right, but still dont see a max implement weight listed that is not the lift capacity of the rear arms....but my wife says im blind
Not sure where Mahindra has that information. My manual for the MX4700 lists It is a Cat 1/2 three point hitch. It has a maximum lift of 2,870 pounds at lift points (which I believe is at the arm ends), 2,310 pounds at 2 feet behind lift points and then 1,000 pounds maximum for certain implements such as rotary cutter.
I assume the reduction in weight with regard to the implement has to do with the strength of the differential case/housing that the 3 point is attached to. A 1,000 pound implement bouncing around back there while lifted and traveling at higher speed when not in use can put a tremendous stress on that part of the machine. Just something you might want to keep an eye on because that sort of repair can get expensive in a hurry.
