Need guidance on 1510D

Scot, That is one nice looking tractor! Congrats, and welcome to the Yanmar family.

I got mine back mid summer, and have put about 50 hours on it now without incident. Its completely changed the way I'm able to work with my property. You'll find the same I'm sure. Is it your first tractor?

You got a good buy on the tiller if the tines are decent. I just got my tiller about two weeks ago. Until now, the vegetable garden was done with hand tools and I couldn't handle more than a hundred square feet. Now, we're doing ten times that this year with 10 times less work.

Please keep us informed of the projects you do with it.

Thanks guys, esepcially for the help/input. I am going to have a few questions pretty soon.


It's my second compact tractor; but, i grew up on a large farm in Indiana, I'm accustomed to handling 200+hp tractors with slightly larger implements.

I had a Kubota B7200HST for a while. The HST is nice for mowing, although after playing with this powershift trans I think I will like it better. The powershift trans has a lot more "Connected" feel to it, and I couldn't imagine this tiny tractor without 4wd.

Mainly it'll be used to push a little dirt around, to till the garden (GF wants a bigger garden this year!), and to mow the outskirts of the property a few times a year with a brush mower of some sort,
