What a bunch of malarky! I bought a TYM 474 and it works great. Have it 2 years and NOT a single issue with it. Have a look at what I have done with it, just search my posts here. I carved out a 32 x 48-foot barn footing out of a mountain of rocks. The only wear on the machine was the teeth on...

Second year for me plowing with my TYM 474. Don't use the auto float feature. I had the same issue the first time and in later snow storms started just setting the blade down until it touched the ground. Worked that way yesterday and today to finish up. Don't put pressure on the plow though, you...

How sad for this little angel! Her mother needs to be sent to prison for reckless endangerment or worse, criminal endangerment.

Were any jets flying overhead when this happened? I've seen similar damage while I was a roofing contractor, now retired. Turned out to be a chunk of blue ice. You should see what that stuff does to a slate roof. If so the airport can tell what plane was flying over and the airline will be...

Just keep up the maintenance and it should last a long, long time without abuse. Before I bought my TYM 474H I looked at Kubota and JD. If you want to pay for a name brand there you go. Dollar for dollar TYM walks all over these competitors. Bang for the buck as they say is well worth more than...

I bought a TYM 474H last year, 35 HP, with FEL and a backhoe as well as a 7.5' sickle bar for mowing the banks on my 14.5-acre farm. That tractor is a real workhorse. Just got done digging out a 24' x 50' space in the hillside for a new pole barn I'm going to build(The entire barn will be set...
