I bought the 474 when it 1st came out and I Love it!! My property has wetland on it (FL.) and with the locking Dif. available has gotten me out of a few O.S. situations. Plenty of HP just be aware that it has more A!@ than it has A!@ if that makes since (Almost flipped it picking up things I should not have been. Lesson learned) I had to make a concrete counter balance for the back but if you get the box blade for it, that works as well. All in all, I've worked the crap out of my TYM ( brush hogging, moving dirt, box blading, moving logs with the grappler etc.) and it has never let me down.
Hey tony, would love more reviews on the TYM tractors, loved this video. I’ve been shopping for a tractor for a while, all the brands o have looked at, I have decided on the TYM394, as soon as my home is done I will be visiting Sean, I have already spoken to Smith industries and gave me a fantastic price on a machine, can’t wait to do business with them, keep up the great work tony and more tym reviews would be greatly appreciated .....
Good day Sir, nice tractor in deed !!! Yes everything is very nice to see around the tractor engine bay !!! Nice little bird at the end !!! Thank you for your video Sir Cheers !!!
Hey Tony - man you have been a traveling man lately. Saw Hank working you hard fixing a semi and now you are up in NC. Great review. Smiths enterprises are great people. Bought my T394 from them last Nov. Don't get to work with it as much as I would like cuz my property is 3 hours away from my home in Charleston, SC. Do go every chance I get. Thanks for sharing and have a great day!
They really fine tuned this tractor. Great machine Tony. I'll have to check this tractor out. So far what you've shown us makes me want one. Thanks buddy.
I have never had any problems getting parts. John Deere dealers use to say, you can't get parts for Kubota. I walked in to my dealer last week and picked up every part I needed for my service. All on the shelf. I broke my brake light switch when a big limb pushed into it. Ordered and it was there in 4 days. The main thing is, I have not needed many parts.
@@TonysTractorAdventure I am not addressing Kubota I am addressing TYM. There is a lot of talk from customers and former dealers that TYM has had parts availability problems. Are you saying that is not true?
I am saying TYM's supply chain is as good as any brand. Every brand has had parts slow downs during the virus. I think it is over for most all brands as they have put new processes in place. Please remember, you are just talking with a guy here, and your comment about Kubota came across as you being a butt. I do not work for TYM. I do demo their tractors from time to time and I really like them.
Wow, this tractor is very similar to the features of my Kubota B2650 cab. It has several extra or added things my tractor doesn't have as standard or even as an option. Very nice.
I have the 394 Cab and wouldn't trade it for anything.. except for another TYM. Only thing I want to change is putting 2 or 3 inch rear wheels spacers on it. I use it around my property here in Fl which is full of heavy brush and many 90' tall pain in the butt sand pines that snap in half at 20 mph winds. We have a bucket, root grapple, front mounted TB1 brush Hog, 6 ft. Yard/Landscape Rake, Woodland Mills WC68 wood chipper, and a 3 Point Quick Hitch
I could not find anywhere where there is non tym part numbers for the filter for a TYM T474 hst mostly because it has the kukje 4 cylinder engine and not yanmar so I did a lot of searching and here are the parts for maintenance. Hydraulic filter: (wix 51586). Oil filter: (wix 51334). Air filter: (stp sa9269). Fuel filter (manual says it’s a rinse. Haven’t gotten a part number for this yet). Hope this helps!
So Tony. A TYM Cab Tractor that will lift 2500-3000 lbs in the loader 4 WD. Which Tractor would that be? Thanks Mark. We do retaining walls, driveways, clear brush, retention ponds , grading etc...
A TYM T654 or T754. I just got to go over a T754 the other day. Pretty much a beast of a tractor, though I am not sure a skid steer would be more what you need. The tractor is much more versial, but this is a big tractor.
