Welcome to the forum. Have fun with your MF. Is yours gear or hydro?

Welcome to TBN. You live in a beautiful area. I worked there a few times in the mid 60's when I was a lineman with Manitoba Hydro.

Hi welcome to tbn
i have had a mf1020 for 22 years
I bought it with 600 hours,now have 1800 or so
I used it for grading ,snow blowing and any other use you can imagine
handy as a shirt pocket
I have had a few small problems,some due to my stupidity,others just normal wear,
most of the hours have been snowblowing,i have maintained 3 km of private road with a front mounted blower
i made a homemade cab out of 1/2 inch lexan from a hockey arena ,no heat dont need it
to mount the snowblower i mount it in place of the bucket ,I made a reverse mechanism and drive a shaft under the tractor to power the 6 foot blower
It isnt fast but does the job.better than backing up
I am sure you will love your little tractor

thanks haroldy
have not had time to get at mine yet other than clean it up, it is a winter project!!
the fishing is still good here and summer projects are still on going.
I am looking forward to getting it inside and tearing it down, not familiar with the 3 cly diesel
but should be fun
