How do the controls compare?
Sit in a 2T Yanmar or a 3T Yanmar and you’re not going to notice too much difference between them. The main controls are identical and are all located in the same place on both diggers, with controls for the hydraulic auxiliaries on the toggle switch on the right hand joystick.