I have a T503 and have to say I've liked it up to recently. Actually I still do, it's the customer service parts I'm hating. I've heard the horror stories but now I'm living them. My dealer closed a couple years after I purchased mine. Recently the ignition switch started acting up. It doesn't return to run properly leaving me without any accessories, (gauges, radio, air etc.). You can play with it and usually get it to come in but it's getting harder and harder, last time I started it after putting in a new battery it was near impossible to get engaged. I've got a list of four dealers within 250 miles of me none of whom even seem to care about selling a switch or helping a new customer. I have been left with the last one who told me they didn't have one, there's none in the parts warehouse, they will have to have shipped from South Korea, looking at maybe two months. No way of verifying so I could wait two months to maybe find out everything go lost in the mail. I don't know, the tractors are nice and you can save a lot of money but if you really rely on your tractor I don't know that any foreign made tractor especially a TYM is worth the money if their not going to back them and their customers up.
I don't mean to make light of your situation, but there is a pandemic going on around the world. Every tractor brand is having trouble getting parts. Reach out to me through my web page and I will try to help.
@@TonysTractorAdventure ok but was just telling u what a guy said about his Tym t474 tractor/ Ha I know that u are doing Tym Tractor's but just look up this Tractor massey ferguson 1740m and tell me u think, Thanks
I think the size and weight of T474 would be a great around the farm tractor and the cab would make it a go to Tractor all year around for light to medium utility work. The newest model comes with telescoping 3pt hitch.
So just bought 23acres down in Tennessee, my question is what size TYM would you recommend to handle that size property? I'm new to this and trying to learn as much as I can before I make the move down and have to manage my property.
@@TonysTractorAdventure well for soil not 100% sure haha its mostly that tennessee red clay kind of soil and il be using the tractor to mow (bush hog) its got some hills and some flats...
Does this have DPF system where there is an OBDII or is it all mechanical like the Branson 3515? I am looking for a new tractor (first tractor owner) but I don't want to deal with electronics (I already do day on my cars, don't need that on my tractor) I was leaning toward the Branson 3515, but then since TYM bought Branson, not sure what's going to happen to that brand. Is the cab worth the additional cost? I live in northern NH where we average over 100" of snow a year, so the sound of a heated cab sounds amazing, not sure it is worth an additional 10K or whatever it costs. I've narrowed my selection to TYM 474, Branson 3515h or Yanmar SA425DHX.
Branson is TYM. TYM bought the whole company. The T474, T494, T574 use a mechanical engine with a Regen system on top. It could be removed if needed. My T474 has not gone through Regen in 250 hours. It has never given me the first problem.
Maybe I missed it, but what are those two black buttons on the left rear fender? Is that to move the tractor outside of the cab like a 4 Series John Deere?
Tony, do you think TYM tractors have a competitive advantage over other famous brands of small tractors? Then I wonder why. And the A/C function of other tractors is not good? Tony, I really want to hear what you think.
I think TYM is doing things the way many of the old famous brands use to do. They are making heavy well made tractors at a value. The cab tractors I have used have excellent A/C; however, if it is a 100 degrees outside, no tractor will freeze you out. To much glass.
I think a cab tractor would look much nicer on your property. I think you need to talk to mama and explain how the cab tractor will protect you from insects and bees/hornets. Plus, it keeps you out of the dangerous heat, she should be willing to get that tractor just so she will be able to keep you safe and sound for years to come.
Nice video, nice tractor. Tractor business has to be a tough market. A lot of nice options out there making it hard to decide which brand, which model and so on. A guy could have an anxiety attack trying to decide lol.
Hey Tony - what is your feeling about the stability between the 474 and the 574 sitting beside the 474? I know the center of gravity is going to be higher on 574 but it is also wider with wider tires. When you were sitting in the 474 you look pretty low since the rear wheels on the 474 are relatively small.
The T574 crosses over to a utility tractor IMO. The T474 is a compact utility Tractor. They both have their own place depending on what you want to do.
One other thing to consider is the weight. Yeah this tractor has the same engine as the 494 but weighs about 600 lbs less. Isn't that a consideration when you need to get the power to the ground? The 494 also lifts about 1200 more lbs at 24 inches than the 474.
