    How close is a YM186 to a YM1700?

    I found a belly mower off of a YM186 that uses the large pulley instead of the 3pt driveline and curious if it will fit my YM1700? Does it still lift from the 3pt arms? It has chains on the front also, looks like. He is emailing me more pictures today. Bill

    What does this lever do on a YM1700?

    Look to the left of the left lift arm. There is a short spring loaded lever with a black knob on it that cams back and forth in the bracket. What is this for? Bill

    Which PTO over run to buy?

    What do most use on the compacts? I have a Yanmar YM1700 and found one of the quick release ones for about $68 or one of the type that you have to drive the pin into for about $40. I would assume that since the tractor does not have live PTO that once you put it on it would stay on for all PTO...
