The paint color is right. But I question if Yanmar ever sold that model.

I have a continuous Ebay search going for 'Yanmar backhoe', hoping to find the little one made for my YM186D. I have seen photos of the manuals, for I think all of the backhoes made for Yanmars back in the YM era.

I've never seen one with all those separate control levers.

Some pix, in a thread about the various YM Yanmar backhoes.

You are forgetting one important thing here. The listing only says Yanmar backhoe, not that it's one for a YM machine. Recall Yanmar did make industrial tractors for the USA market after they pulled up root for selling Ag tractors. The CBL40 is one of them.

So, what we see here is one of the CBL era backhoes.

If we look at the Yanmar backhoe for the F & FX series it would look like the OPs posting, but in red color,

Ok I'm half-convinced. Maybe a YBH-800?

Its only 3 hours away but she'll have a fit and it's to big to quietly fit into the collection.

This wasn't necessarily Yanmar green originally. The hoses got painted green along with the part for the 3-point

I just remembered who built for OEM Yanmar, Kubota, Deere etc back in the day: ARPS. Then looking at photos on Google, this looks like an early ARPS 728.

On Yesterday's Tractor there were several people looking for various ARPS manuals. No replies. That was in 2001.