The 494 is in another class of tractor. It is much bigger and heavier. It also cost more. The T494 is on the same tractor frame as the T554. I am not sure why they numbered it that way. The T494 is an awesome tractor too. I still say the T474 is one of the best bang for the bucks in its size of tractor. I want one. LOL. Especially with the cab. We have some hot hot summers here in TN. So much humidity and pollen.
@@TonysTractorAdventure Isn't that something to consider though - the weight? I have always heard tractors need weight to get the power to the ground. Kind of like a car with a lot of HP - if it just sits there and spins what good is all that HP. I guess it comes down to what you plan on doing with it. I think the 574 and 494 have the same frame - same size tires anyway. All the other specs are the same that i can see.
The first thing every potential purchaser should do is ask, what am I going to do with the tractor. Size the tractor to the job, but there is always a bigger tractor. Find what will fit your job, then look at the different brands, and then find the best fit that your budget will allow. I know one guy who bought a 40hp Tractor with only 2 1/2 acres of land just so he could have a bigger tractor than his neighbor. He never uses it. He should have bought a subcompact tractor like the T224. That would have been perfect for him.
I wish I would have asked about the width. They have the width listed on their site, but I was looking at a branson and it was actually wider than the site listed. If you are around any more of the TYMs how about measuring the width
All tractor companies list the width of the tractor with R1 tires. Most tractor companies sell their tractors with R4 tires that are wider. Width changes depending on which rim/tire they use. Equipment height changes too. Between the TYM and Branson, they are so close, I think a person would be happy with either tractor.
Hey Tony - where the is the 3 point lever located on the T474 and T574? Someone who had looked at the TYM mentioned that the 3 point lever is really low - like on the floor.
Many people don't understand how to operate a bigger tractor. You set in the seat turned to the right a little watching what is going on in front of you and behind you. While you are turned to the right it is easier for the levers to be set back some. Most all larger tractors are this way.
I guess a good question to ask is would you buy 1 and put it to work? People are very loyal to JD and Kubota however I wouldn't pay the extra 15 thousand to have one. Dealer network and service would be a concern for me as I don't know of one close bye. But looks like a well built Tractor. Thanks for the video. Mark.
Mark, I would buy one. TYM makes a solid looking Tractor. I have been researching them hard now. I talked with three dealers, and hundreds of owners. They all like them. They are not frilly with a lot of extras, but they're made well where it counts. They are growing fast. Again, I would buy one.
@@TonysTractorAdventure I'm looking for a cab Tractor. I have asthma and the exhaust along with dirt and debris is killing me. I think I would buy one as well. However I made my last Tractor payment last week. My LS 33 HP has been bulletproof. I can honestly say 4 years and 375 hours trouble free. Thanks for the response.
Hello would you happen to know the PTO HP rating for the 474 HST? The literature available on TYM website has PTO HP listed for the shuttle shift. If I am correct the available PTO HP is typically lower in the HST models. Enjoy your videos. Thanks
Actually found the spec. regarding the PTO HP of the T474 HST on a brochure from the dealer. It has the HST PTO at 32.3 HP. I find that a gross engine HP of 48.3 HP which translates to 32.3 HP on HST to be a significant drop. I would expect to see 9-10 PTO HP drop for HST from Gross. Makes me wonder how efficient the transmission is.
I am pretty sure that is wrong. They use the same Tractor frame as that the 37 engine was on. That is the PTO HP it shows too. I don't think the literature has caught up with the new treasure. I will reach out to a friend who works at TYM
Thank you sir for getting that clarification. That sounds more reasonable and in line with expectations. Now hopefully they’ll update the literature to reflect. Thanks again!
I would and still may in the future. Looking over the market, in my opinion, the TYM T474 is one of the best values out there. After studying TYM, I found they are stable and one of the largest tractor manufacturers in the world.
