I still am not understanding this shuttle shift... Do you need to come to a stop before shifting from forward to reverse? I do come to a stop but have read that it's not necessary? True or not?

Well I guess this just sucks but lets face it we all took a gamble and lost. I know our bobcats are kioti's in reality but... We have lost a lot of resale value. I'd like to know what most of you owners are thinking? Are you going to try and dump your tractor or keep it? Rick what is your...

Hello all... I am in need of some assistance with my NAA 53 Jubilee. I recently replaced my PTO with the 1 3/8 " shaft and placed a PTO overide clutch on it. Now when I turn on my PTO with a brush hog, it makes a "chattering" noise before it actually catches. Is this normal? Sounds like...

Was wondering if anyone else has noticed the hydraulic level not reading on the dip stick...? I can pull the dip stick and it won't show a level, put it back in and pull it out and it's at the full mark?? What's the deal???

Has anyone had an issue with the front axle pivot not taking grease? I greased mine, and it was difficult for it to take grease. Then after I did this, a few very hot days later, I noticed that there was a small puddle of what appeared to be oil just under the front axle pivot. I looked, and...

I have a 8tl backhoe attachment. I just got it maybe two months ago....great digger for sure, and yes its subframe mounted. I am putting it up for sale though, too big for what I need....

Hello all...I am just fishing here to find some opinions. I have a 2010 Bobcat CT335, love it by the way, and its basically a Kioti. Are the DK's hard starting and are the engines loud...? As in do they rap until they get warm? I have tons of power but boy is that baby loud when u first start...

Ok I bought a used 60" bush hog rear discharge finish mower. I am beside myself. The guy I bought it from was a mechanic and the things I found wrong are bewildering. I used the mower at the begining of this year, all was fine. I noticed oil pouring out of the counter shaft seal...dude had...

I put 10 hrs on my CT335 SST and so far everything is going great (as one would expect with only 10 hrs). I have to say I am impressed with how well the tractor runs and performs. It has a ton of power and seems like it will do everything I will ever need. From what others have stated before...

Wow a hundred hrs? That is some time...I know on my old tractor I tried to take it easy, never even ran it at PTO speed for at least 50hrs, but I was thinking that these new machines with the tighter tolerances should be broke in in the first 15 minutes of run time. I know that the old...

Just throwing this out there...what has everyone been doing to break in their new tractor? I know there are a few different opinions, run it like you stole it - OR- vary the rpms, put it through a few heat cycles and enjoy? I looked in the manual but I didnt find anything on it, maybe I over...

Well I am thinking of trading in my Mahindra on a Bobcat. I really like my Mahindra, but I am thinking its time to get a bigger tractor. I currently have the 2615 gear and use it for just about everything. It has done everything I asked of it, but now I want to start plowing some of my fields...

Hey fellas, would a bad fuel filter cause bluish/grey smoke on start up? Or is that a sign of something else? I tried a search but it didnt get me very far. I think it is a bad filter, had it in since new and I now have over 330 hrs.... Thanks in advance, oh and the tractor runs good, no...

I cant believe that the problem I have had for three years went un-noticed! I have put two sets of turnbuckles(check Chains) on my 2615. I finally broke down and bought another set, due to the swaying with check chains. I put the new turnbuckles on and found that they would not tighten up...

Does anyone know what the valve clearance is for a 2615? I appreciate any information you can provide. Thanks. S.F.

I did a search on the air filter for the 2615 and found that there are kubota and Baldwin filters that folks talked about....Is there anyone actually using them? If so how was the fit and did they seal properly? Thanks. S.F.

Hey fellas, I have been tossing the idea around about selling my 1953 ford g.j. What would something like this be worth? It is in good condition I guess, maybe fair... Would $3000 be out of line? Thanks for any help you can provide.

Well I havent been on the forum much, as I have been pretty busy. I however did have an issue with my 2615, that is currently being looked at by my dealr. I noticed that on cold days when its first started, it makes a whining noise from the hydraulic pump. Then if you drive the tractor it...

Well, the first cold snap and the 2615 wont start! Acts like a dead battery, which it shouldnt be, I just ran the thing three days ago for at least 2 hrs. I have also noticed that when its cold out, the hydraulic pump makes a rattling noise....Whats up with that...? Any sugestions?

hello all, I just wanted to send out this info, you may know about it or maybe not....I was going to replace my oil filter with the $15.00 Mahindra filter, but did some checking and found that Wix has some filters for the Mahindras. I went to purchase one from our local auto store and they...

Hey fellas, Just wanted to ask a quick question, My 2615 makes some knocking sounds from the bottom of the engine. It has 79 hours on it...is this normal for a diesel? It has been pretty cold here in North Central PA. This diesel thing is pretty new to me, I hope I am just being over...

Hello all, I have a question in reference to my 2615, I noticed the other day when I was plowing some of this snow we just received, after the tractor warmed up a bit, it started ticking. I can't say exactly from where but it sounds like its comming from the engine...any ideas? I don't beleive...

Hello all, I am in the need of some asistance. I have the 2615, and have purchased a rear 5' rotary cutter for it. I have ruined two turnbuckles, and have had nothing but problems with the lift arms hitting the rear tires. I have resorted to using chains instead of the turnbuckles, but the...

Anyone know what the rule of thumb is for bush hog size vs. horsepower? I was thinking of getting a 5' bush hog for my 2615 but am unsure if that would be to big. Also, does anyone know what a good price would be for a bush hog? Thanks! S.F.

I am new to the tractor thing and I have a quick question...What is the difference between a class "A" and "B" tractor? S.F.

This is going to difficult to explain, but today while plowing some snow from my driveway, I noticed some red stains in the snow where I was parked at. I thought that maybe it was hydraulic fluid and searched every fitting on the tractor. When I looked under the tractor (2615 gear), I found...

After looking at all the pins on the FEL, I found no other pin to be misplaced. I contacted my dealer and he provided another pin, which was shorter than the first. I had to take off the BLI so the clip would go onto the pin(temporary fix). I am going to get different pins from another...

Hello Ford owners, I am just wondering what a 1953 Golden Jubilee would be worth? It is in running condition however it is in need of a new paint job. I am also thinking of a full restore job, know any good parts dealer? Sabula Farmer

I am wondering about engine brake-in procedure for the 2615? I failed to see the information in the manual where it stated that the engine had to run at a full load for the first hour. Does anyone have any information in reference to the brake-in procedure? I contacted my dealer and asked...

Hello all, Today I put some seat time in on my new 2615, plowed the drive way and moved some deep snow. The tractor ran good, it started at the first turn of the key. I am still getting used to the sounds of a diesel engine, I just can't get past the knocking sounds that they deliver. For...

Hello all, As you can probably see I am new to this forum, and even better than that I am a new Mahindra owner. I just took delivery of a 2006 2615, gear drive tractor today. AWESOME so far. Its a very nice machine. I can see why Kubota and John Deere sales are declining. If there is any...
