16
ASSEMBLY
IMPORTANT: Make sure to thread the hoses through
the hook on the hydraulic hose support and the hook
on the front hitch bracket as done previously with the
hoses for the hydraulic lift system.
IMPORTANT: Twists in the hydraulic hoses will wear
them out prematurely. If the quick couplers are not
well aligned, slightly loosen the fitting (item 3) in order
to rotate the female quick coupler (item 4).
Lubricate the threads with hydraulic fluid and tighten
the joint at 25 lb. ft.
ATTENTION: Over tightening is one of the greatest
cause for oil leaks.
Test the hydraulic controls in order to make sure that
they coordinate with the movement of the accessory.
If they do not match, reconnect the hoses in the right
order.
IMPORTANT:
If manipulating the hydraulic
commands do not create any movement, one hose
from the hydraulic lift system is interchanged with one
hose for the chute rotation.
NOTE: Use a coloured tie wrap (not supplied) to
identify the different hoses to simplify future
installation.

OPERATION & MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
WARNING
The subframe kit is to be used only to lift and
operate the snowblower, blade or broom for the
Mahindra tractors.
TO PREVENT INJURIES:
Stop the vehicle’s motor.
Apply parking brake.
Remove the ignition key.
ACCESSORY OPERATION:
Use the joystick for the loader to lift or lower the
accessory.
MAINTENANCE
Check mounting bolts at frequent intervals for proper
tightness in order to prevent costly repairs. Make sure
your accessory is in safe working condition. Remove
snow from the subframe after each use.
IMPORTANT:
*It is the user / or the person who does the
installation’s responsibility to install the hoses in
such a manner that they do not come into contact
with any mobile elements of the vehicle (the
wheels or the subframe), sharp edge, hot surface
in all operating conditions if not, this could lead
to damages.
LUBRICATION
Driveline;
Every 16 hours of use and before storing at the end of
the season.
For 1526-1626-3016-3616 series tractor make sure
that the hoses between the front support and the
side support are long enough to follow the
movements of the subframe.
WARNING
TO PREVENT INJURIES:
Lower the accessory when the vehicle is parked.
Temperature changes could change the hydraulic
pressure, causing the accessory to drop
unexpectedly,
damaging
the
hydraulic
components. Failure to do this could result in
serious personal injury.
WARNING
TO PREVENT INJURIES:
Never leave the driver seat without disengaging
the accessory, stopping the engine, applying the
parking brakes and removing the ignition key.
Never operate on slopes of more than 10%.
18
DISMOUNTING & STORAGE
SUBFRAME DISMOUNTING
WARNING
TO PREVENT INJURIES:
Park the vehicle on a flat surface in a well ventilated
area.
Disengage the P.T. O.
Apply parking brake.

8. Back up with the vehicle to free the subframe.
The next step requires the vehicle’s hydraulic system.
Be aware that the vehicle is still running.
IMPORTANT: When there is an accessory installed
on the vehicle, it is not recommended to use this
method if there is not enough ground clearance to
slide the subframe from underneath the vehicle.
Subframe with snowblower:
1) Unplug the hydraulic hoses for the chute rotation and
wrap them around the snowblower chute.
2) Raise the snowblower.
3) Remove the rear pin that unites the rear subframe to
the rear hitch.
4) Lower the snowblower.
ATTENTION: the rear part of the subframe will lower
to the ground.
5) Remove the drive shaft from the mid PTO.
NOTE: This step is important to avoid damages to
the drive mechanism or to the vehicle.
6) Remove the rear hitch (optional).
7) Remove the front pin from the subframe.
8) Activate the hydraulic cylinder to lower the front
part of the subframe.
9) Unplug the hydraulic hoses for the lift mechanism