Any idea if a lever stop is available for the 3 pt. lever so that it can be lowered and raised to same location? I see this feature on quite a few tractors and seems like it would work well for box blade work etc. Thanks.
You are correct. After going to look it does have numbers but the number line is so far away from the lever you can’t see it when in the tractor seat, at least on my tractor it is. Guess I can use tape to copy over the numbers so they will be visible from the seat while operating.
I have a tym 474 tractor with 24hrs. On it and the starter is bad. It hung into the flywheel and burned the starter up. Left me sitting with no way to start it
I know this doesn't make you feel better, but TYM doesn't make the starter. The company that makes them also makes starters for almost half of the other brands. I hate that you are going through that but it happens.
I realize tym doesn't make the starter but I feel they should get a starter to me as the tractor is now useless. They don't have parts available for problems like this. Right now I am sorry I purchased this machine. Because of the parts inevitability.
I have broken a few things on my tractor. I was always able to get parts within a few days. It may be a dealer issue. Reach out to me on my website through the contact page. I know a lot of TYM people.
It is way more complicated than that. Just like a car, it cost more in some place and less in others based on the location. If you are interested in the price give the dealership a call. We never give prices on our channel. These videos stay out here for ever and prices change often.
They are putting the telescoping links on the new ones. He can get it for this one too. It sounds fine in person. The microphone is focused on my voice.
@@TonysTractorAdventure I just thought the hydro was pretty noisy especially when you did an abrupt stop and start around 7:20. That 574 makes the 474 look small. I guess that 574 is way too big to use around the house?
@@311hitwall it sounds like every other Hydrostatic transmission to me in person. Plus it is brand new and tight. I loved the feel of it in person. The T474 is a capable tractor. It would be a bit much for the yard, but great for a 40 acre farm. Even some special purpose applications. I did a lot more videos of it moving around, but I forgot to turn my microphone on.
@@TonysTractorAdventure My brother has a NH TC40 from 2003 and I guess it is prob around the same size. He uses it to plug the yard, etc and I have seen what he can do with the tractor so I keep telling myself if I get something smaller I will regret it - lol. Plus when you get to the smaller tractors they don't have some of the same features. I just hate to have $20K+ tied up in something that sits there most of the year.
Things to think about. The smaller T224 will mow in wetter conditions with less damage to the soil and grass. The T474 will damage grass in tight turns. If you have a big 5 acre yard to mow in straight lines, maybe a big tractor. I look at what the primary job is. The smaller tractor may make bigger none primary jobs take longer, but they don't come around as often. I wish the T264 came with an AC Cab.
Thank you to Smith's Enterprise for letting me check out this tractor.
Great folks at Smiths Enterprise, excellent customer service and they’ll be there for you after the purchase.
They are awesome people
Such a value in these tractors! Exciting to get into mine and start working
I bought the 474 when it 1st came out and I Love it!! My property has wetland on it (FL.) and with the locking Dif. available has gotten me out of a few O.S. situations. Plenty of HP just be aware that it has more A!@ than it has A!@ if that makes since (Almost flipped it picking up things I should not have been. Lesson learned) I had to make a concrete counter balance for the back but if you get the box blade for it, that works as well. All in all, I've worked the crap out of my TYM ( brush hogging, moving dirt, box blading, moving logs with the grappler etc.) and it has never let me down.
This video is a couple years old. I have had my T474 for about one and a half years. Check this video out. ua-cam.com/video/SkAMK36wzEI/v-deo.html
Nice video, probably going to be my first tractor. Thanks for all the videos you do, I’m learning from them and enjoy them.
I love the T474. I wish I could have a cab, but I would bust the glass out in a day.
Hey tony, would love more reviews on the TYM tractors, loved this video. I’ve been shopping for a tractor for a while, all the brands o have looked at, I have decided on the TYM394, as soon as my home is done I will be visiting Sean, I have already spoken to Smith industries and gave me a fantastic price on a machine, can’t wait to do business with them, keep up the great work tony and more tym reviews would be greatly appreciated .....

