    TYM T1104

    I can find a dealer that stocks a lot of parts for TYM. I bought all the filters for my 50 hr service and they shipped them to Texas. They are located in Oregon and if you search this board, you can find them. They probably can't get you warranty parts, but if you can get the parts you need...

    Help to identify Hydraulic connectors on tractors

    Thanks everyone for the assistance. I now own a bucket full of hydraulic quick connect connectors and changed the ones on my grain drill. I learned not to remove the connector while the drill was raised. Got about 1 gallon or so of hydraulic fluid all over me from the change when I unscrewed...

    Help to identify Hydraulic connectors on tractors

    This is a better photo. I believe it is a 1/2 inch ISO7241-1 Series A. Photo is on end of flail mower cable. These are the male connectors and the female quick locks are on the tractor. Click on photo to enlarge. Do these replacements simply screw on end of cable using teflon tape or locktite...

    Help to identify Hydraulic connectors on tractors

    I have M6800 Kubota for over 20 years and it seems to use Ag Type connectors for all hydraulic fittings as do my Drill (planter), Post Driver, and hydraulic top link on Kubota M6800. I recently purchased new TYM T-1104 and all hydraulic fittings are similar but different and will not fit. Of...

    Hydraulic line size.

    All of mine kinda blew up at once. I had to take them off and measure them and write down the fittings. Many hydraulic shops and some auto supply shops can build you new cables. Don't skrimp on good cable material. Most shops will give estimates over the phone, but with all the loader...

    TYM T1104 Tractor & TX110 Loader and a lot of questions

    Congrats on the new tractor. I suspect my neighbors could hear me moving hay into the barn at 1:00 in the morning, but the lights seemed like daylight. I think it makes a very nice farm tractor for me and I love the a/c. I have never seen any derating, minimum DEF use and sounds like regens...

    T654/T754 or T1104?

    I bought my TYM T-1104 in November 2022 for $64,700+$91.10 heavy equipment tax. 110 hp and came with everything,except implements.

    T654/T754 or T1104?

    I have recently purchased a new T1104 and it is a wonderful tractor so far. Lifts over 4000 pounds on the forks or bucket. Used it to stack 32 2000# 4x4x8ft rectangular bales under the barn overhang, that my 68hp Kubota could not do.

    Better parking brake warning needed.

    Sometimes I think my tractor has too many nannies, but it will not move with the parking brake on. My old M6800 would run until you could smell the brakes with the parking brake on. My TYM T1104 seems to have learned a lot from Kubota and will not go using the power shuttle until the power...

    Hydraulic Issues

    I have not pushed the fender buttons, but I would expect them to work just like the Bosch control and move the 3 point links to the correct position and stay there. I have not tried it yet. The main differences in the Kioti PX1153 and the TYM T1104 is the TYM uses newer electronics except for...

    Hydraulic Issues

    Hi again. How long have you had your machine and is it still in warranty? How did you find out what the code meant? If it really is a potentiometer they are not very friendly in a wet environment. I looked at the position device and it was a very long device, so it could be a potentiometer...

    Thanks for the comment LouNY. I was actually looking for a Branson 80 hp, but they were never really available. The TYM is really a nice tractor. The hi/low is auto clutch and on the fly, so it is a really nice feature for me. When you need a 1/2 gear increase or decrease, just push the...

    Buying Advice I want to buy a new Tier 4 tractor this year!

    Yes, I am sure that is true since TYM, Kioti, Mahindra and others pioneered the SCR Catalyst system. Below 75 hp, none of then have DPF or use DEF. I considered a Deer and have an old one in my barn now, but the new six series Deer Utility tractors compare with the new TYM T-1104 6 Series TYM...

    Buying Advice I want to buy a new Tier 4 tractor this year!

    TYM makes a 74hp T-754 with a Deutz engine. It does not use DEF and looks like a really nice tractor, but any 75 hp or above tractor regardless of manufacturer is required to use DEF. Bummer.

    TYM T1104 Tractor & TX110 Loader and a lot of questions

    Today I took delivery of a new TYM T1104 Tractor & TX110 Loader and would like to be a contributor in this forum. Unfortunately there are many unknowns for me, but I guess I will struggle for a while. This is an upgrade to my 22 year old Kubota M6800 which has served me well.

    M4D-071 Maximum Operating Weight

    1) You will never regret buying the pull behind version of this drill. Fast turning with a 3 point drill simply tears up the disks on the drill and this drill is heavy when fully loaded especially when using weights on the drill for hard soil conditions. 2) Look at the Nebraska test site and...

    Buying Advice I want to buy a new Tier 4 tractor this year!

    Did your loader come with a loader quick attach or did you add one? I have a few other questions if you don't mind. The closest TYM dealer here seems to be primarily a zero-turn mower shop, but he recently moved and I have not seen his new shop.

    Please explain further as I have never bought KTAC Insurance as my tractor purchase was cash. I really want my first choice of the Kubota M6-111, but the price keeps going up and even with a 20% discount (if available), it is still expensive. The TYM really looks equivalent to the M6 for 40%...

    My first tractor was a Massey Ferguson 245 with an aftermarket loader. It BROKE in half at the front axle pivot while brush hogging.

    Doubling the HP allows more work to be done at higher speeds. I have not found anyone who is familiar with all three tractors to help make a decision since the cost differences are significant. I really like the M4. It is probably more reliable since it does not use DEF fluid, but sure hate...

    Painting a Pipe Fence
