Compact sub compact?

Per owners manual on my tiny tym rk rebrand tractor first extensive service is at fifty hours than every few hundred or so hrs. Anyone remember when most new things required a break in service requiring fluid and filters? My Yamaha outboard requires a pretty extensive 20 hr break in servicing.

Every 50 hours, or just first 50 hours? I can’t recall another machine with an oil filter that required every 50 hour engine oil changes. That’s normally just walk-behinds with single-cylinder engines.

Just the first 50hrs. Then it's something like every 200hrs for engine oil and longer for trans and front axle. I don't have the book near me at the moment.

Ok. That's normal. Like jjeff said, "break-in service". Gets rid of the assembly lube and the first several hours of everything seating in.

Yes
We do. Mahindra 1100 series.
790 lb fel lift.
If you weren’t going to lift and load with the tractor, you could use a 3 point attachment to carry dirt, debris, logs etc.
Front mount snow blowers almost necessitate a shield of some sort such as a cab.
So this Mahindra provides a cab, 52” pto belly mower that gets off and on in minutes plus your mid pto snow thrower.

I know this is an old thread, but I've been learning alot about the 1100 series.

Apparently, the mid PTO front mount snow blower made by Beromac for Mahindra and Bercomac branded snow blowers are incompatible with the Mahindra quick mount belly mower brackets.

The front mount snow blower specifically requires you to remove the mowers frame mounted PTO brackets before installing the snow blower. Read the highlighted paranthesis from the snow blower manual.

I've gone to 3 different dealers and none of them had a clue about how this tractor works. In fact, only one new that the quick attach deck was an auto capture. They incorrectly described the deck mounting as the same as an eMax. until I asked them to look at the owners manual.

The dealer who actually knew how the deck functioned, was unaware that the mower mounting PTO assembly needed to be removed and called their mahindra rep to verify. He was told that a rework of the mounting system was being contemplated, so you don't have to disassemble the PTO bracketing to install the snow blower.

I still don't know if they meant the mower deck mounting or the snow blower.

Quick update on 21 HP rural king plowing snow it does a pretty good job, however vbar tire chains and a better tph weight box will definitely help when I find the time to build one . My hacked together cheap Chinese sxs plow I welded to a blank qa plate works good the plow was built well enough I used it 3x to get my tractor unstuck by curling it flat and curling it the other way while simultaneously using the reverse pedal and rear locker. It definitely isn't like my old l2850 with shuttle shift and loader only and I'm learning how to plow with my tiny tractor it as is last time I didn't get stuck once lol. Much quicker than a 4 wheeler with plow, chains and weight on the back receiver. My plow on tiny tractor is 72" usually always angled. Still can easily push banks back farther than 4 wheeler for sure. I won't discuss previous snow removal methods using an underpowered Chinese built self contained atv snowblower.
