Buying Tips (Used Iseki TG553)
Before export, we recommend confirming:

4WD engagement and front axle noise/leaks
-
Shuttle response under load (smooth direction changes)
-
Hydraulic lift strength and external oil leaks
-
PTO operation at 540 with an implement
-
Tire condition (12.4-32 rear tires can impact total cost)
If you want, tell me the destination country and the main job (loader work, tilling, hauling, etc.). I’ll suggest the best attachment set and a checklist you can copy into your inspection sheet for TG553 units.
