What model MF do I have and what does it weigh?

[Bristlecone]

I have a MF industrial loader -- Perkins A4203 diesel, shuttle shift transmission and MF34 loader. It has served me well around my ranch, but it has no PTO, so I am thinking about replacing it with a PTO equipped tractor.
My first question is -- can anyone identify what specific model this is? (picture attached) My best guess is a 1970s model MF 30, 30B or 31. Tractor S/N is 9A118913. Second, max load on my trailer is 5200 lb -- judging by the way this MF is built, it looks pretty heavy. Any help on how heavy this machine is with loader? Third, what might be a fair asking price for this machine?

Looks like a MF 3165 to me. Check out the specs. at Big Dean's site.

That tractor is a 1974 MF30 industrial

Welcome to TBN. It's good to have you here. Lately, we have been having more questions about MF utilities and industrials, it will be good to have your experience on board.

Ditto welcome to the board BigDean always great to have another Massey man on board.
Now to the orginal thread if I had a loader tractor as heavy duty as yours I would be trying to keep it and buy a new one too.

Howdy, BIGDEAN,

I have a MF30 with a MF34 Loader. I have looked through the Operator's, Service and Parts Manuals and have not found how much hydraulic fluid I will need to do a drain/refill on the loader!

Is there anyone on here who might have a clue?

I see this is an old thread, but I will give it a try anyhow.
