Actually mine machine was made by Mitsubishi. Mitsu makes the 1500 series while TYM makes the 2500 machines. The Mitsu is supposed to be a little nicer. Like I said I like the machine just not the manuals nor what seems to be Mahindras attitude. I know manuals aren't hard to do because I've done a few in my day and there is absolutely no reason whatsoever for Mahindra not to have good service info accessible and avaliable to owners on their website. They did once a few years ago. Most of the data needed for service info and manuals is already avaliable. They have to have it to build the tractors. All it takes is a copy of Adobe Acrobat to put it together into decent service and or operators manuals. If you want a hard copy, just hit the print button. It really is easy to do. The reasons aren't because they can't nor is it expensive, it's simply a conscious choice on their part and that is why I'm so adamant and vocal about it. Chaulk it up as a bad attitude which is not good for us or for them. I actually want them to succeed. I watched what happened to Detroit when they got a dose of attitude problems.
BTW I'm a little off 49, you take hwy 20 to my place which jogs east from Nevada City. Where were you up here?
