Radiators between the 3520 and 4520 should be identical one would think?

That's a SECHSY little beast.

Maintenance is easy as this is a mechanical tractor, basic mechanical understanding and tools. Features was rear wiper, cruise control and pretty roomy cab...gotta remember T474 is a compact tractor, I'm only 5'7'' and 215#. So it's perfectly fine for me, capacities in lifting and such were...

Watcha wanna know about the T474, I've had mine for 5 years and 615h with no problems. Main use is brush cutting on the side, logging and snow removal. 3678527 3811968

Keep us posted as I hope you get to put MANY useful hours on the tractor without issue!

I've worked mine pretty good, but not bent anything yet.

This procedure is known by most GOOD TYM experienced mechanics. Agree you shouldn't had to experience what you did. I'm fairly mechanical and I have never needed a dealer or their like. This was a failure by your TYM dealer 1st and foremost as they represent the brand forward. I'm on the...
