Is this typical Mahindra service?

Remind me what Mahindra model you have bought?

4530, I was thinking that it was a 4035.

It takes a couple hours to install the factory remote on a 4530. As long as the parts department has the kit in stock it shouldn't take too long to get one and get it installed. But sure enough if it is retailed some little oddball fitting will be missing.....that has happened to us before on kit. If a part is missing, it delays things a few days if it is a "special" part, and not just some normal piece of hardware. There is actually a bunch of pieces and parts to a factory remote kit. More than you would think.

Dave how complicated is it to add a remote. This has taken at least four weeks to get the correct parts and install them?
AND they are still waiting on a plate?

Dave installed triple remotes on my 2008 Mahindra 5525 when I bought it new.



Slick setup.

Good luck

Nice job Dave. Thanks for the photos flusher. Can you get photos of the incoming line(s) to the valves?

Here are the photos:

The power beyond (PB) port on the side of the FEL control valve (90 degree angle connector) sends high pressure fluid to the control valve block for the rear remotes on the top of the fender.



The white tag shows the inlet connection to the triple control valve block.



The white tag is on the outlet connection.



The hose from the outlet connection is routed from the right side to the left side of the tractor



and connects to the power steering control valve.



Hope this helps.
Good luck.

Dave,
Can these three remotes be mounted on the side of the fender? Just to the left and below the light in this photo.. View attachment 389834
Or would that interfere with 3PH arm movement?

Tractor is done. I have every other Friday off, so this Friday hopefully bright and early. The week of Oct 13th I'll be off work and I should be able to but it to the test. If figure since I'll have a nice new tractor we shouldn't see any snow this year. LOL

Wonder what's causing the major uptick in backhoes all of a sudden?

We finally have enough AR15s and have started on bunker construction
