Honest Worker
Model Year: 1977
I use it to pump water to water tanks. I put an hour meter on it last year. It did just over 400 hours. I've had it at least 15 years and I bought it second hand from Japan. So, with 15 years and at least 300 hours per year, that equals 4,500 plus hours. It just sits still using the power take-off pumping water. It uses 0.8 liters of diesel an hour and uses just oil and oil filters. So, if the previous owner did 200 hours a year on rice paddies, that's 5,000 hours plus my 4,500 hours.
Pros: Reliable
Cons: No power steering
