Manuals- Service, owners, etc (If you need diagrams)

Roughshod · Oct 3, 2016

Can anyone tell me for sure if an actual printed Service manual is available for the Mahindra 2538? To make a long story short, my dealer promissed me one when I bought the tractor, didn't deliver on that promise, and now claims that you can't even buy one from Mahindra. I find that to be highly questionable. That said, I know the owners manual is just chock-full of errors, but still, if it exists I want it.

Honestly I can not say enough good things about the dealership Melroebobcat represents... GREAT / Honest folks. Fast Service!! I took my Max28 there once for the dreaded fuel solenoid issue some owners have had... stopped in a few separate times to buy fluids / filters etc.... Each time I walk in (random MONTHS apart) the Service desk guys know me and what tractor I have - by name (and this is a busy / moving dealership). Blown away by that! Melroebobcat and crew love what they do... and are TRULY customer focused!

Thanks Mike! We really value you as a customer and I hope we get to continue to work for you in the future

Funny I have one for my 1538 but it really isn't worth much. It's about the sorriest excuse for a service manual that I've ever seen.

If it's anything like the manual for my 1538 it isn't worth $14.50 or even $1.45 must less $145. It doesn't even have an engine wiring diagram in it.

this would have full diagrams + everything else for major repairs , if you do need it we ship nationwide at bobcat of Madison, Wisco

I have one for my 1538, it does NOT have the engine harness diagram, just the chassis wiring for all the models of 1538, shuttle, HST and cab. It really is a crappy manual and is nowhere even close to the service manual I have for my truck. There is not one part number in it either, not even for the filters. Nothing at all on the engine, nothing, nada, double ought zip. I don't know what other manuals Mahindra may have but the service and operator's manuals I have are both pathetic. Their service manual simply isn't worth that kind of money.

For what it is, Mahindra should put it on their website in pdf form for download and not charge a dime for it.

I can say most other brands like bobcat have a website bobcatpartsonline.com . Cat you have to have a serial number to lookup parts

when it comes to Mahindra I completely agree, one thing I can do is submit your complaint to the national service rep