Yes sir. I went to NC, then SC and then FL. 14 days and 2k miles.
They really fine tuned this tractor. Great machine Tony. I'll have to check this tractor out. So far what you've shown us makes me want one. Thanks buddy.

I know one guy who bought a 40hp Tractor with only 2 1/2 acres of land just so he could have a bigger tractor than his neighbor. He never uses it. He should have bought a subcompact tractor like the T224. That would have been perfect for him.
@@TonysTractorAdventure Yeah some people have more ego or money than they have sense.
You made me laugh when I read this, and it is so true.
Lots of small tractors now have A/C but will it blow cold air when it's a hundred degrees outside.
Yes it will. I was just out last week running the rotary cutter in 100 degrees. The TYM T474 ac will freeze you out.
I wish I would have asked about the width. They have the width listed on their site, but I was looking at a branson and it was actually wider than the site listed. If you are around any more of the TYMs how about measuring the width
All tractor companies list the width of the tractor with R1 tires. Most tractor companies sell their tractors with R4 tires that are wider. Width changes depending on which rim/tire they use. Equipment height changes too. Between the TYM and Branson, they are so close, I think a person would be happy with either tractor.
How is the backhoe operator position, is it tight with the enclosed cab?
The backhoe sets behind the tractor on a separate frame. The seat has plenty of room.
Hey Tony - where the is the 3 point lever located on the T474 and T574? Someone who had looked at the TYM mentioned that the 3 point lever is really low - like on the floor.
It is on the right side by the seat. I found it to fit very well.
Many people don't understand how to operate a bigger tractor. You set in the seat turned to the right a little watching what is going on in front of you and behind you. While you are turned to the right it is easier for the levers to be set back some. Most all larger tractors are this way.
I guess a good question to ask is would you buy 1 and put it to work? People are very loyal to JD and Kubota however I wouldn't pay the extra 15 thousand to have one. Dealer network and service would be a concern for me as I don't know of one close bye. But looks like a well built Tractor. Thanks for the video. Mark.
Mark, I would buy one. TYM makes a solid looking Tractor. I have been researching them hard now. I talked with three dealers, and hundreds of owners. They all like them. They are not frilly with a lot of extras, but they're made well where it counts. They are growing fast. Again, I would buy one.
@@TonysTractorAdventure I'm looking for a cab Tractor. I have asthma and the exhaust along with dirt and debris is killing me. I think I would buy one as well. However I made my last Tractor payment last week. My LS 33 HP has been bulletproof. I can honestly say 4 years and 375 hours trouble free. Thanks for the response.
Hello would you happen to know the PTO HP rating for the 474 HST? The literature available on TYM website has PTO HP listed for the shuttle shift. If I am correct the available PTO HP is typically lower in the HST models. Enjoy your videos. Thanks
I am not sure. As I remember, it doesn't drop much. The new HST are more efficient.
Actually found the spec. regarding the PTO HP of the T474 HST on a brochure from the dealer. It has the HST PTO at 32.3 HP. I find that a gross engine HP of 48.3 HP which translates to 32.3 HP on HST to be a significant drop. I would expect to see 9-10 PTO HP drop for HST from Gross. Makes me wonder how efficient the transmission is.
I am pretty sure that is wrong. They use the same Tractor frame as that the 37 engine was on. That is the PTO HP it shows too. I don't think the literature has caught up with the new treasure. I will reach out to a friend who works at TYM
I talked with my TYM Rep friend today. The HST T474 has 41 rear PTO HP. It will drop a couple more with the AC on.
Thank you sir for getting that clarification. That sounds more reasonable and in line with expectations. Now hopefully they’ll update the literature to reflect. Thanks again!
Is it possible to attach front PTO there?
I am not familiar with a front PTO tractor in the USA. Europe has front PTOs. They make sense, but I don't know why they didn't catch on.
Hi Tony would you get one for yourself??
