I just purchased the 2515 H with the backhoe two days ago and six 2824 from Dave’s tractor here in red Bluff California. It’s more than enough tractor just looking at it that I need for my 2 1/2 acre property your video along with others who have purchased the same tractor really helped to understand the tractor. It’s capabilities and feel good about this. Purchase at tractor is a big effing deal and when you’re alone standing next to it, it could be overwhelming also, so I appreciate videos, such as yours that show the imperfections and in experience because after 18 months, I expect to be good also thanks again. Excellent video.
I am so glad the videos helped! The 2515h is an awesome tractor that has done everything I have asked it to do! I hope you have as good luck with yours as I have had with mine! Keep me posted!
@@THand141Homestead Think out of the box..... Go UP, not back. I am a 32"IL but cannot bend my knees for too long. When I first looked at a 2505h, I agreed to a small sub frame, to lift the seat assembly 2" or so, but when I bought mine in 2021 (from another Dealer, with a sharper pencil!) I did not get this done. I was going to do it myself, but the easy fix, is a piece of high density 2" foam, cut to fit the seat!! Problem sorted 🙂
I have a 2021, 2515R with a little over 300hrs and absolutely no issues whatsoever and I’ve been ruff on it. I’ve done all maintenance on it myself. The only complaint I have is that it didn’t come with a cup holder. This not my first tractor and I definitely would recommend TYM/Branson to anyone.
The grapple I have is awesome. The box blade takes some getting used to, but once you know how to work it, it becomes easier. Great tools for sure! Thanks for watching!
It is a GR40 grapple, I have a bar across the bottom, but I take it off sometimes so as not to pick up a lot of dirt and brush with the grapple. I love mine!
Not in the least. Though I must confess I have never had any shoulder problems. you may be able to talk to the dealer to have the lever moved to where you want it. Let me know how it works out for you!
Stay away from these garbages , my 2610h in about 50 hours , front axle leaks. 80 hours now , no crank, looks like bad starter solenoid . Fixing then selling this ***
Oh wow, I am sorry to hear that you are having problems. With it being so soon is it covered under warranty? My 2515h is at 200hrs and the only problem that could have turned out major was a coolant leak on the seal of a hose. Could it be you got a lemon that every manufacturer puts out occasionally? I hope whatever you get next serves you better.
Swivel seal on mine, went at 200hrs and 2nd on the way out 20hrs later. 60mins fix the 1st time, and reckon I can get that in 40mins now I have done it once. I suspect, that the leakage looks much worse than it is in reality, as the oil level drop is glacially slow 😉

Try to keep the rear ballast as close to the ground as possible to keep your center of gravity as low as possible
Thanks for the tip!
Stop hitting things with your knees Tracy! 😂 Great video my friend! Tracy the Tractor Guy!!
I wish I could! If I move the seat back it's uncomfortable to reach the pedals.
@@THand141Homestead yeah I bet. You will find a solution I’m sure

I love mine, just over 200hrs now. I solved the cup holder with this little magnetic one. sovrn.co/25w1r9u
Nice, congrats on happy ownership of the 2515H. This is almost exactly the same sized tractor as my T474. I bought mine in June 2020.
Thanks 👍I hope yours serves you as well as mine has served me!
@@THand141Homestead Yes, not a single problem in 440h.
great tractor. it does everything. i have 240 hours on mine. close to doing my second service on it.
Good to hear. I love mine too!
I am also going to purchase a grappler and a box scraper

Hey, what brand is that grapple? I really like the looks of it.
It is a GR40 grapple, I have a bar across the bottom, but I take it off sometimes so as not to pick up a lot of dirt and brush with the grapple. I love mine!
How wide is the cutter? Looks like 5 footer
The Bucket and box blade are both 5' and my snow pusher is 7'
I am considering the 2515 vs the yanmar sa425, the loader control by the steering wheel does it bother your shoulder?

@@THand141Homestead cool, good idea about he control being moved to a diff location
