Read articles →This is a real-world job video, not a Max 26 review: the operator is using the tractor to run a 7.5' International Harvester flail mower (not the Mahindra's own implement) at a customer's property, and struggles with a slipping single-belt design throughout the cut. It shifts into a detailed teardown of the mower's hangers, belt tensioner, and offset, with a DIY bracket fix. Useful mainly for flail-mower maintenance insight, not tractor shopping.
Appears to be an independent operator doing property/mowing work and documenting real jobs and equipment problems as they happen, rather than a dealer or reviewer.
Because it is a single belt design. The transcript says you really need three or four belts for traction, otherwise it slips badly, makes noise, and smells.
Loosen the nut on the tensioner and turn it to take deflection out of the belt. The operator also planned to install a new belt.
Instead of buying original brackets at $35 each, take a D-ring, drill it out, sleeve it, and rebolt it in place.
The video says don't buy one. It's obsolete, long discontinued, and parts are a nightmare to find, sometimes only available from Canada with customs fees.
