Thanks for the video. I just bought the same tractor from Dubay in Danielson CT. Only a few miles from my house. Look forward to seeing some more videos. 👍
Awesome! I've been to their shop, good folks. Enjoy and thanks for watching. Hopefully will have more videos soon. Coming up on 600 hours. If you have anything specific you want to see, let me know!
@@ridgebackfarm1833 I'm always interested in maintenance like oil or hydraulic fluid changes grease points and how often do you need to do it? The oil filter looked like it was buried underneath. I'm watching whatever you're posting. Thanks,. Dan
I love my 1626 with pretty much the same points you made- the exhaust grime annoys me too. A better bucket is on my list. I added battery cable extensions to make connecting my electric diesel pump easier. Right out of the box it was a beast and continues to do things I wouldn't expect in a 26hp tractor without problem. I use it mostly grading and earth moving on my property and it's paid for itself at least twice already.
@bjjblackbelt513 my dealer (Bypass Automotive in Marshall, NC) is great. As to the warranty, all I've needed to do is regular service and tighten one hydraulic fitting that got knocked loose by rock. I've done this things myself. I honestly couldn't tell you about the warranty
@bjjblackbelt513 exactly, I had over 10 years as a mechanic. If it had any warranty issues, I would've had Bypass handle it. Other than some dents in the buckets and some scratches in the paint, everything I've done is grease and fluid/ filter changes. Bypass did so my first maintenance so they could check the torque and make a few checks on a handful of items that they recommended for after break in. But none of that was warranty. Honestly, I couldn't be more pleased with the level of abuse it takes without breaking
I’m looking at buying 1626. Was reading some reviews about dealers aka Mahindra denying warranty! Also watched Farm dads review about said tractor! Wanted to get reviews from ppl who actually who have them!
I enjoyed the review very much. I’m a home owner and my property needs a lot of ground work to the point where I’m think a tractor is the best way to go, I also know nothing about tractors. Watching a lot of different reviews of different makes and mode I’m leaning towards the Mahindra 1626, but I also have a John Deer Dealer that’s close and convenient but you said you weren’t impressed or just didn’t liked what you saw and I’m hoping you could be a lot more specific so that I can understand the difference so that I can get the better built and reliable machine.
Tony Casella thanks for the feedback and questions! The comparable John Deere model to the 1626 is the 3025E which is John Deere’s economy model. First, the 1626 has better hydraulic rates, lift capacity and weighs more. The JD has an aluminum rear housing, which I wasn’t a fan of. The 1626 is cast, and looks beefier when you compare the two. I have a backhoe on mine so the added meat on the back end gave me more piece of mind. the JD has a 2 speed HST, compared to the 3 speed of the 1626. It is surprising how much of a difference the 3 speed makes compared to the 2 when doing loader work, mowing or tilling. personally, I also thought the 1626 had better ergonomics - loader on the thigh rather than on the frame rail, seat with arm rests, easy access from both sides and I felt more stable on the 1626. The engines in both are bullet proof, Yanmar in the JD and Mitsubishi in the Mahindra, but overall the price comparison and value of the Mahindra (this model is built by Mitsubishi- which Mahindra purchased a large stake in) couldn’t be beat. The model that made me think long and hard was the Kubota l2501. If you are able to, I would recommend comparing all 3 of those models. Dealer support is critical as well, a good dealer can make a bad issue better, whereas a bad dealer can make your life hell. Not sure where you are located, but traveling for a good dealer is never a bad idea. Mine is over an hour away, and has made everything super easy and simple. Hope that helps!
Thank you for replying. I appreciate your honest and objective opinion which for me means a lot. I purchase the same way but people say that I’m anal because it takes me awhile to make a larger $ purchase because I pro and con different makes and models before I buy. I value a person who can explain why he purchased his product especially when I don’t know anything about what I am about to buy, than the person who tells me well it’s the best on the market or everyone buys this brand. Like I had mentioned there’s a John Deer’s close to me but after what you’ve said it does make more sense to go with the Mahindra 1626 and there is a dealer within 1 to 1 1/2 hours from here. Again thank you for your feedback I appreciate it very much. Best Regards
Agree with you on your assessment. I've had mine for about 58 hours now (over a 7-8 month period). I dislike the bucket as well. Seems to me like not only is the volume reduced (for advertising as you mention), but that the roll back angle geometry of the bucket itself is more limited than other tractors I've driven. It's a small irritation, but irritating none the less. * Subscribed.
