Loader Max 28 FEL Bucket Size

[scruz]

Got a new Max28 a week ago and was curiouse to how big the FEL bucket is of other owners. The spec sheet on Mahindra's website says 54" but mine is only 47" wide. Seems like a small bucket for something with so much lift capacity. Guess I should have paid more attention before I bought it.

Ya it's hard to think a a tractor that weighs only 1850 lbs. can lift 1400. The bucket on my tractor is 54", an will lift what ever is in it. dirt, stone snow etc.

Mine is also 54". Did they give you a bucket for the Max 22/25?

Max 22 is also 50" bucket with loader 202, the factory loader sold with the MAX 22 & 25. The 28 comes with loader 205 and a 54" bucket.

How can I tell if I have the 205 loader or if they put a different loader on my Max28?

Mine has it written right on the side of the loader arm on the outside edge.

Good news. Just got an email back from my dealer and they are bringing me a 54" bucket.

Did they say why you got the smaller bucket in the first place.

Not exactly sure. They said they must have received the wrong one from Mahindra and not noticed the difference.

Here are some pictures of the 48" bucket.
