New Mahindra 2310 in driveway

[DavidD]

I traded my Iseki for a 2310, it arrived today, played...worked with it this evening. It seems perfect for my uses so far. I moved a truckload of sand, moved a few buckets of gravel, and hauled about 15 yds of clay in about 4 hours. I put my old 4 ft boxblade on for balance, and it sure looks small now.{and it's the wrong color...}
I got the new 2310 instead of the 2810 because I liked the smaller tires,{makes the tractor look smaller} and don't need the extra HP.
The FEL is a bushog M246 with a sturdy 5' bucket, much more loader than the 1846QT that was on the Iseki.

First full day on it will be tomorrow, we'll see........

Sounds cool and all, but where are the pictures? [img]/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Worked it pretty hard today moving clay to build up driveway base. I am impressed with the overall comfort of the tractor.
After I modified the seat bracket where I could slide the seat back against the fuel tank the controls all seemed to be positioned well.
I have a question for the Mahindra guys on here though.
While doing my normal pre use greasing, I consulted the book to make sure I didn't miss any grease points since this tractor is new to me. I can't find the grease zirks on the front axle pivot , they are shown in the book but I cant find them.
They didn't even drill the castings around the pivot bushings that I can see. Have they changed the design after the book was printed? If this isn't some type of sealed bearing/bushing, this is going to be a very squeaky tractor.Should I contact the dealer?

I talking to one of Mahindra's Service guys one day, it seems he mentioned that the front axles on their tractors had changed. If this is true then it is certainly possible those zerks are no longer there and they have not gotten the manual updated yet.
