i) The lifting capacity at standard frame was recorded as 9.55 kN and the moment
about the rear axle was computed as14.56 kN-m. The moment about rear axle
is on higher side when compared to the moment about front axle i.e. 12.36 kN.
It is therefore, recommended that the lifting capacity of the hydraulic system
may be reduced suitably or additional standard ballast mass at front axle may
be provided to avoid front lifting of the tractor.
ii) Total drop in height of lift during lift load maintenance test was recorded as 125
mm against the preferably maximum requirement of 50 mm, and calls for
necessary corrective action.
During haulage performance test, drops of water were found in engine oil. The
cylinder liner „O‟ ring (water) and cylinder liner „O‟ ring (oil) of second cylinder were
found in damaged condition. The following parts were replaced with new one for all
the four cylinder liners.
i) Liner „O‟ ring water (Part No. 005553024R2) – 4 Nos.
ii) Liner „O‟ ring oil (Part No. 005554163R1) – 4 Nos.
The above replacements are considered as pre-mature nature of breakdown and
calls for introduction of suitable remedial measures at production/assembly line.
17.7.1 The following modified literature has been supplied by the manufacturer.
a) Operator‟s manual for DI Tractors
b) Part‟s catalogue Mahindra tractors
c) Supplementary part‟s catalogue for Bhoomiputra MKM & New Bhoomiputra DLX
models [265 DI, 275 DI, 275 DI TU, 475 DI & 575 DI] Tractors.
d) Service manual for Mahindra tractors
17.7.2 The revised literature submitted by the firm was found adequate. However, the
following points may be re-examined and suitably incorporated in the operator‟s
manual:
a) All variants model of tractor along with their features may be provided at a glance.
b) The engine lubricating oil change period has been specified as after every 250
hours of operation in the application. Whereas the same has been specified as
first change after 250 hours and thereafter, every 300 hours of operation in the
printed literature.
c) The transmission lubricating oil change period has been specified as after every
1000 hours of operation in the application. Whereas the same has been specified
as after every 1200 hours of operation in the printed literature.
17.7.3 These literatures may also be brought out in national as well as other regional
languages.
