Read articles →A real-time walkthrough of removing the backhoe from a Mahindra Max 26 XLT, assembling the three-point hitch, attaching a quick hitch, and reinstalling the backhoe, all shown step by step with pin locations, hydraulic line handling, and safety reminders like the transport pin. At 29 minutes it goes fairly deep on the actual procedure. Most useful to Max 26 XLT owners doing this swap for the first time.
An owner-operator named John documenting his own property projects, so expect candid hands-on narration rather than a polished or sales-oriented presentation.
Lower outriggers to barely touch, pull the angle pin and insert the transport pin, remove two quick release pins, disconnect hydraulics, then rock the frame back to lift it out of the cradle.
After removing the backhoe, assemble the three point arms, use the top link in the top hole, and adjust turnbuckles by hand to remove play and center everything.
Pre-stage a pin on each side, lift the quick hitch onto the three point arms, push the plate through and pin it, then link and lock the top link.
If the transport pin is not put back in, the backhoe can lose pressure and fall through, so it must be reinserted after reinstalling the backhoe.
