Mahindra 3535

I am now the proud owner of a Mahindra 3535 4 wheel drive tractor with bucket and with 72 inch finishing mower. 1st tractor I have ever owned-
When I bought them the price qouted me was for a Land Pride finishing mower and when the tractor and finishing mower was delivered it was a "bush Hog" brand? the price was the same I just hope bush hog is as good.
I love the tractor so far-it has lots of power-easy to use and the finishing mower is doing a great job-
Only one thing that kinda concerns me is that the paint is chipping off in one or two places on the tractor and even a couple places on the bush hog gear box. I dont want it to rust out so I will take a wire brush and clean it off to paint the spots where the paint is chipping off.
Kinda funny- I know so little about tractors -when I first got it last week I pulled the wheels off the bush hog and adjusted round spacers get a medium cut height- I went to go mow and after a minute I looked back and I was missing a tire on the bush hog? Oh brother -brand new and a tire already came off- well I finally found the spacers, wheel and kotter pin and reassembled everything and it occcured to me that the kotter pin goes in in a way that locks it in place- heeee heeee
I was upset at first till I realized this-
Oh well- live and learn
have a good day all

I'm not laughing at you but with you, you are a parts mans dream. You need a hired hand, thats what I do blame it on Jerry!

Been a landpride dealer for years and have traded for several Bush Hog brand finish mowers.. Chance are why you got the Bush Hog brand rather than the Land Pride is tht the dealer snnokered you out of about $ 225.00 bucks.. Bush hog finish mower is cheaper dealer cost.. but that,s what you get when you are inexperienced, dealers can tell..As for the paint on the tractor most fade rather fast. They don,t use the best paint. We usually duck tape the keeper pins for city slickers like you so you don,t loose wheels. Pretty common thing. Happens when you mow up under bushes.
