAST OF A TRACTOR
You want to buy mine?
