It Arrived.........

[Neat 1500]

HaHa, yeah my daughter is only 4 and asking me when she can drive the tractor. She also twigged that its doesnt look like my tractor(my 1500) but i told her it was its little sister. i may have some good news too,i rang yanmar australia and they found a YM14 service manual on disc, he said he will copy it and send it to me. what a nice bloke he is. also most parts are still available so thats also good to know.

I am jealous! that is one neat riding mower! :thumbsup: One thing though, where is the picture of it next to your 1500?

i finally introduced them today, i dont think the 1500 was jealous
the 70s front is still better than the 80s version i think too :thumbsup:

Have you actually tried ordering parts for it yet? I think you're going to be very dissapointed when you do...

Every dealer I've asked has said yes, except Jamieson and Hoye. When I tried to order anything other than filters, all the other dealers came back and said parts weren't available... Jamieson and Hoye already knew this..

I'm not aware of many parts being available at all for our little GT's. At least not here in the states, or in England, as I've tried over there as well..

PS.


The tractor is in good shape! I see you've got the BM480SB-E mower deck on there. That's the nicest one!

Yeah did ask them what was available, they said some bits are still available but until they tried to get them from Yanmar Australia they couldn't tell me exactly. i knew this before i bought it so no real surprise for me.
