We regularly have massive amount of
stock quantity - approx. 800 to 1,500
tractors available as a revolving stock
at 4 locations. For your demand of Used
Japanese Compact Farm Tractors, we do
hope the following information would be
useful and accelarate your orders toward us.
We are in a position to supply all of the major brands of Japanese agricultural
tractors as blow-listed. General availability according to tractor manufacturers
is Kubota : Yanamr : Iseki : Mitsubishi : Hinomoto : Shibaura : Satoh =
10 : 7 : 5 : 4 : 3 : 2 : 1 (approx.)
Basically all the tractors supplied by us are in "As Is" condition
(except special requests). Because of lower pricing for you, no reconditioning
is made on our stock yard side due to higher labor costs here in Japan.
We can supply both of 2WD & 4WD tractors. However availability of 4WD
tractors is getting more than that
of 2WD nowadays, since Japanese farmers have been
recently using 4WD tractors much more than before.
(In other words, availability of 4WD is less than 2WD
in case of older model tractors but that of 4WD is more
than 2WD in case of newer model tractors.) General
availability ratio according to drive type is 2WD : 4WD
= 1 : 3 (approx.)
Majority of Japanese tractors is compact size and small output models.
General availability ratio according to tractor engine output is 10HP -
20HP : 21HP - 30HP : 31HP - bigger is 100 : 30 : 1 (approx.)
Our selling prices to you are not inclusive of Used Rotary Tillers but
only used tractors (without used rotary tillers). However we are willing
to supply Used Rotary Tillers (maximum one rotary tiller for one tractor)
free of charge if so required, subject to a rotary tiller originally coupled
with a tractor being available. (In other words, we cannot reduce our tractor
price even if you do not require rotary tillers along with tractors.)
All of the shipments of our Used Japanese Tractors must
be made on a 40ft. HCD container basis (or rarely on a
20ft. container basis). Approx. 16 to 20 tractors along
with rotary tillers can be loaded in 1 x 40ft. HCD container
(18 units on average), which depends on model-quantity
assortment. 1 x 20ft. container can contain a bit less
quantity than 1/2 of 1 x 40ft. HCD container.
The average of engine hour meters of Used Japanese Tractors would be a
bit less than 1,000 hours or further less, because of advantageous points
(as follows) of Japanese compact tractors used by Japanese small scale
farmers. However some register more than 1,000 hours. Only rarely will
a tractor have more than 2,000 hours (in case of usage for dairy farming,
construction sites, golf course maintenance, etc.) We usually do not check
hour meters of each tractor unless a buyer visits our tractors stock yards
because our inventory is moving in and out quicly and sharply every day.
Here in Japan there are many small scale farms
and each of them have a compact tractor (sometimes two tractors). These
tractors are
used primarily for the purpose of rototilling in
rice paddies. World-famous Jpanese tractor manufacturers such as Kubota/
Yanmar/ Iseki/ Mitsubishi/ Hinomoto/ Shibaura/ Satoh/ etc. build tractors
for this purpose. The tractors used on Japanese small farms are lightly
used since a farmer here can only rotorill once or twice a year (maybe
20 - 50 hours a year only ?). Due to cultural and financial incentives
Japanese farmers used to tend to get new tractors well before their old
tractors are really used very much. Used Japanese tractors are apt to have
little wear irrespective of those ages. Rototiller operations are rather
easy on the power train. The engine and drive train are operated at a constant
RPM and a constant load, hence these tractors have been used well within
their design capabilities. Typically the only sign of age is external appearance
of tractors from the effect of sunshine and exposure to weather. For this
reason, in many cases Used Tractors from Japan is the desired ones with
reliable Japanese quality to purchase !!
For your information, many buyers visit here only once or twice to order-select
tractors by themselves in person and then request us to furnish them with
our offer with photos for ordering their favorite tractors (same models,
similar condition, etc.) without visiting Japan. Some buyers never visit
here but always order tractors based on our offer with photos. Rarely a
couple of buyers visit here every time to order tractors with their own
on-site inspection.
If you wish to buy tractors without visiting Japan, we are willing to be
your buying agent in Japan and hand-pick tractors in person from actual
stocks and then send you Proforma Invoice with photos of tractors for your
purchase decision. For your information, more than 60% to 70% of tractors
shipped out are picked by us on behalf of buyers. It means that less than
30% to 40% of tractors shipped out are selected by buyers themselve at
our yards.
Should we (you) be unable to find enough number of your favorite tractors
at time of your inquiry and order, we are ready to pick some of such tractors
from other tractor stock yards associated with us friendly and arrange
for domestic transport by trucking in order to actualize full container
load.
