I did see that there a several listings on tractorhouse, but I don't have an account. I guess I will set one up. Thanks

Hello All, I am sadly selling my tractor, as I won't be needing it anymore. I am having a difficult time determining what a reasonable price should be. It is a Mahindra HST 1533 with 400 hours. The tractor runs great and looks good, except for the faded and scratched rear plastic fenders. The...

Hello All, There have been a couple of threads about this, but I didn't see anything that answered exactly what I am seeing. The manual calls for the same oil as is in the transmission, but what came out when I drained it was not that. This is the first time I have drained it, so should be from...

I have a third function valve I want to use for a grapple and need to buy hose to reroute the power beyond. Does anyone know for sure what type and size fittings are on the hose ends for the hose coming out of the power beyond port on the loader valve? I also want to get a confirmation that I...

I usually have to use the prime pump on the second fuel filter to get my 1533 to start if it hasn't been run is a while. Today, I did that before starting and it started right up, but died after a few seconds. Primed again, same thing. If I keep priming, it will continue to run, then die after I...

I need to do my 10 hour break-in bolt tightening and need to know the size of the front and rear wheel bolts and bottom bracket bolts. The only ones the manual mentions is the front frame bolts at M14. I don't live where the tractor does and I always seem to need a size I don't have or can't...

I have a 1986 330 with the Yanmar diesel. Great little machine, but lately it starts losing power and sort of chugging at full throttle after about 20 or 30 minutes. It idles fine. I have thought I had it figured out a couple of times but still get the symptoms. I have cleaned out the fuel tank...

I was shredding Saturday and made a left turn on a gradual downhill. It felt like I was sliding in mud. I looked down at the front wheels and the right wheel was turned in the opposite direction of the turn. Stopped to inspect and the tie rod had disconnected. The castle nut had either vibrated...

I bush hogged about an hour this morning on my 1533 and after I finished, I was idling a little before cutting off the tractor. The tractor started doing a little jump every few seconds. Both the cutter and the loader would jump. It didn't matter what RPM. I seems more like some kind of...

I've had my 1533 for a couple of months now and have a few questions or observations maybe someone can comment on. When I turn off the tractor, there is a hum that continues for a few seconds towards the front, then a click, then all is quiet. Is that an electric fan? The engine heating lamp...

Got my owners club hat today! Pretty nice. Thanks to the forum for putting the word out on that. My salesman never mentioned the owners club.

Can someone with a 1533 measure the inside dimensions of the loader? I am thinking about getting the Titan 60' tooth bar and it is made to fit a bucket with a 60 inch inside dimension. I don't live where the tractor lives and won't be back for a week or so. Also, if anyone has experience with...

I have a new Mahindra 1533 that I took delivery on the Saturday. I was reading the owners manual break-in instructions and it stated to run the engine for the first hour at "100 rpm above full load governed speed". I have not idea what that means. The specs say the governor engine speed without...

Here is the evidence. Not sure why it is posting sideways.

Took delivery of a 1533 HST this weekend. Also got the Mahindra 5 foot standard duty shredder. So much easier than the old Deere 850. Love the HST. Now I can back into tight areas in the woods with ease. The engine seems to hardly be working to move the shredder. It does have a little vibration...
