Please help...Info on Bolens needed quickly

[vallyfarm]

I have a line on a Bolens/Iseki Model #NO H1704 Hydro. Type TX2160F. Ser #012876. I believe it is 17 hp. It has a 3 cyl engine. ANY info can help. I want to use it to pull my 3pt transplanter and a 4ft rototiller. How much can the 3pt lift? Are there any trouble spots I should look out for? What would be a close match in the Yanmar line? Again, ANY info about this tractor will be greatly appreciated. Thank You, Mike

Did you run across this site?

Bolens - Iseki Diesel Tractor Models

Looks like the Iseki equivalent is the TX2160F HST. That guy might have the info you're looking for.... or not. Hope this helps some.

Here is another link, which lists: Lifting capacity: 380 kg

That guy (Pudding) is in New Zealand where they are common. It's my impression that they are excellent quality but there are few Iseki's in the US so getting parts will be slow - just as there have been few responses to your 'needed quickly' inquiry. There simply aren't many owners here in the US.

Pudding also has this Iseki US parts locator list on one of his sites:

ISEKI parts suppliers

Do you happen to be close enough to one of those firms to take it in for service?

I made a list of parts suppliers some time ago and posted it here, try a search. It might help. Best of luck.

I can supply most parts for this tractor in a couple of days if necessary.
