✅ Iseki mini tractor: reviews, Sial, Japanese, TXG 23

Description

ISEKI mini tractors are produced by a Japanese company that began producing agricultural machinery in 1927. By constantly modifying equipment and using new technologies, the company sought to significantly facilitate the farmer’s work in the field. Having gained popularity due to the quality of the units produced in their homeland, Iseki’s leaders gradually expanded the sales market.

In 1991, the brand management entered into an agreement with the large manufacturer Massey Fergusson for the supply of engines and spare parts. The high-torque, working units that came off the assembly line coped with the assigned tasks perfectly.

The produced models did not become the limit of development, so after 2 years, together with the Perkins company, specializing in the production of diesel engines, a new improved series of “D” engines appeared. Thanks to this cooperation, the Iseki company began to produce equipment with its own engines, which were distinguished by quality and efficiency. Iseki's company also produces custom vehicles, partnering with major manufacturers such as Challenger. This is the world famous Caterpillar series.

The Russian market is familiar with the Iseki company thanks to mini tractors that help increase the efficiency of tillage of any soil, are easy to operate and are equipped with reliable mechanisms.

The price of new units starts from $4300 to $7500. On the secondary market they are approximately 2 times cheaper.

Advantages of ISEKI tractors

As a result of many years of operation of ISEKI tractors, the equipment has shown its best side. It has the following advantages:

It is possible to use attachments both at the rear and at the front.
The axle designs have been improved, thanks to which ISEKI mini tractors have a small turning radius and excellent maneuverability on the ground.
Small size and light weight of the unit.
Everything is provided for the driver’s comfortable stay in the cabin: air conditioning, heating system, ergonomic control panel and a comfortable seat.
Availability of power steering.
Noise and vibration levels are significantly reduced, allowing the driver to be less tired after a work shift.

Advantages and disadvantages

Over the past decades, branded Kubota tractors have proven themselves to be the best in all areas of application.

The owners noted the successful layout of the equipment, which does not exclude easy access to adjustment and adjustment points, filling necks and docking points.
Due to its excellent traction parameters, the minitractor is suitable for towing trailers and carts weighing 2.5-3 tons on country roads with difficult terrain and hard surfaces

According to user reviews, the first place in the list of shortcomings is the high cost of the tractor and the entire repair and restoration range of spare parts.

Iseki mini tractor

Iseki & Co.Ltd. known as a manufacturer of high-quality equipment for almost 100 years. Since the sixties, it has been producing tractors, which are sold all over the world under various famous brands Massey Ferguson, Bolens, AGCO.

Japan has long been the world leader in the production of mini-equipment. It is the Japanese mini-tractor, as the smallest machine, that is included in the Guinness Book of Records. Thanks to their high reliability and exemplary build quality, Japanese Iseki mini tractors are extremely popular in agriculture and construction.

The beginning of the Kubota tractor brand

The company was founded in 1890, when the production of cast iron pipes for water supply was established in the city of Osaka (Japan). A complete change of activity by the company was carried out in 1920. At that time, Kubota began to develop and produce power plants running on kerosene.

The thirties of the last century were marked by the popularization of diesel engines. Accordingly, the company switches to producing similar equipment. The year 1947 had an impact on the formation of the Kubota company. During this period, the company produces a cultivator capable of cultivating the soil. Agricultural workers appreciated the product, the future fate of the company was predetermined, already in 1960 the first classic tractor was developed and put into production.

The date when the Kubota minitractor was born is the year 72. Feature of the model: 4-wheel drive. For that time, such technology was available only to the United States of America, and only full-fledged machines were produced.

Today, the company's branches are distributed throughout the world. Small tractors are popular among both farmers and workers. Lightweight, compact, productive cars ply the streets of hundreds of cities, and this is thanks to the founder, the Kubota brand.

Reviews of Japanese used mini tractors

Repeating ourselves and returning to the rather interesting topic of Japanese mini tractors, which are usually used, since new ones are not available to everyone, I would like to note and remind you that they all have quite a lot of operating hours.
Consequently, many mini tractors imported from Japan require the replacement of some parts, repairs and routine maintenance. All of you, of course, understand this and the fact that it does not have a guarantee and spare parts for it cost the same as for a new mini tractor. But maybe someone produces similar spare parts. But sometimes no one knows this. Selling used mini tractors is not a new topic. They are also sold in Europe, but with pre-sale preparation. In Germany, such tractors are repaired, the engine is checked and they are repainted. Well, as usual, we have it straight from the fields and cheaper. However, if there are such tractors in Europe, then spare parts can be found for them. True, the price will be biting. This means you need to take care in advance and find out where you can get it repaired. In essence, you are buying from unknown sellers, a pig in a poke, and you will be able to buy equipment that is of little use for use or repair. It is necessary to understand that Japanese mini tractors are quite complex machines and many who buy them cannot figure out the control knobs. Plus, it's difficult to read about them in Japanese. Without knowing the instructions for use, many make various mistakes that lead to breakdowns. Also think about maintenance, because you will need oil, fuel and air filters. Many adapt similar filters that we already have. We advise that when buying a used tractor, remember the problems with old foreign passenger cars. When older cars were sold because they were old, but serviceable, and new ones were sold finished and in need of major repairs. We hope that the collected reviews from the owners will clarify your considerations and you will make the right choice:

