Just wondering what you guys have experienced as a lift capacity on the 3015.The jd guys tell me the 2520 will lift around 800lbs and the front hydraulics and was wondering if the mahindra was equilavent or better?

Much better, are you looking at a used 3015.
The reason I ask is because that model has been replaces with the 3215 and now the 3316 and that has a rating of 1,400 lbs

Rick,
You might notice that he is in Australia. I am not sure what they are using for loaders down there. They are most likely of Korean origin.

The dealer has advised me the loader is a ml435.I wasn`t aware the 3015 had been superceeded as the Australian website still lists it as a current model

It maybe be still available in you country.
But it has been changed to the 3215 and now the 3316 for emissions.

HEY Jason what was the total price of your tractor package. I looked at the 3015 with a 4 in 1 bucket sunroof and industrial tyres, $32 000, price seemed a bit high I thought, kubota, yanmar, kioti could all do me a 45hp for only an extra $2000 to $3000 more, nice tractor though.

Quoted lift capacity for the ML435 loader is 527kg at the pivot pins, they don't give the actual bucket lift capacity.

Here in Australia we have both the 3015 and 3215, haven't heard of the 3316 over here yet, most likely we are being sent the last of the run of 3015 and 3215 that were originally destined for USA, happens a lot with most things, does have some advantages, by the time the new releases make it here they have been out in the USA awhile and any bugs have been well documented, not nesseccarily fixed mined you but a check on the web gives you a heads up on what to look out for.

Total package with industrial tyres,bucket,slasher,sunroof,forks was $30 500incl gst. The price without slasher and forks was just under $27 000incl gst.I looked at the kubota,john deere,branson,case and sota kubota but none of them had the same capacities in the same price range.the jd and kubota were only 25-26 hp in that price range and less capable hydraulics.i do agree a little more money gets alot more tractor in the 45hp range but they stop being compact tractors that you can park in your house garage.

3215 and 3316 are the same tractor with minor color changes.

Some smart guy that works for a loader manufacturer told me the 2615's FEL capacity was limited by the load that it's front axle could handle. I suspect the 3015 would be similar unless they cast it with a stronger front axle. Either way, the FEL lift capacity would probably be similar between the KMW loader and any third party loader.

Ah yes. I have heard of that guy. It's hard to say of they are similar or not. As the OE loader in the states we are limited by Mitsubishi demands. I am not sure if the loader in Australia is considered OE or not and if they are held to the same stipulations we are.

Which would lead to the safe assumption that if the non-OE loader exceeds the OE loader's limits then you may be exceeding the machine's specifications and perhaps looking at some trouble if warranty issues arise.

Mahindra Australia told me that Australia was the distributor for the Mitsubishi made tractors.They use the ml fel just with a different numeric model number.The brochures list them as a genuine acessory and the agents sell these machines as a full Mitsubishi with 3 year warranty.Hope this is correct anyway.

I would agree with that...

If that's what they say, then you will have to trust them. I am only leery based on what Mitsubishi has told us directly about putting loaders on their tractors. That said, we do NOT make self-level loaders for that size which is generally required in Australia. They were forced to source elsewhere.

That was the same reason I was interested, good size bucket and good lifting specs. in a compact tractor and at the price you got it makes sense, unfortunately here in Tassie with the add on cost of freight supposedly blowing the price out to the $32 000, it's not such a good deal against the Kioti LK30 with 4in1 bucket which is $25 500, not as flashy, no HST, smaller bucket and lift spec but compact, has remotes standard and $25500 I can stretch to, $32 000 is out of my budget
