    Gathering fallen timber for firewood

    I see on here where a lot of folks utilize their tractors to retrieve firewood with a lot of creativity, and very successfully. I figured this may be a great source of information since I know very little on this subject. Here's the deal... My father has about 26 acres of wooded mountain...

    Snow pusher leveling and FEL cylinders

    Just picked up a new HLA 1500 pusher, 60" for my Mahindra Max 26xl. Set it up and played a little today and I'm pretty happy with it. My question is more about the FEL cylinders and SSQA. With the current setup the pusher is pretty level with the cylinders fully retracted, as in SSQA is tilted...

    mahindra finance 0% / 84 month question

    I've done a lot of reading on here about this and there are obviously lots of other folks that went with this financing option also, but I have a question that I have not seen an answer to.

    looking for camera for dump trailer

    My truck is an '07 without a back up camera. I would like to get one for the typical trailer hitching guide, but mainly wanted it for putting it on my dump trailer to watch the contents dumping out.

    max 26xl instrument panel - some lights work some don't

    I've done a search here and haven't really found a similar problem. All of my headlights, tail lights, 4 ways, turn signals etc. work correctly. Everything on the tractor seems to operate correctly. The only issue is with some of the indicator lights on the instrument cluster. The headlights...

    should I buy a new hitch or weight distribution hitch

    I have an 18' equipment trailer and a 12' dump trailer, both are 10k rated. My truck hitch, however is 7500 weight carrying and 13,000 with weight distribution. My truck GCWR is 16,000, so with the truck weight I am limited to pulling 10k regardless, hence the trailer sizes. With the current...

    I am debating about getting the mulching kit for the MMM on my Max 26xl. I mow my own yard and a few others also and would like to have a cleaner look when done than the typical blanket of long clippings everywhere. I have used a pull behind lawn sweeper after mowing but that is a PITA and...

    Max 26XL bucket and toothbar

    Anyone know what the purpose is for the rib on the outer side of the bucket? It looks like it is pressed from the inner side leaving an indent and the protruding rib on the outside. I'm curious because I was looking at adding a Piranha tooth bar but by my measurements the bolt location is...

    Max 26XL - flail mower vs rotary cutter

    I have spent countless hours reading and researching on this forum and all over the interwebs, and yes including the epic "Let's talk flail mowers" thread here. There is an endless amount of posts, videos and opinions on flail vs rotary but somehow I'm still on the fence with which to go with...

    Piranha tooth bar for slate?

    I've been doing a lot of research on here about the piranha tooth bar as it seems to be a popular and impressive attachment for a lot of digging scenarios. However, one thing that I didn't see was anything on digging into a slate bank. That is one area that my straight edge bucket struggled...

    Max 26XL mower deck issues

    I've had a few issues with my mower deck caster set up since I bought everything new last spring. Late last summer the front caster shaft somehow got bent a little. I never hit anything with it but just normal mowing the yard with slight hills, typical turning etc seemed to be too much for it...

    Max 26XL ROPS lights

    I did a lot of research on this site before attempting to install LED work lights on the ROPS and found various tips throughout different threads, so I decided to try to help the next guy and put it all together for how I went about doing mine. By the way, YES, my tractor needs cleaned, LOL, but...
