All-- Quite some time ago, I was reading everything I could about backhoe operation. I have a Mahindra 5545, 4WD and a frame mounted backhoe, plus some other stuff. . An experienced backhoe operator wrote that it was not necessary to run the engine at brush hog speed; 2100rpm for me. I knew...

All-- I changed the oil in my Mahindra 5545 (9 quarts) and my Komatsu SK1020-5 Turbo (10 quarts) skid steer today. I decided to use 15W-40 in the tractor and 10W-30 in the skid steer, using the temperature range shown in their respective manuals. Except, I screwed up. I flipped them: The...

All-- My 5545 is throwing code upside down "F" 73.1. By the time I got home it had gone to 73.6 and then to 73.7. (I may have missed intermediate codes.) I guess this is an error code or maybe an alert? Thanks! --Bill

All-- I have a Mahindra 5545, 4wd. Today, it ran very well earlier, but when I started it to do a little backhoe work it began smoking from the exhaust and running very rough and would not produce any power. This happened a couple of years ago, as well. Back then, I had made up my mind to haul...

All-- My four wheel drive Mahindra 5545 with backhoe, heavy duty box blade and heavy duty brush hog arrived today. I had just a few moments at the dealer's (Blue Valley Tractor and Supply) to start it, exercise the FEL and the backhoe. The 5545 has industrial tires which I think will work for...

All-- I have a 22 foot H&H trailer. I need a backup camera on the end of the trailer. I bought a popular 7" unit and it works out in the yard somewhat beyond the length of the trailer plus the 13 feet (guesstimate) to the cab of the truck. However, it doesn't handle obstructions well--like the...

All-- I have a 2016, 4wd Mahindra with a backhoe and other stuff coming my way. I also have a '05 Komatsu SK 1024 turbo that weighs about 7600lbs. My question concerns where a load is positioned on the trailer (H&H electric/hydraulic tilt bed with upgraded frame and axles). How do I know the...

All-- Between now and Saturday, I will contract for a new Mahindra 4WD 5545 with a backhoe, FEL, box blade, 5' HD brush hog and a 22' H&H EX HYD/ELEC (tilt bed) trailer with a steel frame upgraded to 8" steel (from 6"), a 10,000lb Superwinch and a wooden deck. Both the tilt bed and the winch...

All-- Is there a current list of Mahindra Red Carpet dealers? I found the initial list published at the launch of the Red Carpet program, but I cannot find anything else. --Bill

All-- Newbie question: Is an FEL appropriate for snow (1 foot or less) removal over a dirt/rock road? Thanks. --Bill

All-- I am a total newbie both to this forum and to tractors. All my questions will reflect that status. Currently, I am looking at a new 4025 4wd with bucket and backhoe. But, I read that the 4035 has more flexibility in regards to the 3 point hitch adjustment making it easier for one person...
