Hi Brian, my old tractor was a Montana R3644HST the Mahindra is bigger all around but the dealer said the HD set up would switch over. He sold me the HDC so I hope he knows that they will work. What should I be looking for if there is a problem with the HDC on the new tractor slow/fast/or? At the time I bought the TnT HDC's I did not know about FitRite. Trust me if there is a problem you will be the one I contact about your TnT set up. Bill:thumbsup:
Bill, to start with, the top link will probably be fine. The cylinders may move a bit faster due to the larger pump capacity of the 5010. You can get some restrictor fittings from me if you want to slow that way down.
To check your side link though, have no implement hooked to the 3pt hitch and park on a relatively flat level surface.
Put the lower draft arms into the same pin hole in the lower clevis's.
Put the hydraulic side link at mid stroke.
With the hydraulic side link at mid stroke the draft arms should be very close to the same height. (within an inch or so) If they are this close, then you will be ok. The best thing to do is to install the OEM adjustable side link on the left side.
Once that is done then you can adjust the left side so that the lower draft arm matches the height of the right hand draft arm when it is at mid stroke.
You want to base everything off of the hydraulic side link being at mid stroke.That way you will have an equal amount of tilt to the left and right sides. If you cannot get the lift arms to match up when the hydraulic side link is at mid stroke, then the hydraulic link that you have will not work properly. The hydraulic side link really should be very close to what the fixed length side link is when it is at mid stroke.
From what I have seen, unequal tilt is a very common occurrence and most people don't seem to worry about it, but that does not make it right.
If you have any trouble, let me know, post some pictures, I will try to help you out. Actually I would like to see some pictures or your tractor and the "TnT" setup even if you do not have any problems or concerns.
I hope that it all works out for you, it sure would make things easier for you.
