TYM T390

[Redneck in training]

I certainly did, it arrived Friday.

It is a very different beast to my last two compacts, which were Yanmar YM186D.

Whereas my small flail mower would slow down the tractor to near stall in the rough stuff this beast just chews through it all without any struggle.

One thing that does puzzle me is the two levers inboard of the 3 point linkage operating control and draft control.

In the TYM operators manual these are described as "Exterior hydraulic Lever (Optional) - the accompanying drawing labels them A and B.

The next part describes the "Remote hydraulic control valve coupler" - which are also labelled A and B.

What puzzles me is do these levers affect the flow of fluid to/from the hydraulic couplers ?

I need to operate a log splitter off these guys and do not need these levers to do anything.

Also does anyone know which hydraulic coupler is fluid out and which is return ?

Sorry for the dumb @ss questions........

Thanks all

There is no flow from the couplers until you move the lever. A is supply and B is return in one position. In the other position it is opposite. B is supply and A is return.
To operate log splitter connect it to the couplers and then move the lever. If the splitter doesn't work move the lever to the other side.

Ah right, that makes so much more sense in a few words that TYM manage with a lot more words and two drawings in their "operators manual".

When my tractor arrived both levers were set right back so I guess that I am going to have problems with the hydraulics.

The rear linkage goes up and down fine though.

Thanks for the help, much appreciated.

BTW - love the footer about the front steps, one of the simple pleasures about living away from the rest of humanity.

Sorry guys, another wacky question.

How do you top up the hydraulic oil ?

Its a manual transmission so I assume it does not share the hydrostatic transmission oil.

My T330 Gear uses tranny/hydraulic(TDH or CheveronTHF) fluid because it is shared. Fill and site level glass at rear of tractor. Yours is most likely also, but I am not certain. It should tell you in the manual what kind and where to fill and check.
