1. Peeling Paint

5. Loose Fixtures
6. Signs Of Welding
7. Mismatched Parts And
8. An Overall Appearance And Feel Of Being Weathered. Hence, you might want to be a bit more cautious while examining used tractors with these types of factors and must ask a lot more questions.

 

Decide Whether You Need A 2WD or A 4WD

TOTAL HOURS OF OPERATION
Hop inside the cab and observe the number of hours of operation the mini tractor has performed. On the other hand, diesel engines can go for much longer. In general, diesel engines are considered to still be good at 6,000 to 10,000 hours
of hard work. If they are well-maintained some tractor models can exceed even 12,000 hours and still operate like new. It solely depends on the tractor model and maintenance. Do your complete homework and do not be afraid of a bit larger number of operating hours, sometimes the tractor may still be in excellent shape if the previous owner or owners have maintained it really well.

GOOD MAINTENANCE LOGS
Do review the maintenance logs, inspection lists, work orders, receipts and any other supporting documents you can get your hands on. These documents combined with detailed questions to the seller can offer valuable insights about the history of the tractor, and how often and what types of repairs were performed. It could also uncover potential issues that have not been addressed by the owner!
