3-Point Hitch Mahindra 2565 3-point problems

[Hayboy83]

I have a 2016 cab 2565 and my dad told me that the 3-point hitch is stuck. That's all the details I have, wish I had more. It's at our property 2 hours away so I'll keep y'all posted. Anyone else have this problem? Maybe something I should look for?

I would be calling the selling dealer for answers(2016? rig)

Yes, 2016. I hate taking things to the dealer but I will as soon as I get a chance.

' Usually ', I'd check the knob under the seat that controls 3pt drop rate. Next, make sure the rear hyd port control levers have not been bumped or left into detent position. Easy enough to check...

Yep those are good starting points.

OP doesn't state/know if it's stuck up or down. If it's up a stick or something is jammed in the linkage. I've also seen something prevent the 3 pt lift lever from moving all the way rearward (up) position. It was subtle enough and the viewing angle for the driver's seat made it difficult to notice.

Another big hint would be to find out what he was doing when it happened.

x2 on this - happened with my first tractor. If the knob under the seat is screwed in all the way the 3-point will not lower.

Thanks y'all. I'll check all of that and report after I head out there this weekend. Anymore suggestions would be appreciated.

Looks like all the 3 point needed was some lubricant. We sprayed it down and tapped on it. Now it's working good!

Most will do this if there is no pressure on the 3point also.. I bet after you use it a bit this will go away

Glad it was an easy fix.
