Who's Foton?

[jkis]

in australia there marketed as a eruo leppard, i have the 2wd 25hp, i have had it for almost 5 years, the price was close to s/h kubotas ect, but came with 2 years warrenty, 2 extra hydraulic take offs, and 540/1000 pto, the slasher isnt the best ratio and have to rev a bit higher to get the cuts i regiured, the cutter bar is weak and twisted up when i hit a few rocks, i convertid it over to chains but ready for a new slasher now, the radiator is more like a car radiator fins a bit to close and dont let the grass seeds go thru, i use air to deseed the radiator if the temp rizes, the steer brakes pedals are small so i can only use the right turn or both, the hydraulic lines go under the tractor and i have pulled them both a few times and now have then repostioned higher, i did change the battery to an optima to handle being so close to the radiator (heat)
for the few small problems i've had i'm very happy with it
cheers stuart

There is a lot of wrong information being spread here
Foton tractors are not Jinma's or visa versa........They are 2 completely different companies with completely different production lines and are of completely different designs. Yes they may share engine types (Just like JD and Yanmar) but they are not the same tractor
Foton is owned by the Chinese government the company that makes Jinma is a private company one of the biggest stake holders being Mahindra.
So just as JD are not NH so Foton is not Jinma.