03/05/2013, Zheleznogorsk “The “good uncle” (he would have hanged him by the scrotum) brought me a kubota L1-245. Brief description: a bunch of Japanese scrap metal, it actually starts and even drives! I won’t talk about the front camera, which is in disarray, though. can anyone tell me? sometimes it works great, but suddenly it starts slowly, after some time it’s back to normal. But at the moment I am confused by another problem: the rear linkage (mill) jerks up and down almost all the time and has stopped raising all the way. Someone please take pity and advise a novice tractor driver.

03/05/2013, Artyom, Primorsky Territory. Boris Greetings to all tractor owners! Before the New Year I purchased a Yanmar Ym 1700 D mini tractor. everything seemed to be nothing, but I ran into a problem, I couldn’t find a filter for my tractor. I got out of the situation like this! 1. An airy one from a VAZ (costs a penny) cut and installed. 2. oily. I put a spacer under the oil filter and immediately picked up a car filter in the store. Since there were holes for sensors, I installed them from a UAZ with an indicator and an additional emergency one. 3. Fuel. There was a sump filter, I had to remove it and install a regular one. QUESTION for owners of tractors whose engines are NOT EQUIPPED WITH A WATER PUMP AND THERMOSTAT. HOW DO SUMMER BEHAVIOR UNDER LOAD? ARE THEY NOT WARM? DOES THE ENGINE OVERHEAT LIGHT GO ON?

02/21/2013, Kostanay. Ruslan Good day! I bought myself an ISEKI TU 1700F tractor. Something bad happened and the engine overheated. They brought it to the hangar and started disassembling it, the men said it was most likely the pump. We got to the pump and removed it. It turned out that the impeller broke due to overheating. Well, I think I’ll order it, I called the guys from whom I ordered the tractor, they say you won’t find the impellers separately, order the pump. And the pump is not cheap. I would like to ask you if it is possible to pick up some kind of pump from Japanese cars that is identical to this one, or at least more or less suitable for this one. Thanks in advance, I hope for your help.

November 21, 2012, Irkutsk. Andrey The fact of the matter is that there were no problems with Iseki, and therefore there was no need for spare parts either. I brought it through a company from Japan in 2007, at that time there was no tractor boom, only a few were imported. He had a full pre-sale. The paint was a little peeling (original), but over the years of use it didn’t get any worse (I never touched it up). The equipment that I plan to take is fresher than my TU1700. I understand about the reliability of Iseki and Kubota. I think I can decide by personal comparison. Kubota X-20 is already in Irkutsk, and Iseki TG-21 is on its way from Japan. Try the possibilities of one and the other. The power is almost the same, with the Kubota with 4 cylinders producing 20 HP and the Iseki with 3 cylinders producing 21 HP. The X-20 likes the accelerated turn function (without pressing the brake pedal). As for the TG -21, I don’t know whether it has such a function or not. I’ll wait until Iseki arrives and determine it there, but in the meantime I’ll look for comparative characteristics on sites, maybe I’ll find something or someone can tell me.

03/10/2012, Kremenchug, Poltava region. Yanmar1401D Dear colleagues, I have a question. The rubber on the rear has already worn out, or rather is starting to crack on the sides. I want to buy something new, but bad luck. My original Bridgeston size: 8.00 - 16. I've looked all over the internet and can't find this size. Maximum 7.50 - 16. You can choose low-profile ones, but I don’t know the outer diameter of the new native slopes. I realized that the inch designation with a zero at the end means the tire profile height is about 92%. I figured it out using the formula: a tire 8.00 - 16 has an outer diameter of approximately 824mm. At the moment the existing outer diameter (of my worn ones) is 765mm. So they are tormented by doubts about what to buy. There are low-profile Goodyear tires 280 x 70 R16, outer diameter 805mm. Maybe someone has the opportunity to measure or find out the exact outer diameter of the tire 8.00 - 16, I would be very, very grateful. PS Another surprising thing is that the front tires were Bridgeston 5.00 - 12, they also cracked two years ago and were replaced with KAMA 6.00 - 12. And it turns out that the completely bald (the tread has worn off almost completely) Japanese 5.00 - 12 are 8 millimeters smaller in outer diameter than Russian 6.00 - 12. And if you take into account the tread height (around 50mm). I don't understand anything.

