It shows real results on rutted, debris-covered ground and ends with a quick owner endorsement of the 1526 after six years of use. Best for buyers curious about implement performance on rough acreage, not tractor specs or controls.
Posted by an owner-operator documenting DIY land-clearing and pasture work on his own property with his Mahindra 1526.
It pulled debris off the ground and leveled ruts left by a trackhoe and skid steer, making a bumpy field much smoother, though some debris still gets caught in the tines.
The ratchet rake worked better for that because it was easier to control on the bucket when pushing into the wood line, compared to backing in with the landscape rake.
After six years the owner reports zero issues, having only changed a battery and one corroded battery cable, and says 26 horsepower is plenty for a five foot finish mower and four foot brush hog.
The opening setting controlling seed flow was too wide on the first pass, dumping half the seed, so he had to adjust it to find a setting that worked well.
