I'm impressed.

There seems to be some real enthusiasm for the Mahindra 2516 model.

I found a comment from Rick Wallace of Wallace Tractor, a large Mahindra dealer, that seems to suggest this model may well be able to cut a maintained field in High Range.

As I said, I had a 2615 and can't comment on whether you could mow in high range. Maybe some 2516 owners will chime in with their views. Rick is a good dealer. I've read many of his replies. It may be possible.
Just an FYI, I am impressed with Mahindra tractors. I owned mine for 10 years without problem and would have bought another but dealer and I were too far apart on price.

I can't speak about any drawbacks with the Mitsu. built 2 range hydro. However, I have read comments about the subject on other forums. If I recall, some said low was to low and hi not high enough. Much of this would depend on the operator, the tractor, the job at hand, the terrain, working conditions, etc..

With your application and considering what Rick said, I'd say hop on it while the hopping is good.

2415=2516=Max28XL=Max26XL. All essentially the same tractor, model name changed over the years As mentioned, NOT the same as 2615. The 2615 is a larger size, more like a current 3016 in size.

From my experience with the 2516 gear, you could mow in high range 1st gear or lower range 4th gear. Any faster and you tend to rush and get a poor cut. Now that being said, every field is different, and I don't brush hog very often, rather use a 6ft finish mower. The few times I do use my brush hog, being a 5ft, I have kept to the same gearing and have been happy. Other things that affect my mowing are how wet the fields are and how long I have let things go!
Hope you enjoy your Mahindra as much as I do!
