[AT] Ever have one of those days? :-(

[Dean Van Peursem]

Larry:

To tie this down a little tighter the JD 650, 750 and 850 were sold from
1981 to 1989. Yanmar made them for JD. I own a 1981 JD 750.  A good little
tractor with some weaknesses such as poor brakes and a weak hydraulic
system. The Yanmar 3 cylinder diesel is noisy but bullet proof.

John,
>From about 1983 John Deere made an agreement to purchase the 650, 750, 850,
950 series exclusively from John Deere. Yanmar had to quit marketing there
own brand during this agreement. They eventually  made other smaller diesel
garden tractors for Deere, but have now ended the agreement. I have the
Yanmar equivalent of the 650 JD, it is a a very good tractor.
