Help - 2610 won\'t start, suspect Voltage Regulator Had the tractor out last Saturday and mowed for about an hour, shut down and when in to eat lunch and there was a brief rain but when I went back to the tractor a couple hours later it would not turn over. Tried to jump the battery but no...

I purchased my 2610 about 6 months ago with what appeared to be a new battery (55 month waranty). I went out yesterday to find the battery dead and when I tried to jump it the battery smoked as I tried to turn the tractor over. When I was removing the battery I noticed it was much smaller...

After reading all the posts on this board about the process of repriming a deisel engine I swore I'd never let it happen to me. I've only had my yanmar for 3 weeks now and I've already done it - ran my tank dry! I retrieved a couple of wrenches, screwdrivers and put on a pair of rubber gloves...

Here is the pic I promised. The 2610 is a great machine with loads of power. I was puilling a 6 ft disk (with an extra 400-500 lbs on top of the disk for extra weight) going in 4th gear (1st-2nd on the powershift) through my yard. I was very impressed and I know I made the right decision...

I finally found the right tractor after a seemingly endless search. Thanks guys for all the good advice and answers to my numerous posts on this (and other) forums. I ended up finding just what I wanted only 30 miles from home and the guy was willing to deliver for free. I decided on a YM2610...

I am almost ready to take the plunge and purchase my first tractor. Just wanted some last minute advice. First, I always hear people say the average guy buys more tractor than he needs. Well, I have 3 acres and I plan to pull a 5' tiller and/or a 6' disk to work up the ground before I seed my...

I've done a lot of research on the internet and a little shopping around for a used Yanmar. I am considering checking out a Yanmar at Lowe's Tractor and Equiptment in Greensburg, IN. Just wanted to know if anyone here has any knowledge or experience with this outfit before I make a 2 hr trip...
