    MIG Welder for Beginner/Light Use

    I have a Vulcan 215 MIG from HF, it can use argon/co2 or just plan argon for cover gas and runs on 115/240v. I'm a newb, so I use wire with flux core still. Works pretty good for what I need.

    If I were you I'd avoid palletforks.com, NO after market support for parts. Get it from Novatractor.com or betstco.com if you want Chinese made flail mowers with actual parts support.

    Pull type Hybrid snowblowers ?

    I drive through 18'' of snow with my small TYM T474 with no issues and my 68'' MK Martin pull type blower. I added some magnetic inside mirrors to help keep track of the turret instead of adding electronic devices. I work in IT and has become more simplistic the older I get.

    Cracked plastic on cab top on T474.

    I did take my time using these hot staples, then cut off the legs and dremel them down to where I could use the blade for the gun to even out the tops. Then I sanded and applied a extra matte black color. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B096RPQN58?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1

    Best Snowblower?

    You're using it wrong then. You can't be lazy, you've gotta stay on top of removing snow. It's not for breaking new ground or if you deal with drifts. Each piece of equipment has it's place. Here i am using the piss out of mine.

    474 v 494

    The 5835r is a TYM legacy carryover from Branson, and almost a tad bigger. It will outspec the 494 in lifting capacities, but only comes with ROPS if cab was in the horizon for you.
  38. TractorTYMe

    474 v 494

    I think the T474 is a very reliable tractor, you just need to do your daily preflight list, check fluids and bolts not coming lose (Important in first 50h of ownership). I have 453h on mine since 2020 and I love it. I also towed it with my halfton until I got another 20 year old truck but a 2500...

    LS XR4145 blown head gasket at 610 hours?

    Oh man, I feel so sorry for you man. I'm glad my TYM has a dumb simple mechanical IDI engine in it. I'm IT guy and I hate computers on equipment. Hope you be able to get parts and refurbish your current engine. That's too new to have serious problems like that?

    On the exhaust manifold, there is a little square plug you can unbolt if tractor refuses to start due to plugged filter. This is a help to diagnose if the filter is plugged. Then you can accidentally "drop" the filter 😬

    474 v 494

    I haven't seen a T474 with the axle problem yet, I think there is a design issue on the T494/574? I hope TYM resolves it soon, if I were you I'd get a 4820 or 5520. Tho I've 450 problem free hours on my T474.

    Small Tractor reco - Primarily for snowblowing long drive

    For Canada I would not be doing snow removal without a cab? Maybe a tractor with a cab and a pull type snowblower? I have a Canadian MK Martin Meteor SB68 P/T on my 2019 Korean made TYM T474 HST.

    I decided to throw the chains on and mount the snowblower even tho it hasn't snowed more since Tuesday, but we've had single digits at night making the surfaces mount a base already from the 8'' almost a week ago. Figure it need to come on sooner or later? First year with the hydraulic deflector...

    Questions on TYM T474 operator platform

    If you're a big fella, I'd recommend the T494/574 or the 5520 for ya if your $$$ can stretch to that size? It will be worth it and no regrets to have proper size accomodation. For me the T474 is fine as I'm only 5'7''.

    First time tractor

    For forested areas my T474 is pretty nice, last weekend I was into the woods with my cab tractor and forestry winch. But you'll have to determine yourself how big you want to go? I'd say a Legacy model 4820 would be a nice choice.

    Mk Martin pull behind snowblower problems with quick hitch

    I was too far invested getting things together, I just had the fuel tank left when I saw it butted up against it. I've had people later tell me even after the dealer installed this kit, the bolts touched the fuel tank and they had to take it off and grind the bolts to correct the problem.
