F235D-1st Tractor

[vietvetharry]

I'm taking delivery today of my 1st tractor a Yan F235D. I can't seem to find much info on this model. Does anyone have any suggestions or comments on this model? I have 10 ac that needs to be cleared & put into pasture for my 3 horses.

I see you'er new. welcome to the site. I have an older ym model tractor.
I believe your's It's one of the newer tractors.Can the person that you bought the tractor from support the tractor with parts, etc,You needed to find these things out b-4 your purchase. It should be a good tractor . Not sure of parts/ suppiles for your mod .mabe some of the guys with the f mod. tractors can help you out.

Thanks Kenmac, good advice but a little late. My dealer did supply me with manuals for the attachments I brought, a 4ft brushhog, FEL, landscape rake & posthole digger, and showed me how to operate. He did not have a manual or carry parts, so I'm out looking for sources.

Hope tractor Ernie sees your post as he can help. Ernie has I believe 3 of this series tractors for his personal use. These are newer models. Not sure how much different than my model but do know the UFO is a lot more advanced.

Know for my model Ernis says only one part is a little hard to come by. So far I've needed nothing.

If Ernie doesn't respond, here is his web site. Used compact tractors, Japanese tractors and farm tractors

His advice is offered less than three hours after you ask for "suggestions or comments on this model". How is that late?

 

[kenmac]

Mabe he means it's too late as in he already bought the tractor b 4 he ask the question

 

[vietvetharry]

You got it right. I wish I knew of this group b4 I bought, but I thought I was alone. In fact I had research out the 2210D, but I decided on the F235D that I saw on the dealer's lot. It seemed to be newer and stronger than the YM2210, so I decided to take a chance with it. It WAS a Yanmar, how could I go wrong. Semper Fi

 

[kenmac]

I don't think you went wrong with the yanmar brand. I think you should have bought from a dealer that could support the tractor with parts, if that mod. can be supported with parts at all . You mabe able to get some parts ,but I'am sure parts will be limited for that mod. As far as parts you would have had better luck with the 2210 ,but I wouldn't have bought the 2210 from him if he couldn't supply parts for it either..Good luck

Welcome V.V. Harry,

I wouldn't feel abandoned for buying a newer model Yanmar, we're just a little in the dark with the F235D model. In fact you're in a unique position to provide members with an informal "Tractor and Implement Review"...and attached pictures are always helpfull.

Can you tell us about the tractor and dealer? Is your tractor used or reconditioned? And since your taking delivery does your dealer provide a warranty, service or repair procedures? Many members (here) have taken delivery and are on their own regarding maintenance and acquiring parts...is this the case with you?

Fairly certain that someone on the forum has a close or identical model....we just need to make the match with a little more information. Good Luck with your new package.....

Mark

VH, don't worry about the model, and lack of comments here. Most have the older models (Y series) and there is just more info. Parts will not be a problem unless something major (motor or xmisser) break. Even then, most parts will be available just, may be, a little slower to get. Enjoy it! You made an excellent decision.
