    Agri-cutter flexible couplers

    I have a old Agri-Cutter 8' rotary mower, and I am looking for some replacement flexible couplers that go between the gear boxes. Does anyone have a part number, or know of what other brand of coupler would fit.

    Hesston 560 round baler monitor

    I have a Hesston 560 round baler that makes good bales, but I'm having problems with either the monitor, or auto sequence box. Does anyone know of someplace in the U.S. that can test, and or repair them. It just started acting up right at the end of hay season so I want to see if I can get it...

    Lights on a 135?

    Lights were optional. My brothers 135 didn't have any lights so he went with the UK style lights since his needed a new grill anyways.

    Paint scheme for 135 late 60's

    I painted mine the same as my brothers 1972 135 (and his 1965 150 is painted the same way). From the front to rear flint grey metallic, red sheet metal, and wheel centers, sliver mist metallic on the grill/side panels, and the outer wheels. I didn't use MF paint so it's not exact.

    need advice about what paint to use to repaint attachments that stay outdoors

    I painted my 2135 with Rustoleum using acrylic enamel gloss hardener, and thinning it with acrylic enamel reducer. I use the tractor to shred pastures letting mesquite branches rub against my brush cab, and it barely if at all gets scratched. It sits in a shed with no walls so it still gets...

    New MF165 Onwer with Questions

    Block the front wheels so it can't roll, jack up the rear end until the tires are just off the ground, and block it up. Un-hook the rods going the brake levers, turn the tire while tightening the adjusting nut until you feel brake just start to drag. Put the rods back on, and adjust them so both...
