I am about to retire my old Ym1500 grey market yanmar and looking to purchase the new CC Yanmar Lx410 any other owners have any advice on this machine.
I've put almost 50 hours on my LX, its been excellent. Mine has all the same parts as the 410, just a different transmission (HST). I've found it has plenty of power for loader work, box bladeing, and plowing snow but haven't used the PTO for anything yet.. I'm about 5' 11" 200lbs and I find its very comfortable and easy to use, I love the quick-attach on the front loader. It also has great lighting for night work. It seems pretty fuel efficient from what I can tell and the fluids on the dipsticks are still clear after almost 50 hours of use.
Note, the 410 is probably a 2011 model, Yanmar added a zero to the model number after they split from CC that same year but its the same machine they make today. Just thought I'd mention that so you know you can get a better discount over the 2012 and 13 production models.
Bought a Yanmar LX410 (shuttle shift)fall of 2012....love it.....when it runs. It began to simply shut off ( just as if you cut the key off ) about 75hrs into my ownership.
First fuel shutoff problem started about March of 2013. Dealer replaced the fuel solenoid on the injector pump that is supposed to stop the fuel when you cut the key switch off. That seemed to cure the problem, until last week, at 210hrs, when it started the same situation.....very intermittent....you might run 5 minutes and it die, or 3 hours.....no pattern I could determine.
Dealer replaced the fuel solenoid AGAIN ( 2nd time ) and said "it's fixed". I brought it home, drove off the trailer, let it idle while I unhitched the trailer and it died twice in 15 minutes while just idling ( shuttle in neutral, park brake on, with lights lit on both ).
Took it back, and they've had it a week now.
There is a fuel solenoid relay and a main relay that all the seat/neutral/brake switches run thru....possibly one is bad, but the main relay has to be ordered from Japan according to my dealer....not even one IN the US.
Love the tractor....when it runs.
