Bought a pull behind spreader LMC ag IPS 200 , it has a poly hopper and stainless steel spinner. What is the best way to maintain it after spreading fertilizer? To keep the metal parts from rusting and seizing up.

Manual doesn稚 really give you much just says use an ethylene glycol coolant.

Anyone know anything about it what it compares to or ever use this fluid in HST tractor.

Has anyone had to replace the bucket cylinders on a 2538. I have two cylinders that are bent, and leaking. The Mahindra dealer quoted me a price of $750 a piece. I took them to a hydraulic shop and they said one was destroyed and one they couldn稚 get apart. He said they cut cut it apart and...

Changed the oil and filter in my 2538 today The book says capacity is 5 liters, however when I changed it today it took 6 liters to get it just below the full mark. Maybe the 5 liters in book is without filter change. How much oil has everyone else been having to use when changing oil in there 2538.

I am going to purchase a disc hiller the question I have is what is the diffrence between the ones with one disc on each side vs the ones with doubles on each side. The ones with doubles cost quite a bit more just trying to figure out if the price is worth it. What size disc do most people use.

For you guys that have rebuilt covington planters, did you replace any of the pipe bushings like the ones on the disc wheel, the presser wheel or the seed pan . I have one I am fixing up and it looks like you could just go to the store and buy some steel pipe the correct size and cut to lenghth...

I have a Mahindra 2538 with R4 tires that I want to use a 2 row planter with. My tires are approx 60" outside to outside and 36" inside to inside. The best I can figure the best row spacing with this setup would be 24" to be able to run in my tracks in both directions and have all rows evenly...

I had a 18x41 metal carport with both sides enclosed to store my tractor and implements in. I see a lot of people around where I live that just leave there tractor and implants outside all the time and was just curious where folks on here store there tractor and implements.

I asked about using a synthetic oil such as Rotella 5W40 and this was the response I got. Which I thought was very interesting, and I am sure just the standard form answer sent to anyone that asks. Thought I would share. Thank you for contacting Mahindra USA. No, synthetic oil is not...

This fluid which is Mahindra brand UTF is made and packaged for them by Warren distribution in Iowa, which is the same people that make the traveler brand for TSC along with a lot of other brands. Does anyone have or know how you could get the MSDS for this stuff. I can't find it anywhere on...

Any of you have one of these on your tractor. Looking for opinions from folks with first hand knowledge. Also I hear people say you will tear up the loader on your tractor but this is from people that don't have one. Has anyone ever tore up there loader using one. Thinking of buying one of these...

I know this has been discussed on here. I had my 50 hr service done on my tractor and the dealer didn't change the Hydro fluid or the front axle. But since the book says to change them I purchased the fluid and changed it myself. Dealer said they put UTF in the front axle on all the Mahindra...

For you guys that have a 2538 how do you tie it down when hauling it somewhere. On the rear I just put a large clevis on the draw bar and attach chain to that. But on the front end there is really no good way to attach chains. I have been using two axle straps but would rather not use them and...

Took my 2538 to the dealer for 50 Hr service. Was told they had quit changing out the Hyd/Trans fluid during the 50 Hr just change filters and top off for loss while changing filters. I am sure they would have changed the fluid if I had said to change it anyway. Just wondering if anyone else has...

Almost time to do 50hr on my 2538. According to the manual need to change all filters except air filters. And all fluids except coolant. I have read a lot about UTF fluids and I have come to the conclusion that I will just use the Mahindra brand fluid. It is the only fluid my manual recommends...

Are these the same fluid. Can't really find any info as far as spec sheet or msds on the Rotella HD. So is it just the Spirax packaged with a diffrent label for sale at certain stores. I know some TSC stores carry one or the other but never seen both at the same store. Thought maybe some of you...

Wondering if anyone has looked into what Mahindras brand of oil and hydraulic fluid is comparable to. It is rather expensive and I was curious if that is because it is actually a very high grade of fluid is it synthetic or part synthetic. Or is it just cheap fluid that is marked up a lot. Wonder...

I have read a bunch of threads on here about this but none seem to fit my tractor. I have a one row planter and a cultivator, I want to use these to plant some corn next spring. My tractors back tires are 16" wide with a 48" center to center, 32" inside to inside, and 64" outside to outside. So...

I got an old Dearborn two bottom plow few days ago. Well today i plowed about an acre with it with my Mahindra 2538 worked best as fast as it would go in low gear nit sure how many mph that is. Everything went a lot better than i thought it would after reading as much as I could about using one...

Picked up this old plow a Dearborn model 10-153. Seems to be missing a couple disk that go in front of plows. Not sure if my 38HP Mahindra will pull it or not. Or if it will even work without the two missing disk. Also what I presume is a cultivator.

My 2538 I got about a month ago. So far very impressed with what this little tractor will do.

My manual list several different preferred brands but basically just says has to meet GL-4 specs. The reason I ask is I had to buy a couple gallons because of a leak and what come in my tractor was not the Mahindra branded stuff because it is red in color and what i drained out was normal UTF...

Had a little problem today pushing some brush punched a hole in the rubber hose that connects the transmission to the pump. No big deal went got one changed it out. Caught the fluid that came out in a bucket what seemed like 4-5 gallons went and got 4 more gallons put what I caught plus the 4...

Here are some pictures of them.

See most people on here strapping tractor down using stake pockets. I have am 18' trailer that has rails and no stake pockets. I came new with 6 tie down points not really a d-rings more like a piece of steel bent in a triangle and welded to the rail. 2 on front corners 2 on rear corners and 2...

Not counting the FEL the book only shows 5 zerks is that all there is I was expecting 2-3 times that many.

My manual list a Final Drive Case (B) API GL-4 gear oil #80 or #90 or Mahindra universal tractor fluid. Where it lists all the fluids and capacities. Supposedly has same capacity as front axle. The issue is I cant find it anywhere else in the book as far as how to change when to change or...

The owners manual states API CJ-4 grade above 77 SAE 30 or 10W30 32-77 SAE 20 or 10W30 below 32 10W or 10W30 Mahindra heavy duty SAE 15W40 It also states it was shipped with 15W40 I figure nobody is switching oil by temperature my question is are you using 10W30 or 15W40. Do most of you...

How wide is the 2538 with R4 tires on it. I know the specs says it is 60" wide but would figure it would be a little wider with R4's. You see these packaged with 5' and 6' implements just trying to figure out which is the better fit 5' or 6' if getting a cutter and box blade etc. seems you would...

I have narrowed down my search to these two machines. Have dealers for both that are close and both are good. So that is really not a concern. I know the Mahindra specs out a little better. And is a little cheaper I guess the question is which one is the most reliable and will still be running...

They both have the same engine made by Mahindra. Here are some specs on HST model's from TractorData. The 2538 is also cheaper. I must be missing something. It is kinda odd that the 1538 looses a lot more HP from Engine to PTO than the 2538 does. I am trying to decise between one of these and a...

What would be the maximum weight or a 5' or 6' disc and 5' mower that these tractors would handle. Want to get the most heavy duty ones that I can but don't want to get one to heavy for the tractor.

I have been looking at tractors for a while and decided on a Kubota 4WD I just can't decide between the l3200HST and the l3800HST. I will be using a 5' cutter and a 5 1/2' 16/18 disk. The question I have is would there be any noticeable difference in these two tractors using those implements...
