TYM T474 HST Tractor 3 Year Review

A retired engineer's honest 43-minute owner review after 3.5 years and ~470 hours on a TYM T474 HST. He walks through specific design complaints (hydraulic line routing, persistently loose backhoe bolts, a cracked boom weld he repaired for $250, a failed third-function relay), praises dealer support and overall value, and advises against buying a backhoe attachment. Best for buyers weighing TYM against mainstream brands on a budget.

An owner-operator sharing long-term hands-on experience from his own farm, with no apparent dealer or brand affiliation.
