A highlighted cell wins its row on the rule named above the table: more power, lift, capacity or flow, or a lower price. A lift row is left unwon whenever the two makers measured in different places, or where either of them did not say — a figure quoted at the pivot pin and one quoted 500 mm ahead of it describe the same loader and differ by roughly a third, so ranking them against each other would invent a result. Prices are typical list and move with dealer packages.
From owner discussion and long-term write-ups
What owners of each one say
TYM T474
What they like
- A four-cylinder 2,286 cc engine in a compact frame, which runs smoother under a PTO load than the three-cylinder machines around it
- An external lever lets you adjust rear attachments standing beside the tractor rather than from the seat
- Cruise control standard, and 9.0 gal of fuel
- The TX47 loader lifts 2,152 lb at the pivot point
- 12 x 12 mechanical shuttle with 4WD and hydrostatic steering standard
What they complain about
- TYM publishes no price - every model page ends at Request a Quote, and no two independent dealers quote a bare tractor, so the figure here would have to be invented
- 35.9 PTO hp from 48.3 gross is a 74 percent driveline figure - the worst ratio of any TYM compact, and 12 horsepower disappear between the flywheel and the shaft
- 2,690 lb of hitch lift at 48 hp, against 3,306 lb on the 30 hp 3015 in the same series
- 7.7 gpm of implement flow, the same pump the 30 hp 3015 uses
- One standard remote valve
- Hitch lift falls to 1,764 lb measured 24 in. behind the link ends, a 34 percent drop
- No hydrostatic build is offered, only the 12 x 12 mechanical shuttle
TYM 4820
What they like
- 11.4 gpm of implement flow, 48 percent more than any Series 3 tractor, which is what a grapple or a snowblower chute actually needs
- 3,306 lb of hitch lift with a 16 x 16 synchromesh shuttle standard and a 4-range hydrostat offered
- The BL200 loader lifts 2,701 lb at the pivot point, 500 lb more than the BL150 on the smaller frame
- 11.8 gal of fuel, well up on the 7.1 gal the Series 3 tractors carry
- Up to four optional remote valves
- 540 and 750 rpm rear PTO speeds
- Naturally aspirated - no turbo, no particulate filter, no regeneration
What they complain about
- TYM publishes no price - every model page ends at Request a Quote, and no two independent dealers quote a bare tractor, so the figure here would have to be invented
- 38.4 PTO hp from 48 gross is an 80 percent driveline figure, respectable but not what the bigger frame promises
- All remote valves are optional; none is standard
- Category I hitch despite 3,306 lb of lift, which limits what will pin up
- Hitch lift falls to 2,425 lb measured 24 in. behind the link ends
- 3,831 lb and a 71.1 in. wheelbase make it too big for the sort of yard a sub-compact handles
