I just purchased what I think to be a 1984 Mitsubishi tractor. The name on the side says MTE 1800D. I would like to find out information about this Tractor. Do you know if it is a Gray model ? Can I get manuals for it? How many HP does it have ? Any info will be appreciated.

Kenney,

Here's a little bit of what I know about the Mitsubishi line of tractors........which ain't much.

Mitsubishi Tractor Company isn't very old. They purchased the Satoh line of tractors back in the mid 1980s. Satoh tractors were produced from the early 1900s through 1980. After 1980, all Satoh tractors fell under the Mitsubishi line.

Japanese manufacturers do not use horsepower ratings on their tags. If you can find the information on your tractor tag, it will likely be expressed in Kilo-watts (kW). 14.7 kW = appx. 20 horsepower.

1 kilowatt is equal to 1.3410221 horsepower. To make things simple, multiply your kilowatt rating by 1.341 to find your tractor's horsepower rating.

From what I can tell, the model 1800D is a grey model. The U.S. equivalent is the 180D. There is likely no manual for the 1800D printed in English. However, the manual for the 180D is printed in English, and it is a very close copy of the 1800D. Most, if not all parts, are interchangeable, with the exception of the engine.

I believe the Japanese tractors have different engines. The engine parts will be different. Unless you are needing engine parts, the parts manual for the 180D should suit your needs.

U.S. engines are designated as either K3A, K3C, K3D, K3H, or K3M. I have no idea what the Japanese designation would be, nor do I know why the engines are different in the various international models. For some odd reason, I suspect Uncle Sam has his dirty little fingers involved in this somehow.

You will likely find a manual for your tractor, printed in English, by visiting Ebay.

Try Ebay auction# 320129854983. You might also try Ebay auction #320004943550. Both auctions offer a manual for the U.S. version Model 180D. However, it appears that both auctions originate in Australia. If you can find a U.S. dealer, selling Mitsubishi tractors, he may also be able to find you a manual.

If you need any further information, please ask. I'll do my best to help you in any way I can.

Joel
