- We've had the TYM 494 tractor on the farm for a little over a month now, and I am over 20 hours on the meter. Let's see what I was able to get done on the pasture conversion, and how else it's been helping.

I just subscribed because I'm hoping to see more TYM videos and comments with reviews. I have total respect for you because you're not a paid sponsor of any equipment and you a real world genuine person. Thank you for your time and work filming. I'll be watching 👍
Just went to visit a friend who works at Central NH Trailer and Equipment. Told me about your page! My wife and i are starting a homestead/ farm too and I'm looking at this exact tractor. We're in the lakes region!
Good for you, bud! That cab and that massive snowblower are going to vastly improve your winter quality of life, as well!
Having tractor envy :)
Congratulations on the new TYM, I've dropped by a few times when you still had the 'Bota. Evolving biz sometimes involves larger equipment, the Kukje engine is a great engine. I have 410h on my T474 (Same eng, as your T494). Still haven't had a regen request since new, I run the engine above 1800 - 2400 (PTO Speed). So it does passive regen while working.
Glad you're liking the tractor.
you need a boxblade my friend. i have same machine with a woods boxblade if it is branded KIOTI it is the same boxblade if you catch a better deal.if you move a lot of logs i got a FRANSGARD 950 log grapple it looks like a frostbite but made with HARDOX 420 and better quality all around. about $2300 its made in Denmark. 3-$500 more but you will smile everytime you use it. buy once cry once. you made a fine choice in tractor quiet and smooth mech. fuel inj. no turbo or xtra computers or sensors.
That big red machine is capable for sure!
Love seeing your channel grow. Your commitment to providing quality content is very respectable. Best of luck on your journey!!
Are your tires filled? What are you using for ballast while carrying those logs?
Great video Jack. I love my TYM T474 and thinking about getting a T494 with cab next time. or bigger.
Have a nice weekend, I'm watching your video your video is great.❤
I was looking forward to a tractor update! I’m glad it’s working out well for you so far. I would definitely like a grapple, but with a 40+ year old tractor with a pin on bucket and 2 lever loader valve, it’s not happening. I use some cheap clamp on pallet forks as a “poor man’s grapple” and that makes a huge difference over just the bucket. Enjoy that fancy new machine!
Happy you got a T Y M now and all the tools
Oooh nice shiny tractor.
We just bought a 161 acre farm up here in Alberta, Canada. We have a New Holland Boomer tractor. Love it BUT will def have to upgrade to a bigger beast soon enough.
Good luck
HEY I WAS LOOKING TO BUY THE SAME MACHINE FOR OUR HOMESTEAD!!! How well would the loader dig/scrape the top 4” of dirt for road construction? Need to start in the beginning- with a driveway!
Do any of the 474-494-574 models have the self leveling front loader? Some 494 pictures show a self leveling arm..
HI, DID YOU GET A BUCKET WITH THE TRACTOR? WHERE IS THE LIST OF IMPLEMENTS YOU PURCHASED WITH THE TRACTOR? My wife and I love your channel keep up the good work.
I don’t think that tractor is ideal for what you need. It’s too big and comfy. Lucky for you, I have a 2020 BX I’m willingly to swap you for that cumbersome TYM tractor. LMK…
