Tractor
TYM T474H
Hey Guys, I have a TYM 474 on order with loader and backhoe. Hope to have it this weekend! This will be the second tractor I owned. My first was a john deere 1025 with loader and backhoe and a 60" deck. I bought it when I needed a mower and figured I could get use of the tractor too, I have 15 acres of property. It's been a great little tractor but now I want bigger! I looked at bigger JDs but they are expensive and still built like a big riding mower with a separate engine and transmission. The more I look at the TYM 474 the more impressed I get! I am a heavy equipment mechanic so I can do my own services and repairs. For this tractor I'll have to get a rear finish mower for the regular grass mowing. Since its still cat 1 implements I can still use the other implements I got for the little JD. I think I'll get the dealer to install the 3rd function before I pick it up. The company I work for has a bunch of skid steer attachments I can borrow. Really anxious to play with this tractor! It's BIG compaired to my 1025 with the barbie power wheel size tires!

Welcome to TBN and our little TYM family. Mine is the 574. Same engine, but turbo and a size up on frame. Lot's of 474 owners to answer questions.
