5155 Owner's Update:
So, I've had my 5155 for a few months now, and have been working it hard on my property clearing trees. I bought 12 acres initially, nice rectangle property, with a nice stream along the west property line. We are building our "retirement" home (just retired from the Army) and a little hobby farm. My implement I use the most is my Mahindra Grapple. That thing just works! I keep all the zeus fittings greased, and the tractor has run flawlessly. I am getting close to 40 hours of run time on it, starting to consider the first fluid change. What advise can you give, as to how to service it? Should I do all the fluids myself or have my dealer do the first service? I have the Mahindra extended warranty on it, but the tractor has been a dream so far.
Very easy to operate. The Long 3rd Function kit words my grapple like a champ! Still learning how to get the most from my Box Blade, but I'm getting there.
I plan to keep this tractor for a VERY long time.
Oh, by the way, I just picked up another 25.6 acres adjoining my existing 12 acres... so, this tractor will see a ton of light forestry work.
How many hours do you recommend the first fluid change?
Thanks again for all the advice on this thread. These new Mahindra 5145/5155 tractors are work horses!
Cheers!
. So right now I have to fold it down when I put it away. I am in the planning stage for a dedicated shop at my place and it will definitely have 9’ doors. I’ve never measured the height folded down but the operator is the highest point with the ROPS down. Someone mentioned that the prices on the 5145/5155 have gone way up? Color me totally shocked 
. I think the list of things that haven’t gone up significantly would be much shorter than the list of things that have.
