6000 forward/reverse grind

You know, I'm wondering if the shuttle shift linkage needs adjustment////I'll check the parts manual later and see if I can find where that lever hooks into and if an adjustment screw/hookup is there (kind of sounds like it just isn't going in all the way (however the clutch should be adjusted as well).

I really do not think it is a clutch issue. The gear shift and the high low range shifter work fine, no clutch issue, no grinding, etc. I would think that if it is the clutch, like you are driving in one gear and then clutch to change gears, if the clutch was not working properly you would expect grind at that point, but I have none, that works fine.
It must be a syncro in the transmission, or something out of adjustment.
I did contact Mahindra through their chat room...no help. I had to answer numerous questions first, and then they told me it is a technical question and wanted to know who my dealer was so they could contact them.

I was wondering if the type of transmission oil being used might help make a different in the problem people are commenting on. I know Amsoil has a Synthetic Tractor Hydraulic/Transmission Oil they sell.

The 6000 uses 90W in the trans/diff and has a separate hyd. res.for hyd fluid. Don't think the hyd/trans oil would meet the 90W standard. BobG in VA

Hey guys, this might help, havent looked in the manual in a while, but i do think it says when checking or adjusting the clutch, when pushing down on the clutch pedal it should move about 5/8" of an inch before it starts to diengage the clutch, so if you have more travle than 5/8" then you might not be disengaging the clutch all the way. Just tring to help, and hope this helps all. good luck.
