I find it interesting that this tractor, obviously intended for the Asian market with kanji script on the dataplate, happens to have on it’s front grill, in Plain English ...the script ... “SUNSHINE”.
The Japanese are famous for giving colorful names to machinery, such as “Lotus Blossom” for a suicide bomb.
I expect that when they sold this grey market tractor and whoever shipped it to the USA figured it’s headed for a place where no one will look for it, perhaps where the “sun don’t shine”. LOL. (Sorry for the humor at the OPs expense. Good luck finding parts for that thing.)

A while back there was a conversion chart of comparable Gray models and US equivalents.
I don't see the B1702DT listed as having a comparable US model:
