Read articles →A dealership walkaround explicitly framed as an owner orientation rather than a sales pitch, the presenter walks through quick-attach loader operation, skid-steer attachment compatibility caveats, hydraulic and PTO RPM guidance, three-point hitch position lock troubleshooting, hydrostatic transmission range shifting, and the notoriously hard-to-find engine oil dipstick location. Practical and specific enough to be genuinely useful to someone who just took delivery of a 1626 and has basic how-do-I questions.
Posted by the MURPHYBROTHERSTRADING.COM channel, identified in the video as a Mahindra dealership in Booneville, Mississippi, so the perspective is dealer-friendly, though the presenter makes a visible effort to focus on owner education over selling.

The hitch position lock got bumped and locked. Crank the tractor, raise the hitch to take off pressure, then open the lock further so it can come down.
For 540 PTO RPM, the engine needs to turn about 2400 RPM. For non-PTO work like a box blade, at least 2000 RPM is recommended.
The coupler is universal skid steer, so attachments will fit, but the tractor may not have enough hydraulics to run something like a forestry mulcher. Match attachments to the tractor's capability.
