Hi,

Supposed to be quite high end tractors. Kubota engines in some and Deere engines in others. Seem them advertised with a 5yr powertrain warranty.
However, just a tad pricey.

They have a web site.

My understanding is that they also build for Century and Mahindra. Anyways, that is what I heard.

Take care and have a good one.

Tom

Yup, have seen one and is a really nice piece of equipment.

Challengers all have CAT engines but the TYM is still Kubota and Deere.
From what I have heard, in process of restructuring and still do and will be doing the Century\Mahindra. Parent company in Korea does the Mahindras etc. Might be trying to break off the connection but seems to be trying to considate more in the USA market.

They are nice and they are pricey BUT they have good warranties ( 5 years ) and when I talked to a guy he was offering 10 year financing.

Actually know of one for sale in Canada. 33hp\hydro\loader\5' belly mower, one outlet, 100 hrs, list is $26500 and will sell for $24500 ( note that these are Cdn funds ) and finance for 10 years. As I say, nice but pricey.

Have a good one.

I was a TYM dealer. TYM is the Manufacturer for Scorpion, Millennium and 10 series Mahindra's. They do not build Century. The TYM tractor is a factory direct concept where the company will sell to OEM companies and build a slightly different model that they sell direct. It is ran by ex employees of Kioti and owned half by Korea and half buy a guy on the east coast.

TYM was difficult to do business with. Some parts were in stock but a fair amount were striped off tractors in crates out back. Complicated warranty claims and parts claims for dealers. During my association with them they didn’t pay one warranty claim to us. I would say half the tractors we received had hours on them, some had close to 30 hours, they were tractors that had been sent out as demos or had been on other dealers lots. One tractor we received was two years old before we got it with 31 hours on the meter. Some customers waited up to a year to get the correct wheels and tires for their tractors.

The hardest part was the fact that we could not post specs or prices online. The idea being that if customers knew as much as the salesman about a tractor that it is harder to "sell" the tractor. They also would not let us advertise the Kubota and John Deere engines fearing that those companies would cut there supply of engines off. Also TYM can only be sold on the west coast because in the east they are known as Scorpion. I have customers that moved back east and cant get Scorpion dealers to honor their warranty.

The tractors seemed OK. We have seen an average amount of repairs. Most of the problems related to clutches. Dash panels warped in the sun. Maybe that has changed but from the current photos it looks the same. 5-year warranty is front to back for the first year and coverage goes down significantly after that. Overall an OK tractor but the company definitely has growing pains.

If you like the TYM buy a 10 series Mahindra. You get a better price, established nationwide dealerships not just the west coast and a more established company when it comes to parts distributions and dealers.

I've had a T330 HST for about 6 months. It's been a great machine so far. Zero problems.

Kubota/Eaton drivetrain. A front axle that looks exactly like a Kioti's. It seems that all high quality Asian tractors originate from the same Japaneese/Korean parts bins these days. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
I highly recommend TYM based on my personal experience, though.

Century tractors are built by Kukje, which also builds the Branson and Zetor C-series compacts that are/were sold in the USA. Kukje is of good quality, and even build some John Deere tractors in S.Korea.

TYM (Tong Yang Moolsen) were originally derived from Iseki tractors and technology. Their latest link-up has been with Case IH. (They market/assemble several Case IH tractors in S.Korea). They build the TYM, Scorpion, some Mahindra models, the former Millenium, and Allmand tractors for sale in the USA. TYM just struck a new distribution agreement with AM Jawa in the USA, starting in 2006. Scorpion's will still be distributed by Decker & Co.

Hey Butt!,

Not tryin to be smart or nothin. but John deere is what ya should lease to people if you like the people. I onced went up a huge steep hill with my John Deere and I don't believe I could make it on a Mahindra or a Tym.. If you are true tractor tester Ya'll should ride a John Deere cusz I reckon you wouldn't switch then.

</font><font color="blue" class="small">( i have a allmand tractor made by tym )</font>
I also have one, 8435 HST. Since Allmand dropped this model, I have no way of finding maintenance information. Can you give me filter part numbers? Also, I would like to locate owner/parts/repair manuals. Any assistance would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Attach some pictures of your tractor and some of the specs that you know on the tractor, and maybe some of us can come up with the TYM or Mahindra model that compares with it. I'll help you if I can.

Other than the Mitsu engine I believe it is the same as the 330HST (TYM) or the 3510HST (Mahindra) Give AmJawa a call (888-357-5105) and ask for Chad. Explain your situation and he should be able to help you or put you in touch with a dealer that can help. AmJawa may or may not yet have all the parts yet but they are on the way. Feel free to tell him to call Jay if he has any questions you cannot answer. He has my number.
Happy Tractoring

LaWalls Tractor and Chipperman:

I don't have the tractor with me now. I will take some pictures this weekend when I pick it up from the seller's yard.
Here is the specification for Allmand 8435 HST:

Engine: Mitsubishi S4L2 36 hp 4 cylinders (different from TYM 330 HST or Mahindra 3510 HST)
Drive train: HST 3 range, MFWD, Differential lock, Wet disk brake, Hydrostatic steering
PTO: independent, electro-hydraulic, 540 rpm @2775 rpm (rear), 2000 rpm @2650 rpm (mid)
Hydraulics: open center, 6.3 gpm main, 4.5 gpm steering
3ph: position control, 2080 lb @ lift point, 1200 lb @ 23" behind lift point
Length: 114"
Width: 52"
Height: 93"
Wheel base: 66"
Min ground clearance: 14.6"
Weight: 3064 lbs
Hydrostatic pump: Eaton 77122RAA

The folks at Allmand mentioned certain models of TYM and Mahindra are same but could not give me specific model numbers. Are TYM T330 HST and Mahindra 3510 HST basically the same machine?

What I really need now is the list of filters, if possible, with part numbers. Since this is an oddball tractor, I want to acquire as much maintenance information as I can. Thanks for the lead, Chipperman. I will call him tomorrow.

</font><font color="blue" class="small">( Are TYM T330 HST and Mahindra 3510 HST basically the same machine? )</font> The only major difference is the motor, Tym uses a Kubota motor and I believe that Mahindra uses a Daedong , Both are good motors. The mitsibishi S4L2 is also used on a couple of Montana and Farmtrac compact models so parts support and filters will be readily available

Thank you gentlemen for the replies. Last Tuesday I went to a local auction (I said to DW that I would just to watch) and bought this tractor. I used all the right information I learned from TBN such as "no blue or white smoke" "no leaks" "running PTO" etc. It met all these criteria. But I knew nothing about discontinued brand or model.

I feel better now knowing that it can be serviced and parts are going to be available in the future (and even phone numbers for parts and maintenance info). Thank you all.
