Yanmar EF312T
The Yanmar EF312T is a compact utility tractor that was made from 2007 to 2017. It's a small but strong machine, perfect for farmers who need help with various tasks. This tractor has four-wheel drive, which means it can handle tough ground and steep hills. The EF312T has a Yanmar diesel engine with three cylinders. It's not a very big engine, but it can produce 30 horsepower, which is enough for many farm jobs. The tractor has a shuttle transmission with 8 forward and 8 reverse gears, giving the driver good control. It also has a power take-off (PTO) that spins at 540 rpm, useful for running other farm tools. The tractor's three-point hitch can lift up to 2,205 pounds, which is above average for its size. Despite its strength, the EF312T is quite light, weighing only 2,028 pounds. This Yanmar tractor is built for comfort and safety. It has an open operator station with a roll-over protection system (ROPS) to keep the driver safe. The steering wheel can tilt, making it easier for different-sized drivers to use. The fuel tank holds 7.4 gallons, so you can work for a long time without stopping. With its small size and useful features, the Yanmar EF312T is a good choice for small farms or as a helper tractor on bigger farms.
