I recently purchased a YM1700. According to the information I can find it should have a Category 1 hitch. Mine has a Category 0 hitch. Is it safe to go get Cat 1 hitch arms and make the switch?
YM1700 has an American-market near twin (YM195) that is well documented. Both of those are near identical but less hp compared to the YM2000/YM240 twins.I recently purchased a YM1700. According to the information I can find it should have a Category 1 hitch.
I agree with Clemsonfor. But it is hard to tell how or why it's like that. I don't see any problems with switching it to cat 1.Nope no harm if you indeed do have a 1700. Pretty much every other one I have heard of has a 1. Maybe yous came over mated with the custom yanmar tiller and the one put the 3pt hitch on he just had laying around or got a good deal on. You can buy the complete setup from Hoye and I should bolt/pin right on.
