Can't answer specific to Yanmar, but sounds like there could be some linkage out of adjustment.
Try picking the front wheels up, give each one a side to side shake, look for anything loose or worn in the steering linkage. Let the wheels back down to where they just touch on level ground.
Then turn the steering wheel full left, then turn full right, count the turns, then count back to half the number of turns. This will put the steering gear in the center. The front wheels should now be straight ahead. If not, the linkage will need to be adjusted. A simple way to check the alignment is to pull a string off of the rear wheel. Tie the string to the rear of the tractor, centerline of the wheel, long enough to reach forward past the front wheel. Pull it tight where the string just touches the front of the rear wheel, establishing a straight line down the side of the tractor. Then measure off the string to the front and rear of the front wheel. Adjust so the front wheel is parallel to the string. Repeat for the other side.
See if that will get the wheels pointing correctly. There may or may not be stops, but I would think there should be.

Today's Featured Article - Timing Your Magneto Ignition Tractor - by Chris Pratt. If you have done major engine work or restored your tractor, chances are you removed the magneto and spark plug wires and eventually reached the point where you had to put it all back together and make it run. On our first cosmetic restoration, not having a manual, we carefully marked the wires, taped the magneto in the position it came off, and were careful not to turn the engine over while we had these components off. We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
