I own a Mitsubishi MT372D that is the same as the Satoh you are looking at.It is a 15hp , 2 cylinder deisel that is water cooled . It is the best investment I could have made to help me with my chores . It handles a 48" belly mower great . It handles a 48" brush cutter great . It handles a 48" box blade great . I don't know how it would handle a FEL , but my guess would be it will do fine with in its size limits . I have needed very few parts since I bought mine , but can tell you that parts prices are kind of steep . Most parts are available from many dealers that post on this site and the Yanmar site . I wouldn't hesitate to buy it if it is in good shape and hasn't been abused . It will last you many many years if you give it normal maintenance attention . Get a service and parts manual . They are available thru many dealers here .
Where is it located ? What are they asking for it ? What kind of loader is on it ? What type of tires does it have ? That was a fairly popular tractor in its time and there are quite a few of them around yet . What do you intend to do with the tractor ?
Sorry for the long post , but I am a Mitsubishi tractor fan . Very nice tractors !!
Almost forgot to tell you..........check to be sure it has a standard size pto shaft that turns clockwise . They made the Satoh with a 22mm counter clockwise rotating pto for a few years . I had one of those too but couldn't find any implements that would run backwards . If you only want it for the FEL thats a different story ,but would definately drop the value of that unit . Let me know if you need any more info .
