Thanks duffer for the input. Checking fuses and following the wire to the gauge (I incorrectly called the sensor the gauge in original post) is exactly my troubleshooting strategy when I can get time to do it. Holiday weekend and kids coming in will probably hinder my efforts till Monday though...

Thanks for the help mwayne. I still haven't been able to get back to the tractor to check it out further. Hopefully tomorrow. Thanks again.

Have a 2016 2538 hst. Was bushhogging today and engine temp gauge quit working. Since I was bushhoggin I thought the wire was probably pulled from the gauge. Back to the barn and let it cool off. Appears the gauge is on right side of motor, but wire was still connected. However did seem to be...

DonRybak, the answer is No, I did not get the issue corrected. When they did the 50 hr. service the tech guy didn't really address the unlevel bucket issue. I had a borrowed trailer and had to get the tractor back home and it wasn't addressed that day. Time was a factor. The service guy said...

I bought a 2538 hst about 7yrs. ago, and selected a Mahindra tractor because at the time they were about the only dealer that offered compact tractor without dpf exhaust and regen system. However, at the time the dealer told me to run the tractor at least 1800 - 2000 rpm to keep the exhaust...

I have a six foot cutter looks very much like yours. It is an "International World Agritech Corp." cutter that was made in Bethel Ohio. Company has sold out years ago according to my research when I was looking for specific info on adjusting the slip clutch. They made them with shear bolt and...

I recently stripped all the old wood off a three point "carry all" in order to redo it. I hadn't used it in years, but recently acquired a 25 hp tractor for mowing and have no specific use for it in fall and winter. The plan is to refit the carry all to sit behind the little RK25 during the...

Thought I would post an update. I've been mowing all summer with the RK25 using a Coroni brand 6 foot finishing mower (side discharge). It's an old mower, about 35 yrs old, but it's been a good one and still going strong. I just wanted to say the RK25 does a great job with the 6 foot mower. I...

Thought I'd give an update to my situation. Been talking to RK shop mechanic, he said unlevel bucket is easy fix, and did mention loosening various loader frame bolts as part of the process. I'll be taking the tractor to RK for 50 hr. service in about 2 months, and he said they would take care...

I had exact same situation when I recently purchased an RK25 and tried to use my Titan brand forks. Just wouldn't fit. I checked around and to my surprise all SSQA are not exactly to same standard. Some are slightly different. I had to grind about 3/8 inch more room in the receiving holes of the...

The bucket on my rk25 is not level, never has been since delivered. I have talked to the local store tractor guy but he can't tell me what they can do about it, just that it would be addressed at the 50 hr service. Anyone have same problem and able to get it corrected? If so what was done to...

Well, I received the step and have installed it and it is sturdy and fills my needs in every way. I weigh just a tad over 300 lbs. and it does a fine job for me. I am not computer savvy enough to put pictures on here but if anyone wants a picture of it mounted on the tractor I can email it...

Thank you medic3720. I believe that step is just what I need, one on order already. Thanks again

Hello all. I have an rk25, I'm old, getting older and stepping up into tractor a stretch for me. Looking for a step or to fabricate one. Cannot use the floor of operator station for mounting one since it is plastic (fiberglass, polycarbonate ??) On left side of tractor at bottom of loader frame...

I just went through same thing last fall when I cleaned up my Mahindra 2538. I worked it quite a bit this past year and it had copious amounts of grease at the loader pins. Tried a few things but had some old Kerosene, put that in a spray bottle and that worked magic sprayed on paper towel and...
