Collection: Yanmar YM1500 / YM1500D

The YM1500 is a 18 horsepower (15PTO HP), 2 cylinder diesel tractor manufactured in Japan and was one of Yanmar's most popular models. It was manufactured between 1975 up to 1979 and was available in a 2wd YM1500 version as well as the 4wd YM1500D version. All of the YM1500 models (2wd and 4wd) use the same 2T15 Yanmar diesel engine. The "D" at the end of some models indicates that it is 4wd. The YM1500 had a design change mid production where the hood changed from a lime green to the familiar Yanmar red as well as a different bellhousing, clutch release bearing design, brake system re-design, and numerous 4wd front axle changes.
