We Reviewed the Yanmar SM240H Tractor
The Yanmar SM240H is a strong choice for rural landowners who want a modern compact utility tractor with big-tractor capability in a manageable size. With roughly 37 engine horsepower, a fuel-efficient Yanmar TNV engine, and a front-end loader lifting just over 2,000 lb, it’s well-suited to mowing, grading, material handling, and general farm chores on about 10–45 acres.
Key strengths
Hydrostatic transmission (HST) gives clutch-free, car-like operation that’s ideal for loader work and frequent direction changes. High loader lift capacity (around 2,116 lb at the pivot pin) is excellent for a compact machine, making it capable with pallets, round bales, and heavy implements. Ergonomic operator station with foldable ROPS, joystick-operated loader, dual brakes, and good ground clearance (about 12.8 in) balances comfort, safety, and maneuverability for tight farmyards and trails. Long powertrain warranty (reported up to 10 years/3,000 hours for non-commercial users) is a standout for buyers planning to keep the tractor long-term.
Ideal buyer
The SM240H fits the rural lifestyler or small farmer who wants a single do-it-all tractor for mowing, loader work, driveway maintenance, and light field tasks, with premium features and warranty rather than bare-bones economy. If you prioritize easy operation, strong loader performance, and long-term support, it’s a very compelling compact tractor to put on your shortlist. For full specifications.
