Read articles →This is part 3 of an owner's own 50-hour maintenance series on a 2023 Mahindra 5155, focused specifically on draining hydraulic fluid, replacing the hydraulic filter, and cleaning the suction strainer. It shows the actual strainer pulled out with metal/silicone debris, references both the maintenance and service manuals for clarification, and notes the next service interval is 1100 hours. Best for owners doing this exact hydraulic service themselves.
Posted by the shane4good channel, an owner walking through his own tractor's maintenance rather than a dealer or professional mechanic.
It had metal and silicone chunks in it that needed to be cleaned with diesel and could be blown out with compressed air as shown in the maintenance manual.
It must be done at 50 hours, then again every hydraulic oil change, which is every 1100 hours, so it is rare to repeat soon after the first service.
The hose slides back and forth into the suction strainer cavity, which sits underneath with three bolt screw holes.
