Any quick fixes for a tach hand sticking, thought I'd seen something on here about it before, did a quick search but didnt see anything. I have a 5530 2wd, can usually just give a "quick pop" with the palm of your hand and it starts working but if theres something I could do to fix that would...

Ok, I'm going to try and explain this the best I can and I know, I know need pictures but probably going to be the weekend before I'll be able to get those so for now I'll have to try and describe it. First of all this is on a Mahindra/Kodiak 6ft. SD bush hog. Noticed yesterday that I was...

Looking for the strongest, "uncuttable" chain or cable for securing equipment. Had a string of thefts at several other farms in the area and just trying to be prepared. Any suggestions? Thanks

Could someone point me to (I'm sure theres one on here) a picture of a 55 gallon drum made into a ballast box for the rear. Also anyone know how much weight I should be shooting for on the back of a Mahindra 5530 2wd. Thanks for the info.

As I said before the wife has taken a real liking to the new tractor, she decided the back pasture, being pretty flat and open would be her first test, I thought she did a pretty good job....:thumbsup:

Thanks EMB5530 for the info. Sounds exactly like what I have going on. Since the last time I posted I contacted the dealer and they sent out to have the tractor picked up but I'm again running into the issue you had, they say they couldnt get it to do it either. But after reading all the post...

Ok what you guys think will a 1995 Dodge 4x4 V8 (5.2 liter) tow a Mahindra 5530 2wd with FEL and bush hog? I've done all the research and looked at the towing capacities and all that jazz, but just wondering if someone out there has actually tried and how it does. Also think I should use a...

The wife has taken a liking to our new tractor, Mahindra 5530, which is good (although it does mean less seat time for me):) but thats ok. The issue is she is only about 5'0 tall and reaching the pedals, especially the clutch, is a challenge. Anyone know of some type of backrest padding or...

Just wondering how many of you actually run farm diesel in your tractors as opposed to highway diesel? And what advantages/disadvantages or performance issues with either. Just wondering....

As I said in my introduction just purchased a new Mahindra 5530 2wd, which I love, but I do have one issue. Somewhere between 1500 and 1800 rpms it seems to idle/run rough and has ALOT of smoke out of the exhaust. Anything under this (at a dead idle) or anything above this (at full operating...

Love this site!! Just purchased a new Mahindra 5530 2wd with FEL and 6 ft. bush hog. (which I love, might I add) The information on here was a SO helpful in my decision as what to buy. Therefore just wanted to make sure I stayed a part of it. Thanks for all the help!!
