The presenter also addresses the on-the-fly shifting controversy directly and promises a brief driving and grapple demonstration. Best for buyers weighing this tractor for logging or small farm work.
A dealership channel, the presenter identifies himself as a salesperson at Orchard Hill Farm Equipment, New England's self-described largest Mahindra dealer, so expect a sales-leaning perspective.
Yes, the dealer says you can shift it fine as long as you are not doing a bad shift, since it has heavy straight cut gears built for rugged use, not speed.
It has a SK 1400 grapple on a skid-steer quick attach loader up front and an England 3-3501 skidder winch mounted on the back.
Yes, the video states this tractor has draft control, which is noted as a nice feature not every tractor this size offers.
Without the grapple or skidder, it weighs over 7,000 pounds at 50 horsepower, and is also available in 41 and up to 65 horsepower versions.
