    Max hydraulic series hoses

    I recently blew a hose on my Max 22 loader and called the local dealer. Hose was back ordered so I went to Napa. 42 bucks and far better quality. I’m sure others have posted this fix before, but just in case, here you go again.

    MAX 22 4 years in

    It has been 4 years since I got my Max 22 delivered and I thought some additional thoughts were in order. The Bad first. 1. The paint does fade, not as bad as the older ones, but it is inexcusable in my opinion. 2. Front U-Joint cover design is poor, keeps coming loose. 3. Odd noise from...

    2 24W LED Flood Fog Driving Work Light Lamp Truck Roof Bar Off Road 4x4 UTV | eBay I got these.

    Strange Noise in front end of Max 22

    A week or two ago I noticed a strange noise when I was in 2wd and going at max speed. I went on vacation and was using the tractor today for the first time and pinpointed where the noise is coming from, or where it sounds like it is coming from. There is a shaft that goes to the front axle...

    60" Finish Mower Problem

    Fired up the mower this weekend only to find it smoking like a chimney. I greased the 3 spindles before starting only to find one bearing was ceased up in one spot. I got a wrench on it and was able to break it free and greased it again after turning it several times. Ran like a champ. Never saw...

    Finished hand controls for paraplegic

    Just finished the final version of my hand controls. Took an implement handle off of an old Deere and bent it. The shaft fit perfectly on my old shaft so I just ground off the old pipe fitting control and slid this on with a bit of grinding. Painted it up, dipped the handle in rubber four or...

    Work lights on my Max 22

    I ordered some 18w LED lights I plan to mount on the front of my tractor. I found I did not have nearly enough light while blowing snow and I do use them with the loader from time to time. I am going to take some solid stock steel and weld it into an upside down u that extends 6 inches beyond...

    Mahindra cars are coming

    I was talking with my dealer today when he dropped by my office to do some business and he was saying Mahindra cars are coming to the USA. When he was in India recently he said that is the word he is getting, so he is pretty excited for the future of Mahindra both as a tractor company and as an...

    Max Series Snowblower and soft cab attached

    Well, I am ready. Got my snowblower and soft cab for my MA 22 Wednesday night and everything is all set up. The photo of the cab looks a lot more wrinkly than it really is, the light above tends to bleach it all out too.
