Sooooo can it cut? You never showed any footage of that. 🤔

Super filmik 💪👍

Seems like a ton of work. Maybe just buy a dedicated mower?

Good video.

Super filmik 👍

I can't find a yanmar dealer within 250 miles of where I live in West Virginia. Why should I buy one without a dealer closer?

Didn’t see if in fact it would cut and how well…

Can you shoot a quick video of how this deck is lifted up? that would be very helpful. I called Yanmar America today, they told me that I need lift kit to make this mover go up and down. Thanks

I have the virtually identical unit made by Cub/Yanmar (sc2450). I often wondered if the mowing deck was drive-on. I’ve been rolling it in from the side and connecting it up. I’ll have to check for the fan shroud. Nice looking property! Regards from NY

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.

very helpful video. Thank you!!!!

Yeah we got one. Thanks for sharing.

looking at the 325 with turf tires. How are the R4s on your lawn. Would you go back get R4s instead?

You never showed it cutting.

I have one and it only has 59 hours and I've had nothing but issues with it I'm going to a 3 point finishing mower

nice solis

Thank you for the video. 👍

Will it cut?!

How fast can you mow? Do you have to use low range? Do the tires tear up your lawn? I assume the throttle should be set at pto rpm?

Does your Yanmar smoke very much on cold start up?

Looks nice also the best first words about letting it warm up 👌 proud of ya bud

Does the 3pt hav downward pressure? Sorry for all the questions i am thinking of yanmar

Oh you answered my questions about the attachment system

Great video! Thanks. After watching this video I may opt for the Yanmar 324 over a greater HP JD (which is much more expensive).

That rear axle looks awful oily

Super helpful video. Thank you! I find it difficult to reach the PTO shaft.

I watched your video and ended up buying an SA325 8 weeks back. At about 18 hours, I very much agree with your assessment. Thank you. Not enough content on the Yanmar tractor on KZbin.

Put cows on the grass once a mo

The dealer just dropped off my 223. I bit of a difference from an 8N! Career Army and police officer, and I admit to being more than a little intimidated by this tractor! I didn't I could be scared so easily anymore. Seriously, this was a helpful video!!! There aren't too many out there on "basic" operation for beginners like me. Thank you!!!

Anyone have the mid mount deck for the Yanmar SA221? If so, do you drive over that one or slide it under from the side? Mine has plastic parts on top and not all steel to allow the tractor weight.

That seemed a little involved to me. While I agree it would save money, I think it would be better in the long run to have a dedicated mower separate from the tractor one uses for tractor stuff around the homestead or farm. Still, I enjoyed watching the video. :)

I’m looking to buy new after I sell this house and purchase the next house. Sold my Kubota last summer. God I miss my loader. Yanmar looks great. One of the three Im considering actually.

It's been 10 months since you uploaded this video. Would you still buy a Yanmar today? I'm considering a Yanmar over a Kubota.

Where did you get that steering wheel knub from. Just ordered a sa325. I need one of those

Wow, I wish I had that fan shield. Bought mine in 2017 and sure enough, one stick in the woods took all the blades off that fan. Cost me $350 to replace, not counting transporting the machine. I might contact my dealer for that shield.

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.

Nice tractor, thank you for your video. 😊

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.

Had my mind made up to buy Yanmar until I discovered where the hydraulics connect. Still not ruled it out, but is a big concern. Great video!

you pose with the tractor.... stop. its not about you. grow up or get a life.

Its not a lawn tractor.... Its a tractor. Get a zero turn and cut that in 85% of the time that does.

WILL A 48INCH BELLY MOWER FIT THIS UNIT?

Oh this needs mirrors. I put 2 on mine.

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.

do NOT use a tractor regularly to mow grass the soil compaction is HUGE

it sounds like your reading someone else Blog and making it into a video?

dang that's a lot of turf I'm liking that tractor more every time I see it

Kioti for me

Proprietary I don't like as it limits you back to dealer only attachments. Do they make an adapter plate for SSA's to go on this tractor as I've got hay forks, pallet forks, stump digger all for Skid steer hookup. Don't want to have to buy all new attachments. Why I won't buy a John deere too!
