I've done some basic searching, and I've looked this issue up before to no avail, so hopefully someone can give me the right direction to look. I have a Mahindra 2638 with a front loader. The front loader works fine when I have my bucket or grapple on (though I need to ensure the arms are...

Thanks!

I searched in the forum and found references to the Service manual being posted, but the search didn't bring up the post itself. If anyone happens to have a copy of the PDF, I'd appreciate if I could get a copy.

Thank you, for both your posts. I'll email Maschio and see what their recommended settings are (vs just minimum) for the Rosa. I'd rather not operate in a risky manner with my level of expertise.

So is the manufacturer lying then? Their website says 25hp. No one site can seem to agree on anything, which is why this is such a pain in the ass. The 2638 is 37 hp, so I have more breathing room on the minimum vs some of the other settings.

Would you mind elaborating a bit? According to manufacturer's specs, the mower is built for this size tractor, though I am a bit on the lower end of the scale. Due to that we are actually considering the smaller model (the Rosa) to alleviate some of those issues, though we will obviously still...

Yes, I've looked through all the specs I can find on the Maschio website. There isn't much said about weight distribution, though through my searching I have learned how to test to ensure the tractor is balanced at full extension. From what I understand, however, there is no PTO shaft. The pump...

I'm looking to buy a used boom flail mower I located. It is a Maschio Margherita (Evo) 380 and I have a Mahindra 2638 HST. I've researched the manufacturer website and looked at some dealer websites (information doesn't always match). While I will have to go make sure I have everything for...

I probably should have made sure I was clear that this is a backhoe attachment on a tractor, and not a backhoe machine. Either way it holds true that I would have to be careful of balance issues. What I have found are attachments like the Machio Gaspardo brand, or the Bush Hog boom mowers. The...

Are there alternatives to backhoe buckets? I'm searching for a boom mower and the idea has crossed my mind that it almost seems easier to go by a mulching head or sickle bar and then run a hydraulics line down my backhoe. Does any company provide alternatives such as post hold diggers or other...

I just jumped into the world of tractors and have been using my 2638 for a couple of weeks. Digging around some large roots (as carefully as you can while trying to destroy something), I've already snapped my first tooth. Are there any recommendations on replacing these with non-OEM teeth? I...
