Frequently Asked Questions
LS MT225E

What is the LS MT225E and who is it built for?

The LS MT225E is a 24.6 horsepower open-station compact tractor powered by a Mitsubishi S3L2 3-cylinder diesel engine. It is Tier 4 compliant with no DPF, no DEF, and no regeneration cycles — which means reliable, low-maintenance operation at Colorado elevations above 5,000 feet. It is built for property owners with 2 to 10 acres who want a capable, straightforward tractor without the complexity or cost of more feature-heavy models. Available at Legacy Tractors in Fort Collins, Colorado.

What transmission does the MT225E use and how does it work?

The MT225E uses a Synchro Shuttle transmission with 12 forward and 12 reverse speeds. Unlike a standard gear transmission, the synchro shuttle allows you to change direction — forward to reverse — without fully stopping the tractor, by simply moving the shuttle lever. This makes repetitive tasks like loader work, box scraping, and baling significantly faster and less fatiguing. A clutch pedal is present and used for gear changes, which gives experienced tractor operators precise control over ground speed and implement engagement.

How much can the MT225E lift?

The MT225E has a 3-point hitch lift capacity of 1,808 lbs at the hitch end and a front loader lift capacity of 1,609 lbs. The 3-point hitch is Category I with hydraulic position control standard. Remote valves for rear implement control are optional — you can add 1 pair (2 outlets) or 2 pairs (4 outlets) depending on your implement needs.

Does the MT225E have a cab or heat and AC?

No. The MT225E is an open-station tractor with a foldable ROPS. There is no factory cab option for this model. If a factory cab with heat and air conditioning is a priority, the LS MT226HC is the correct model — it is the only tractor in the 25 HP class that comes with a factory-enclosed cab as standard. Contact Legacy Tractors to compare both models side by side.

What implements work best with the MT225E?

With 19.2 PTO horsepower, the MT225E handles a 60-inch finish mower very well under most conditions. A 5-foot rotary cutter is the practical maximum for brush and pasture work. Box blades, tiller, rear blade, and post hole digger are all well-suited to this tractor. The loader at 1,609 lbs handles gravel, compost, and light material moving effectively. Larger implements — 72-inch mowers or heavier rotary cutters — should be evaluated carefully against PTO HP before purchase.

What tires come on the MT225E and can I choose?

Yes. The MT225E comes with your choice of Ag, Industrial, or Turf tires at no additional cost, subject to dealer inventory. Ag tires (7-14 front / 11.2-24 rear) provide the best traction for field and pasture work. Industrial tires (25×8.5-14 front / 43×16-20 rear) are wider and better suited for loader work and stable operation on uneven ground. Turf tires (25×8.5-14 front / 41×14-20 rear) minimize ground disturbance and are ideal for finished lawns and irrigated pasture. Contact Legacy Tractors to confirm availability of your preferred tire type.

How does the MT225E compare to the MT226HE?

The MT225E and MT226HE are close in horsepower — 24.6 HP vs 24.6 HP on the MT226HE — but they are meaningfully different machines. The MT226HE uses a Yanmar CRDI engine and a hydrostatic (HST) transmission with no clutch and no gear shifting. The MT225E uses a Mitsubishi S3L2 with a Synchro Shuttle that requires clutch and gear operation. The MT226HE has a higher loader lift (1,965 lbs vs 1,609 lbs), a larger fuel tank (11.4 gal vs 7.4 gal), weighs more (3,007 lbs vs 2,434 lbs), and includes rear remote valves as standard. The MT225E is lighter, easier to trailer, and typically lower in cost — a better fit for buyers who prefer a traditional gear-shift experience or have a tighter budget.