05/29/2009, Moscow I bought a Kubota ZB7000 mini tractor, but there is little information from owners of similar equipment. I took my little tractor from Vladivostok (Japanese) and only last week I got around to testing it before taking it to the village. Considering that this was the first time I was operating a tractor, the result was impressive! I milled 1.5 acres of heavy celena in 15 minutes. but there is also a negative point, during work I noticed that the front right wheel was wobbly and jammed. I took off the wheel and found that there was a hole in the wheel gearbox cover and the hub was loose. Further disassembly showed a complete absence of balls in all 4 bearings of the gearbox and complete rusting of this unit - well, the eyes are afraid, but the hands do! I've almost assembled it, I'm waiting for the seals, they promised to do it next week. It would be interesting to collect statistics on what broke and who broke it, Japanese owners, please respond. In my unexperienced opinion (but an engineering one), this little tractor is still quite universal. I think the problem with water is that the Japs are crawling in the rice paddies in the water! but thanks for the warning, I’ll definitely get into the diff and the second gearbox. But I don’t have an electric pump on the tractor; the oil flows by gravity through the filter into the fuel injection pump, although I’m not 100% sure (I didn’t really look at it). Yes, if you are interested, I can send you a repair manual for the 6000, with catalog numbers of spare parts. The truth is that in Khabarovsk the spare parts are probably simpler. In Moscow, I haven’t found where to get spare parts yet, so far the gearbox has been treated with oil seals and bearings, the gears and shafts, although rusty, are intact and not broken. Of course, it was not very easy to disassemble, but I managed! And the link in the first post, a Belgian asks for 350 euros for a gear, probably ate something. Ordering from the factory is not a problem, but as a rule they take a long time.

2.06.2009. Kirovograd region I’ve had a 6000 (different engine and 2″ smaller tires) for about 15 years now. The entire front end also had to be shaken up at once, and not just the side ones - a consequence of the presence of water. As far as I know, this is a fairly common problem. Well, the engine - out of stupidity... Oh, and the electric control unit also grunted. pump - such a fitniflushka-microcircuit on the case. Nothing else broke. If you're not too concerned about versatility, this is a good choice. The machine is quite reliable and unpretentious.

06.06.2009, Irkutsk I have a Kubota B5000 in operation. This is the second year I’ve been working at the garden – it’s just lovely (small, convenient, you can drive everywhere and turn around). The kit included only a cutter. Today I made a double-body plow - it touches my dear soul, it was possible to hang a third body. Now I’m working (albeit on paper for now) on making a potato digger. Question for the owners of Japanese mini tractors: what kind of oil should be poured into the box, since it contains the rear axle gearbox and hydraulics?? According to the manual there should be a Kubota UDT, but we have nowhere to get it. Who is pouring what?

Attachments

Iseki mini tractors are combined with a variety of mounted agricultural and municipal equipment. Thanks to the reinforced hydraulic system, the load capacity of the units can reach 1000 kg. A number of models of Iseki mini tractors have the ability to connect only “native” attachments, which should be taken into account when purchasing.

To connect mounted units, a three-point hitch is used, as shown in the photo of the Isek TU-1700F mini tractor.

Some models of tillers have a two-point hitch, which is not suitable for other equipment. Therefore, to connect other units, an additional attachment must be installed.

Basic malfunctions and ways to eliminate them

Although Japanese mini tractors are famous for their durability and long service life, they require proper maintenance and regular repairs.

Timely replacement of engine and transmission oil, as well as worn parts and components, will ensure the good condition of the agricultural unit and increase its further operation life.

Following simple recommendations will help you avoid annoying breakdowns and malfunctions:

During each starting attempt, the starter is not allowed to operate for more than 10 seconds; continuous starting attempts will lead to battery discharge.
Be sure to warm up the engine, regardless of temperature, this will extend the life of the engine.
Checking the status of your oil pressure warning lights will help you avoid serious damage due to insufficient lubrication.
Driving at high speeds is prevented if the right and left brakes do not operate synchronously.

Owner reviews

Yuri, Kuban:

“I liked the Iseki mini tractor. At first I couldn’t get the hang of working with a mounted three-furrow plow, but you just need to set it up correctly and it will go.”

Alexander, Vladivostok:

“Iseki TXG237 compact mini tractor, excellent cross-country ability, maneuverable, high load capacity, 27 hp, warm cabin, weighs only 880 kg. I work all year round."

Semyon:

“The Iseki TR63F minitractor is an indestructible piece of equipment. When purchasing: 1. there was no rear mirror - it was completed, 2. there were leaks through the hub seals and on both seals in the hydraulic cylinder, but after 3 days of work the leakage disappeared on its own. The cabin and controls are all well thought out and very convenient. Gearbox with 4 gears, maximum 30 km/h, there are 3 modes and a retarder for all gears. This year the soil is heavy due to bad weather, but my tractor made it through the season without any breakdowns. If you take care, you can work and work.”

Description of the Iseki mini-tractor

The Japanese mini tractor differs from other similar equipment primarily in its impeccable quality, which almost no one has yet been able to surpass. The Japanese mini-tractor was created with the expectation of uninterrupted operation in any, even the most severe weather conditions. At the same time, the equipment can work for a long time at the limit of its capabilities without the risk of breakdowns.
