Introduction
TYM LM55 Compact Utility Tractor
The LM55 is a compact utility tractor produced between 2014 and 2016 by TYM and distributed under the Cabelas brand. Designed for versatility in agricultural and land management applications, this four-wheel-drive machine balances compact dimensions with mechanical robustness.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by a Yanmar 4TNV86T-CR 4-cylinder, liquid-cooled, turbocharged diesel engine. It delivers a gross power output of 55.1 hp (41.1 kW) at a rated speed of 2800 RPM. The fuel system utilizes common rail direct injection, and the engine is equipped with a diesel oxidation catalyst and diesel particulate filter for emission control.
Transmission and Drivetrain
Two transmission options are available: a 16-speed synchronized shuttle transmission providing a wide range of gear selections, or an infinite 3-range hydrostatic transmission for simplified speed control. The machine features four-wheel drive, power steering, and wet disc brakes, ensuring maneuverability and control across varied terrain.
Hydraulics and Hitch
The open-center hydraulic system provides a total flow of 14.5 gpm (54.9 lpm), with 5 gpm dedicated to steering. The Category I rear hitch is equipped with position and draft control, offering a tested lift capacity of 2472 lbs (1121 kg) at 24 inches behind the lift points.
Operator Environment
The LM55 is available with either a two-post folding Roll-Over Protective Structure (ROPS) or a fully enclosed cab featuring air conditioning. The rear PTO operates independently and is engaged via an electro-hydraulic clutch, providing a standard 540 RPM speed.
Conclusion
The TYM LM55 serves as a capable utility tractor for farmers and landowners requiring a compact footprint without sacrificing performance. Its combination of multiple transmission choices and a robust hydraulic system makes it suitable for diverse tasks, ranging from light field work to property maintenance.
