Just took delivery of a new YM347 today and it's a beast. My question is probably a stupid one, but here goes: There are two keys on the key ring, not identical keys, why?

Is it a cab model? Do you have a lock on the door?

One for ignition and one for fuel cap.

Thanks freightboy; I was doing some late night reading and discovered that feature.

It's a valet parking key, and restricts travel speed to 0.6 MPH.

Now this is clever. Fuel thefts have been on the rise and Ag equipment is no exception.

If anyone has ever worked or know of forestry equipment, the batteries box has a huge wide strap and a key lock there as well.
Battery theft is also a huge problem. In the past 5 years, prices have shot to the moon.
