Mahindra 6500 4WD with Skid Steer FEL.Mahindra 3616 HST with Skidsteer, Vermeer RT200 Trencher
Have a new 3616 with just 2 hours on it.In MID and HI range when I steer right or left the ground speed goes down.The more I turn the more the speed falls.Going in a straight line up a grade the speed also falls.In all cases the engine is not strained-it is not changing speed.Is there an adjustment for Hydrostatic pressure?

Wish i could help, but I only have a couple hours on my 3616. Does it do the same thing in low range? Have you contacted the dealer?

It will do that a little if you're in 4wd. You're dragging one wheel when you turn a corner.


I suspect you're not familiar with how an HST works. Pressing the pedal down puts it in a higher 'gear'. When climbing a hill you need to let off of the pedal to put it into a lower 'gear'. The hst has an infinite number of 'gears' ..every position of the pedal is a different 'gear'.
