Anyone had any luck fitting a set of rear chains on a 3R series? I have a 3039R with turf's and the dealer sold me a set of OFA Easyon 5 chains stating those would fit fine. They don't fit. The chains make contact with the fender where it's mounted. There's very little fender clearance on the 3R...

Just had my new 2605 delivered yesterday. Has the HD bucket with cutting edge, R1 tires, loaded rears, 1 rear remote, skid steer quick attach loader, and independent PTO. I just love the simplicity of this tractor. All heavy steel and mechanical. Nothing fancy. Vertical exhaust stack, center...

I had a dealer quote me for a new 2605, 4WD w/ loader, bolt on cutting edge and loaded tires for $24,874.00. I can't find anything searching on line with prices so I would love to hear from anyone else who has purchased this tractor to know if this is a fair price. Dealer said it was for 3.99%...

Does anyone have any good advice on how to set the value of a used tractor to be sold? I'm looking to down size and can't find any good resources to get a value of my tractor. I have a 2010 Massey Ferguson 1652 loader w/cab and 400 hours on the clock. Since it's a fairly new tractor, I have not...

I just picked up a used Kuhn 2 rotor GF22NT hay tedder. I have gone over the thing to make sure it's all greased but can't find where to add the oil to the gear box. I have looked it all over and see no fill ports of any type. Does anyone have any experience with this model of tedder? Am I...

I have an International Harverster 155 manure spreader purchased around '68. I'm rebuilding the rear clutch and am having trouble finding the correct parts because I don't have a parts list with model numbers. If anyone has a parts list with model numbers they would be willing to send me it...

I was about to leave my house and noticed smoke coming from the front of my tractor. It looked like someone was standing beside the tractor smoking a cigarette. I used my tractor this morning to load some horse manure for a guy. I found a small amount of dried manure resting under one of the...

I have been wanting to get an old tractor for a while now for a fix up project. My fear is I only have basic knowlege when it comes to engines and electrical wiring. I want to take on a project that is not too complicated and build on my knowledge and learn as I go. I figure old machinery would...

I have a 2010 Massey Ferguson 1652 with a DL130 loader. Over the past year I have noticed the loader dropping at a more frequent rate during use. When the hydraulics warm up it seems to drop faster. I have never disconnected any of the hydraulic fittings on the loader. All maintenance intervals...

I have an under ground outdoor hydrant to water the horses that was struck by someone and bent. I'm concerned there may be a leak in the shut off valve under ground if it bent enough. I've been searching around and can't come up with anything. If you have your water supply from a municipality...

I think I broke the suspension seat on my 1652. The seat worked fine yesterday. Went out today and sat on the seat and it sank to the bottom. When I got up, it wouldn't spring back without me having to lift it up. I tried adjusting the tension but that didn't make a difference. The seat has a...

I started cutting firewood today. Pulled out my grandfathers old saw rig after having the blade sharpened. Cuts like butter now. It's so much faster than using a chain saw to cut firewood. I haven't found any other saw rigs like this one around. The only other cord wood saws I have found hang...

My father has a Continental gas 135 which I believe is a '67. I have been trying to find a wiring diagram for this tractor, but have not come up with any. If anyone has a wiring diagram I would greatly appreciate it.

It's been about a year that I've owned the 1652. It has the Dyna QPS 4x4 transmission w/ cab, FEL and R4's loaded with rimguard in the rears. The R4's have done well, but not pleased with their performance in mud. I plan to replace them with ag's once they wear out. It's got plenty of power and...

My father has a MF 135 with the gas engine. I told him I would put the issue on here to see if anyone has any ideas. Earliner in the year the water pump stopped working and the engine over heated. Stated he replaced the pump in addition to the head gasket. Engine was running fine, but now it...

I was raking hay and had to cross over a large wind row. This caused the hay to bunch up under my tractor and it didn't want to clear it's self as I continued along and only made things worse. Stopped to clear the hay and smelled something burning. I went around to the side where the exhaust...

I got this Yanmar tiller from my fathers farm. It had been sitting in the weeds for about 20 years. It appears from the ID plate to be a YHT 60 chain drive. I greased it up and topped off the oil bath and it worked fine. Used it to till up my back yard to reseed. It's missing the rear hinged...

I found a wiring harness in a small compartment behind the seat. It's a 1652 cab model, not sure if the platform models have the same compartment. Not sure what it goes to. Checked the radio harness in the headliner and it does not match up. I tried looking up the part number on the label...

Help me out. What is the purpose of the mechanism to lock the clutch pedal in the down position? The two newer tractors I've had, both have this swinging bar below the clutch pedal to lock it down. Is it for storage purposes or when a tractor is not in use for a while? My tractor never sits...

Has anyone else had problems with their bucket level indicator on their Massey Ferguson tractors not being long enough to handle the full range of bucket motion? I have a MF 1652 and managed to destroy the bucket level indicator within the first week. I curled my bucket all the way down and...

I'm new to this forum and have been getting a lot of great ideas from TBN, so I thought I would share my newest addition. I've been using a MF 1528 for plowing snow, pulling logs and removing manure for a few years now. The tractor worked fine, but was underpowered for what I was using it for...
