Welcome to TBN.

When I check in I always go to "my posts" first. Then next stop is "today's posts". I never go to a specific forum such as Yanmar.

We're here.

Waiting for another Classic Yanmar newbie to come along and ask the newbie questions.




If you just need something to read here's a Yanmar story with photos and everything. First time in 14 years I got so stuck I had to use the other tractor to get out. Attached a cable and pulled the little guy sideways, then used the cable tension to drive in an arc like a pendulum to get free of the downhill fence.

Are we entertained yet? Hey somebody, anybody, post something more relevant!

I've never had to go into a Yanmar engine, so don't know the answer. Anybody?

That's just a 'participation trophy' for posting a lot - unrelated to the concept of 'wisdom'.

Thanks for your time and help!

California, Never been to your state, from your pic, it looks somewhat like the foothills of the blue ridge, except our dirt is red for the most part. Do you work in the vineyards? This area has been getting into wine, and wineries for the past several years.

You probably have summer rain to keep everything fresh and it probably looks prettier there this time of year. Here it doesn't rain roughly Easter to Thanksgiving so we start off green. But by late summer everything is brown and it has to be disced or mowed to keep down the fire danger.

That photo above is looking down into the ravine at the back corner of the cultivated land. Its all impassable steep blackberry jungle, big oaks, and eucalyptus, beyond that fence.

Here are some photos I've posted here in the past. Green in winter and spring, dry later. Nearly all my neighbors have converted to grapes over the last few years. I won't, this is a retirement hobby farm (orchard) for me and I like it the way it is.