Appreciate the comment and subscription! Over 250 hours now, just passed a year of ownership - still my only irritation with it. I notice it more when trying to pick up rocks or bigger items as they don’t sit as tightly / securely as they would in a larger bucket with a consistent volume. I guess it is a good thing that’s it’s my only irritation, but disappointing something so simple was the cause!
Awesome, congrats! Had mine a year on June 28th - currently 280 hours. The oil and hydraulic dipsticks are extremely hard to get to. Surprisingly, not the worst places I’ve seen them though. When I do an oil change, I take the loader off. Makes a huge difference. I’d also suggest getting a bucket transfer pump for doing the hydraulic changes. Goes on the top of the bucket and you pump it like an old well. Makes it cleaner and easier. Tractor supply sells them.
I've been told the HST sucks up to 20% of the HP from that machine over the shuttle. True? Don't know. I'm looking at one tomorrow morning and doing shuttle since it's also a couple grand less that HST.
StickerMigTigger this is true for PTO horsepower. Engine is about 25.9 and geared pto drops to 21.5 hydro to 19.5. You’ll see the impact when doing ground engaging work (tilling,disking, etc.). Hydro is better for loader work and forestry stuff. I’m doing the latter on my property and have enjoyed the hydro. Much of it comes down to personal preference as well. Typically the cost difference shouldn’t be more than 1500$ between the two. Any more than that and I would shop around or try and negotiate. Best of luck, enjoy!
Dannyixoye I haven’t heard that before, I would be worried about it running in the hotter temps. I have a mind to get dielectric grease, just keep forgetting...
@@ridgebackfarm1833 Been doing it since I was 16 and next month, I'll be 66. If you live in a hot climate all it will do is kinda melt but the film will still remain. Once a year is fine. In case you don't know Vaseline is petroleum based. Which is what dielectric grease used to be but they changed that to a silicone base due to fancy electronic stuff. Either one will work just fine and in a pinch put axle grease on it or a squirt of WD,40 and actually WD works pretty good because it sheds water or humidity. I have use that as well on batteries in other vehicles I have and also spraying it on spark plug wires and distributor or coil when the engine cranks but don't start Just so you know WD stands for water displacement.
At the 4:02 mark there is a shot of the transmission "hump" on the operator platform. You will see there is a diptstick and knob. On the other side of the knob is a cap you fill the hydraulic fluid from. For the HST, the hydraulic and transmission systems use the same fluid. I believe the same is true for the geared tractor but not 100% sure.
Appreciate the comment! www.amazon.com/Ginsco-Cigarette-Lighter-Splitter-Motorcycle/dp/B01B79F8CW was what i used for the outlets. No complaints would get again. For the lights, they are just Travellers brand from tractor supply. I like them, just a little too small (they were what i had lying around). Currently, they are singular pod lights, but i will be going to a bigger light bar before winter.
@Ridgeback Farm I'm in a huge mind fight with myself over buying the 2626 or the L2501. I can get the 1626 for 19,700 with all it's little extras extras, or a pretty bare bones L2501 for 22,500. I keep asking myself if Kubota lone is worth that 2500. Kubota service, parts availability, etc make Kubota look better but dang..... If you had to buy over again, would you still have bought Mahindra?
The l2501 was also one i was considering heavily. But, In 2 years i have put almost 430 hours on the 1626 without an issue. So far, nothing would keep me from buying it again. It would come to dealer support for me at that point. I have 3 mahindra dealers within 40 miles that have been in business more than 10 years. I felt confident if i did have an issue i would be taken care of. Did the mahindra come with anything? Seems kind of high for a bare bones tractor. If they didn't budge more on price, i think id go with Kubota in that scenario. Comparable l2501 for my configuration was almost 6k more. Dealer didn't want to haggle either.
I had a 2501, excellent tractor, but wasn’t quite big enough for me. Mine was a manual transmission and didn’t have live power. My Mahindra 1635 has independent PTO and is a better fit
Tractor, loader, backhoe, pallet forks, backhoe thumb and all fluids, filters and 2 Mahindra hats for under 25k. I financed with regular terms not the 0% interest (its not actually 0, they build it into purchase price and paying off quicker doesn't do anything for you).