I would and still may in the future. Looking over the market, in my opinion, the TYM T474 is one of the best values out there. After studying TYM, I found they are stable and one of the largest tractor manufacturers in the world.
Any idea if a lever stop is available for the 3 pt. lever so that it can be lowered and raised to same location? I see this feature on quite a few tractors and seems like it would work well for box blade work etc. Thanks.
I think it has numbers.
You are correct. After going to look it does have numbers but the number line is so far away from the lever you can’t see it when in the tractor seat, at least on my tractor it is. Guess I can use tape to copy over the numbers so they will be visible from the seat while operating.
I will look into it. What size is your tractor
Hi forgot to ask u what is the PTO Hp on the tymt 474 Tractor hst??
The TYM Territory Manager told me it is 39 HP.
@@TonysTractorAdventure Thanks hope u are having a Bless day
Ok But They Told me that the Tymt 474 Tractor's pto is 35.9
Go with them
at least, let us hear it run!
I have hundreds of videos with tractors running.
@@TonysTractorAdventure I was watching this video not the others.
Bless you heart.
Can u get the r14 tires with this tractors
Not from the dealer, but they can be bought direct from the company.
I have a tym 474 tractor with 24hrs. On it and the starter is bad. It hung into the flywheel and burned the starter up. Left me sitting with no way to start it
I know this doesn't make you feel better, but TYM doesn't make the starter. The company that makes them also makes starters for almost half of the other brands. I hate that you are going through that but it happens.
I realize tym doesn't make the starter but I feel they should get a starter to me as the tractor is now useless. They don't have parts available for problems like this. Right now I am sorry I purchased this machine. Because of the parts inevitability.
I have broken a few things on my tractor. I was always able to get parts within a few days. It may be a dealer issue. Reach out to me on my website through the contact page. I know a lot of TYM people.
how much roughly is the tractor?
I never talk prices on the channel. Things change to often that I don't know about. Best to just call a dealership.
My doctor told me to get in shape i said round is a shape a hole lol
That is a fact my friend.
Why,why,why is it these review videos never tell you the PRICE ! It’s got this....it’s got that.... how much is it???
It is way more complicated than that. Just like a car, it cost more in some place and less in others based on the location. If you are interested in the price give the dealership a call.
We never give prices on our channel. These videos stay out here for ever and prices change often.
I noticed that 474 doesn't have telescoping links like the one at the show. Not liking the way that hydro sounds.
They are putting the telescoping links on the new ones. He can get it for this one too. It sounds fine in person. The microphone is focused on my voice.
@@TonysTractorAdventure I just thought the hydro was pretty noisy especially when you did an abrupt stop and start around 7:20. That 574 makes the 474 look small. I guess that 574 is way too big to use around the house?
@@311hitwall it sounds like every other Hydrostatic transmission to me in person. Plus it is brand new and tight. I loved the feel of it in person. The T474 is a capable tractor. It would be a bit much for the yard, but great for a 40 acre farm. Even some special purpose applications. I did a lot more videos of it moving around, but I forgot to turn my microphone on.
@@TonysTractorAdventure My brother has a NH TC40 from 2003 and I guess it is prob around the same size. He uses it to plug the yard, etc and I have seen what he can do with the tractor so I keep telling myself if I get something smaller I will regret it - lol. Plus when you get to the smaller tractors they don't have some of the same features. I just hate to have $20K+ tied up in something that sits there most of the year.
Things to think about. The smaller T224 will mow in wetter conditions with less damage to the soil and grass. The T474 will damage grass in tight turns. If you have a big 5 acre yard to mow in straight lines, maybe a big tractor. I look at what the primary job is. The smaller tractor may make bigger none primary jobs take longer, but they don't come around as often. I wish the T264 came with an AC Cab.
Borderline chubby guy. Too funny. Nice review.
I am no longer boarder line, my friend. I make a nice ballast for a tractor now. LOL!
Your "chubby side" is NOT a "probably" situation, sorry buddy.
That is so weak! You have to do better than that.
