Yanmar SA425

We’ve added a new member to the fleet. Yanmar’s SA425 is a handy little tractor with lots of features you’d find in tractors of much larger sizes and price points.

Great video! Keep in mind that though the loader capacity is 1200 pounds, that is at full stretch up. Working capacity at headlight level or lower is more like 1600 pounds from my experience.

They’re little workhorses

They sure are!@@highlandoffgrid

Nice video, I'm very happy with my 425, just about to hit 50 hours. 👍👍

[@highlandoffgrid]

Let us know how your splitter works off the rear remotes, not sure the flow rate will be adequate to run it efficiently.

[@highlandoffgrid]

Hey Paul. We have a 58hp Case that will likely be our dedicated log splitter now. This tractor would do the trick albeit fairly slowly in comparison.

[@cogentdynamics]

What grapple are you wanting to get? I have a Yanmar one on “order” but it has been a few months of crickets. I’m considering an other make.

[@Highlandoutbuildings.]

I actually have the HLA grapple now. Waiting on hydraulic hoses

[@cogentdynamics]

@@Highlandoutbuildings. I never heard of that company. Will check them out. Is it setup for the Yanmar quick attachment system? Our tractors are not as popular with all the attachment companies yet. I look forward to a video of the grapple someday. Thanks.

[@darylgass9532]

Is there room for tire chains without fender contact ?

[@highlandoffgrid]

Not sure yet. If I add chains I’ll let you know.

[@darylgass9532]

@@highlandoffgrid I just bought one and they are going to put the chains on tomorrow and deliver Wednesday. Apparently they don’t see a problem with it at the dealership so I’ll let you know if they don’t fit.

[@peterd9940]

What size tiller can it handle,

[@Highlandoutbuildings.]

I think the recommended attachments for this are 5 footers. It is only 25hp though so a smaller tiller may be prudent. I don’t use one

[@peterd9940]

@@Highlandoutbuildings. thank you 😊

[@BillyBlaze7]

nobody ever tells what they paid....its like not telling you what brand it is lol

[@highlandoffgrid]

I’m in Canada. With 0% interest your dealer will give you pricing.

[@timothyhoward5785]

About how much?

[@Highlandoutbuildings.]

Prices are different in many areas Tim. Let’s just say less than comparable Kubotas or John Deere’s

[@tcmits3699]

That means he's too embarrassed to tell us