@@ridgebackfarm1833 I think I got a great deal on mine then. 2015 1533 shuttle with loader, 1538B backhoe with $800 thumb total of 52 hours on it and it still had remaining Mahindra warranty on it (now expired) bought it in 2018 from an old fella that needed to get out of payments for $14,500. It had Ag tires on it so I bought a whole set of turfs complete with rims for $800. I’m in it total for $15,300.

Ridgeback Farm was that the cash price? By the time my dealer was done adding on finance charges and mandatory insurance he was up to $34k. I got a low interest bank loan and only paid him the $26,940.00. No pallet forks.
Thank you for your review. Good info. I think I’m leaning toward this one. I saw another review that talked about losing power with the hst Vs manual shifting. Any thoughts?
etarheel1 There is some level of power loss with the HST, mainly at the PTO. 1626 loses about 2hp at the rear end, which for me is a fair trade off for the maneuverability of the tractor that I gain. Truthfully, it all depends on your application and preference, to determine if that loss of power is a deal breaker. I do a lot of loader and backhoe work (dirt, gravel, stumps etc.) so the HST is awesome. I have not met anything I couldn’t move or do that the gear drive would have been necessary for - power or otherwise. If you’re doing more ground engaging work (plowing, cultivating, etc) the gear drive may be more suitable. Based on my research, this tractor in HST config. will handle a tiller, stump grinder, mower and auger without issue and may actually be preferable for some of the attachments. I would test both models and get a feel for them and look at what you will be doing with it. Lastly, it is also a matter of preference. Does one feel better than the other? Hopefully that helps, either way it is a stout machine! Thanks for watching and the feedback!
I bought a 2011 2816hst tlb in 2018. Core tractor made by Mitsubishi. Loader and backhoe by a company in Kansas. The only plastic it has is around the steering wheel. I had and old iron tlb 50 hp. I am getting to the age that limited geared clutch tractor was getting too dangerous. I looked at the green ones and the orange ones but the new price was just too much to justify. Yeah the curl is limited. If you are using a loader alot get a hst. Sure you lose some power but you have so much more control over what you are doing. I used a clutch tlb for 50 years. Wouldn't go back. Plus it has cruse control and I can teach my grandkids to use it soon. The unit is sized correctly so that the weak points are not the tractor. The loader is mounted to the sides and front as a loader should be. I mounted a truck plow on the front for snow. Just use the loader controls and take the loader off.
Main reason bucket is smaller at the back than the front is the rib is a stiffening rib. A stiffening rib allows the bucket to be made with thinner metal, say 12 gauge verses 10 gauge. Saves lots and lots of money making them. Just look at any new snowblower verses something 15-20 years old. I sorry but I stopped watching after only 1/4 watched. I hope in 3 years you learned to turn your phone sideways so the video is wider than taller.
All Mahindra tractors are manufactured overseas, either in India or China. The only two people that Mahindra gives a job to is the salesman and the mechanic that keeps fixing them. Buy American and give your kids or grandkids a job. Buy a John Deere that is made in Augusta, Georgia, John Deere employees thousands of Americans.
Don't know off top of my head, would be in manual. I did go through all bolts one by one and applied red locktite and re torqued them. Not a single one has loosened since...
@@ridgebackfarm1833 I guess I’ll have to check the manual but if memory serves me correctly it wasn’t in there. Personally I’ve found the Mahindra manual to be one of the worse owners manuals I’ve ever seen. i.e the 2 fuel filter replacements doesn’t even mention that one of them is a banjo style bolt on top vs twist off. I almost broke it my first time doing a service until I realized it was different. Horrible owners manual especially considering the price and complexity of these tractors.
Great machines. I love mine. I went with the shuttle shift.
How do you like the shuttle shift? I’m trying to decide between that and HST.
Well done review. Looking at one for first tractor.

Personally I’ve found the Mahindra manual to be one of the worse owners manuals I’ve ever seen. i.e the 2 fuel filter replacements doesn’t even mention that one of them is a banjo style bolt on top vs twist off. I almost broke it my first time doing a service until I realized it was different. Horrible owners manual especially considering the price and complexity of these tractors.
