    2555 electrical issue

    I need some suggestions. I'm having an issue with my 2555. It won't start but the behavior is pretty weird. When you turn the key to on, I can hear relays under the hood clicking on/off rhythmically. One is the inlet air heater. The other I can't find. It is at the side of the engine...

    255 electrical issue

    Hi, I went out yesterday to start my tractor and nothing. It clicked but wouldn't turn over. I charged the battery. The charger said it was 70%. When I turned the key to on, I hear this ticking from under the hood. I narrowed it down to one of the relays and pulled it. The ticking...

    SS impossible connectors

    I put a 3rd function on my tractor recently and got a grapple. I knew the grapple I wanted came with skid steer quick connectors so I ordered the 3rd function kit with them. Now I'm regretting it. I got the grapple on, took it outsided and operated a few times then took it off as I needed the...

    2555 starting scare

    A few weeks ago we had a week of rain followed by freezing weather. A week ago I went out to start the tractor to clean snow off my driveway. It wouldn't start. The engine barely turned over. I tried a few times and the power kicked out completely. No dash lights. I got out a charger and a...

    Flashing LED light

    Looking for anyone who might have some insight. I replaced an old sodium light on the side of my barn with an LED fixture back in August. It's a dusk to dawn type. A few times now when it gets really cold (20F or below) the light starts flashing; on/off in about 1 second intervals. I have it...

    2555 white smoke

    I just got my 2555 back from the dealer today after its 50 hour service. I moved some gravel, dirt and did some leveling with it. Nothing heavy. I noticed it would occasionally blow some white smoke. It didn't do that before. Any idea what that might be? The engine seems to be running fine.

    joy and sorrow

    I finally got my new 2555 HST on Friday. I'll try to attach some pictures. Overall I'm very pleased. The tractor is a beast! I took it out on Saturday and did a few acres of mowing with the my new EA 7' finish mower. I couldn't be happier with the mower. The previous property owner hadn't...

    5545 blue buttons

    Can someone tell me what the group of blue buttons are for on the 5545 just below the steering wheel? I noticed them at the dealer but forgot to ask. I just pulled up a picture on the net of the dash and it reminded me. I can't figure out what they might be for. Thanks

    Time to decide

    Well, it is getting close to decision time. After all the research, visiting dealers and test drives it has come down to three Mahindra models: 2540, 2555, 5545 all shuttle. I realize that's quite a spread but they are all within $1000 of one another in price. I'd like some input on which...

    Anyone own a 2540?

    I visited my local dealer again yesterday. Drove the 2540 again. I was wondering if anyone had any feedback on them? It looks like it has the same 2.7 liter engine that the 4540 has just tuned differently. 2650 vs 2058 RPM to get PTO speed. How is the 2540 on fuel? Anyone mow/brush cut on...

    4540 mowing

    Hi everyone. I'm still researching my tractor purchase. I'm favoring Mahindra. I've tried the 1538, 2538, 2540, 2555, 3540 and 4540. Of those I think only the 2555 and 4540 are real condenders for me. I know...not apples to apples. The 4540 appeals on a viseral level. It's a beast! Lower...

    kl4010 loader lift capacity

    I'm looking at a ck3510 or ck4010 both have the same loader. The lift capacity at the pins is 1835 lbs. I can't seem to find a spec for 24 inches. What I'm trying to figure out is will that loader lift a pallet of between 1200 and 1400 lbs using pallet forks off the back of a truck? It is...

    ck3510 540e?

    Hi. I just got back from a test drive of a ck4010 gear and a ck3510 hydro. One thing I noticed on the tach was two pto speed markings. I asked the sales guy about a dual speed pto and he said it had an economy setting. He didn't know how it worked. I couldn't tell from looking at the...

    3520h wheel seal leak

    Anyone see the new youtube video on a wheel seal leak on a 2015 3520H? Is this a common problem for these tractors? I wonder why the guy didn't get help from a dealer. Perhaps his dealer closed, not sure. Definitely looks like something that would be beyond what I would want to tackle myself.

    Tractor Sizing  tractor sizing question

    I need some expertise. I'm looking at a property with about 11 acres of open mostly flat land and I'm trying to figure out what tractor to buy. I don't want to get into a brand discussion. I have narrowed it down to three choices (all hydros): Tractor A: larger frame, 35 hp, 4000lbs Tractor...

    15 Series

    Hi everyone. New member. I've been looking for some time now. I stopped into my local Branson dealer a couple of times. I got a chance to see and drive the new 15 series, specifically a 4015R. They are a bit smaller than the 20 series. Not small enough to go with smaller implements. I...
