I have a Yanmar 2310 compact tractor that I pull and lift my 5ft bush hog. I do however have wights on the front which I'm sure help with lift. I run it at 2300 rpm's with it's pto in gear two, so it don't spin it to fast and run the tractor in second gear as well. I mow 4-5 acres with no...

What my daughter and I found on the internet was decent prices for tires (12.2 - 24) but then you have to have them shipped and then you take them and your tractor to the local tire repair shop that can handle about any type of tire changing and now you get to pay him to do the work. So, by the...

Thanks bmaverick, I will get into this as I can. Reviews on the Tach is impressive. One will be mine as I have no PTO indicator. It's been okay with PTO 2 and 2300 rpm's but I need to know.

Thanks I'll look into it, but I would have figured that most if not all Bush Hods would operate at roughly the same PTO speeds. Just trying to get a handle on it.

When I bought my Yanmar 2310 about 2015. It came with the Howse Bush Hog and the gent told me to use it in #2 PTO position, in second gear and at 2300 engine rpm's. I have followed that setting for the most part since day one. I don't know the PTO speeds of which there are four and if I run it...

Thanks for the input. My PTO has four positions. #2 is the PTO position I run the Bush Hog in. I also run the tractor in second gear. My tractor is a YANMAR and I have no manual, nor does my engine tach tell me anything about PTO rpm. I wasn't sure of what the hogs speed could or should be. So I...

I bought a 4 post Back Yard Buddy about 1999. I bought it because of it's safety background. It has paid for itself many times over and I'm glad I bought it. BUT, what I learned to not like about it is when I have brake, tire or suspension work to do. Why? Well I have to jack up what ever wheel...

I realize it's been a few years since you posted this Hi Joe, I realize it's been a few years since you posted this, but I could use the 317 manual. I've owned my 317 for several years and had to depend on the good hearted mood of a parts man to supply me with any info I was seeking on my...

I've had my 317 for several years and never run into this before. So I'm not sure how things go. I had my snow blower hooked up and yesterday was the first day I had to use it. It was blowing just fine and all at once it stopped working. After pulling the grill, I seen that the tension pulley...

I have a 2310D and today I was looking for the glow plug and I either blind or it don't have one. Anybody know and where is it? Also how does it work?

From one Veteran to all other Veterans and current Military Personnel , I THANK YOU for your service. SALUTE!

When I bought my Yanmar 2310, it came with only one key. I contacted Hoyte and they sent me a new Yanmar key. Problem was, it wouldn't work. Another phone call to them and they said that it was the key that fits the 3 cylinder Yanmar Tractor. Well, it don't work on mine. So, with me being the...

Hi all. I'm JT and new to Yanmar and "REAL" tractors. Introduced myself (Nubee from Northern Indiana) in the Introduction Forum, figured I best do it here as well. I have a 1980 Yanmar 2310, 3 cyl diesel. Had it for about two weeks and love that thing already. Have 6 acres to mow and a bunch of...

I'm called JT and as stated, from Northern Indiana. As the fella ahead of me said, putting with us nubee"s, is much appreciated. I"m a member of several forums and find them very good places to meet people and get some help from time to time, as well as be able to help others. I'm an old car and...
