Ford/Shibaura 10 compact series (1983–1987) – the middle generation of the Japanese compact tractors in Ford blue: 1110 to 2110, the first digits as size class, 10 as series, A for four-wheel drive
The 10 compact series sits between the 100 series of 1973 and the 20 series of 1987 – the middle of the three generations in which Ford sourced compact tractors from Shibaura of Matsumoto in Japan and sold them in North America and Europe under its own name. The type logic: the first digits order the size in ascending order – 1110 the smallest two-cylinder, 1310 to 1710 the three-cylinders, 1910 and 2110 the four-cylinders of up to 38 hp – 10 marks the series, A four-wheel drive, which became the rule on the larger models. The engines are Shibaura diesels of 0.7 to 2.3 litres at 2,500 to 2,800 rpm, air-cooled in the smallest and water-cooled in the other models; the transmissions were manual gearboxes with up to twelve speeds, the hydrostatic transmission only came with the 20 series.

The register lists 7 versions with 9.6 to 27.9 kW from two- to four-cylinders of 706 to 2,296 cm³, torque from 49 to 121 Nm, unladen weights from 580 to 1,660 kg, lengths from 2,560 to 3,320 mm, widths from 1,090 to 1,560 mm and heights from 1,280 to 2,200 mm.
In North America the 10s are the typical compact tractors of hobby farms and municipalities of their time; their technology lives on in New Holland's compact tractors from Japan to this day.
On used tractors, operating hours, compression and injection, clutch, gearbox and four-wheel-drive clutch, PTO and hydraulics for mower and front loader, tyres count; parts run through New Holland and Shibaura specialists.

What to check before buying
- Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
- Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
- Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
- Check front and rear tyre sizes: mismatched pairs strain the drivetrain.
- Shift the gearbox cold and warm — jumps only show up at temperature.
- Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
- Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
