    Need help with 3rd function for grapple

    I just had to replace my WR Long control board with the relays also. :mad: Obviously, this is a trend and sad there is no warranty. I noticed the new one is updated and is more unitized and sealed than the original one. Hmmm.. wonder why???? fwiw- I bought the replacement directly from WR...

    Why did I buy this thing?

    I have been tempted to replace/extend the dipstick on mine so that the tube is accessible from the top while the hood is open.

    midmower frozen and also pto attachment s stuck on tractor

    I'm going to venture a guess at the gearbox itself went kaput- not a spindle. PITA to get to and doesn't get serviced. But hopefully its just a stick or rock or something like that jambed up. I do exactly as others have described getting the PTO off as well as the other suspension linkage. Its...

    STIHL MS500i

    I was on a waiting list for months, but just picked up my new MS500i. I haven't cut a toothpick with it yet, but I'm impressed with what I see and cant wait to get it out in the brush... Time will tell.

    Mahindra rpm 540 / 2000

    Good call! A "purpose built" and dedicated implement will be far more efficient and convenient than an "all-in-one" tractor can do. I use the heck out of my 60" belly mower with several acres to mow and maintain. It does a great job, but there are tradeoffs that I put up with. I would love have...

    Mahindra rpm 540 / 2000

    The gear reduction is different for the Mid PTO than the Rear. You wont get 2000RPM out of the rear. The rear RPM runs much slower than the mid. The indicator on the tachometer shows you what the drive speed you should be at whether you are running the rear PTO or MID for most implements. It is...

    Ok I feel like Dolly Parton.....

    Lately I have been buying the Kevlar (Aramid) version of the B131 for my Max 25 belly mower. Best price I have found is here: https://offroadbelts.com/product/dd-powerdrive-5lk1340-or-b131k-kevlar-v-belt-vbelt These lasts much longer and at $21.28 a piece its a no-brainer. I've bought...

    Mahindra 60" belly mower

    That sure is a fancy tool! I have an old one of these I bought in the 70's and still going strong: CRAFTSMAN Hand Impact Driver, 3/8-Inch Set (CMMT14104) - - Amazon.com Same kind of deal... has saved me many of frozen screws and bolts!

    Mahindra 60" belly mower

    Yes. If you are talking about the fill plugs they can be a bugger... If they are stripped you may have to add a LITTLE heat from a torch and/or use an easy-out. You can get replacement plugs. As for adding fluid- thats a trick to get the gearbox level in whichever means you can so that it is...

    As the title says I am finally getting around to it; making my loader a little more useful... converting to Quick Attach and adding more implements So the Max 25 has a pin on loader bucket (ML202) So I will first want to add a Quick Attach. Anyone done this mod on a Max 25? What brand? What...

    Oil cooler leak (hydraulic) Max 25HST

    I have owned ol Max for 5 years now this month. While doing my preop before a mowing job I find this little surprise: Now it went against my better judgement, but I contacted my local dealer. Who knows if there would be any warranty, but wanted availability and warranty consideration on the...

    In case you missed it:TBN news

    Members should be getting the TBN newsletter in their email, and this was in my inbox today. I thought it was interesting since there has been a lot of discussion lately about Mahindra dealer growth and expansion and all the other growing pains we are experiencing. I'm personally glad to hear...

    Mowing  Dont ask me how I know

    I should have paid more attention. I burnt up the main gearbox on the 60" MMM on the MAX. The little voice inside my head was telling me there is a service point there, and I didn't listen. I cant count how many times I have had this mower deck out to do maintenance, and been through the manual...

    A little different application for MAX

    Ill bet nobody has done this before with their Mahindra. Sorry for the cross-post but I had to share a bit "unconventional" use of my Mahindra. http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/customization/338136-leaf-vac-chipper-shreadder.html

    Loader  Bucket forks for Max 25

    Looking for pallet fork options on the Max 25 with the ML202 loader. Is there a factory or aftermarket SSQA an option like the 28XL? I wouldn't mind clamp-on type either. What are "Mahindra approved" options? The bucket is pinned on (not welded) but that's not very convenient either. Another...

    Valve adjustment: DIY or Dealership?

    Any thoughts on doing your own valve adjustment? Anybody done it on the Max tractors that might lend some insight? I'm well versed on the process and procedures on many other makes and models of engines. I do have the service manual, but honestly I haven't looked at this section yet. Any...

    Leaf Vac/Chipper/Shreadder

    Think it will work? Looks like I can attach a piece of square tubing underneath the right-hand 3-pt attachment arm of the bearcat for the hitch stinger. You can see the angle of the PTO shaft is pretty sharp when the 3-pt is raised very far so I'm limited a bit on "on the fly" clearances...

    Mowing  Max 60" Mower boot/chute

    Looking for a discharge chute for my 60" MMM. I cant find anything made by Mahindra. Has anybody found something that will work? I haven't seen any postings of anyone collecting their grass clippings to get ideas. I realize some sort of vacuum system will be needed. Although I'm not interested...

    Leaf Vac/Chipper/Shreadder

    I'm in the market for a chipper/shredder. I've also been toying with the idea of self feeding the shredder from the Mid Mount Mower "on the fly" for leaf cleanup in the fall. Perhaps I'm asking too much versatility to do both, but I'm thinking that shouldn't be too much of a stretch. I am...

    Mowing Max 25/28 MMM with backhoe subrame?

    We are ALL Wrong! Now that I have the appropriate manuals and it is all much clearer. First of all, adjustment of the feedback link rod was definitely needed to get my tractor lift arms raising as high as they should at 4.0 inches. Secondly there is a SEPERATE and DIFFERENT drawbar used when...

    Mowing Max 25/28 MMM with backhoe subrame?

    After we just bought the Max to go with the new property, there was an incident. I had cut down the tall grass with the brush hog and mmm a few time myself to make sure there were no "surprises" lurking in the weeds to hit. Then one day, I let the missus in the seat to let her mow happily along...

    Mowing  Max 25/28 MMM with backhoe subrame?

    Long time lurker here since I got the Max 25 new in 2012 . Bought it with Mahindra MMM, FEL, and brushhog. I just love this dang thing, but that's not to say I haven't had a couple bumps along the way! I have added box and a blade scraper, and post hole digger. This winter I ordered a Backhoe...
