I'm wanting to install a set of rear hydraulic hookups on a 2013 Massey Ferguson 1533 tractor. I don't need any controls because most of my 3 point attachments are controlled on the 3point itself anyway. (John deere wood splitter etc). A little background on me, Ive built my own CNC plasma...
New owner of a used MF1533L, year unknown, 599 hours.
Engine starts easy and runs smooth but it has no power in the rear-end but Front End Loader works fine.
With nothing attached on the back, RPM set to 540-mark, turning PTO on (and the lever either already in 540 or starting in Neutral then...
Does anyone know of a MF dealer who has a hydraulic chute rotator for my 2360 snowblower? My dealer tells me that MF switched sub-manufacturers and now sells an updated blower that's completely different. I've tried contacting the Canadian manufacturer of this blower but no response (they do not...
Good morning, I have a 1984 Massey Ferguson 1030. The other day it was like 5-10 degrees outside, I get my tractor running to plow some snow, the hydraulic system for the loader wouldn’t work, I got that going and has 4wd for about 150’ and it stopped working. Is this a contaminated hydraulic...
It's really cold here in Indiana. I scraped snow off the driveway yesterday. Everything was fine.
Then some one was stuck last night on the hill. So I brought a load of gravel there. I turned it off.
When I restarted it the fuel was on really high, past 540.
When I turned the fuel throttle...
Hey everyone,
I picked up this beauty a few weeks ago. It's a 1959 with the gas Continental engine. It runs great and a nice tractor to drive. The gas engine sure starts a lot better than my 130's Perkins diesel (you can see it in the back ground). Any one have any tips for me?
Recently purchased a 1987 mf1010 , seemed to work great , then it refused to move when the first snow came and tried the snowplow
First checked and topped up tranny/hyd fluid no change
Then thought maybe plugged or frozen moisture in filters ,I plan on ordering new ones
Upon further...
My tractor suddenly stopped cranking with the key. So, I tried to jump it off and it would not crank.The fuel gauge and temp gauge were not moving when I turned the key to the accessory position, and when I turned the key to crank the tractor- nothing, no sound and no crank.
I replaced the...

Hello all,
Yesterday we became the owners of a nice 1969 Massey Ferguson 3165. It has the model 200 loader and model 222 backhoe.
I have a few questions about this tractor. The shift boots are non-existent, are replacements available?
The transmission fluid needs to be changed asap, what...
I have a 2001 massey ferguson 471. When I turn the key on the gauges don't always come on. When thay don't come on you don't hear the fuel pump come on. Any help
I need help i have a 1528 massey and my hydraulics seem to whine and pulse when cold and are weak when warm I don't know what to do next I have replaced hoses but wondering if I need to rebuild the cylinders or if I can tell if I need to do that or change the pressure relief valve ? Thanks in...
I’ve got a 2008 Massey Ferguson 1528 that I’ve owned for about 10 years. It’s been an outstanding tractor and has amazed me what a workhorse it’s been. I’d like to upgrade to something larger with a hydrostatic transmission and will run a larger hoe. I like to work on things, and have been...
I have a massey ferguson 1540 & am not sure if the linkage is regular agri linkage size or smaller compact tractor linkage - how can I measure or find out? silly question maybe, but I dont have an owners manual
Bought this tractor for $400 a year ago. Just got it set up to start working on it. Don't even know where to start. But, I can't find the serial number. It does have a Z-120 Continetal Engine and I got a rebuild manual but nothing on the rest. Don't know the date of manufacture. Haven't seen a...
Hello all
I replaced the ignition switch and now I have a No Crank-No Start situation. The dash lights come on but that's all. I'm thinking maybe a bad safety switch. Can some please explain how to test or "jump" the safety switches in order to test them. I have the seat, PTO, & the...
After almost 10 months of waiting we've received our new MF 6S.165 tractor. I have almost 45 hours in it so far. Wondering if there are any other S series owners on this forum who might be interested to link up in this thread. I've learned a few things and have questions about a few things.

So looking for a new /used tractor- I have looked at the MF-1835/1840 and the YanmarYT235- but for less $$ or the same I can get a TYM 474 which has more HP and more options as std- So why is the MF/Yanmar more $$- Are they that much a better tractor and if so why??- thks for the advice-
Hi I have a massey ferguson 165 deisel tractor. I think it's a 1972 (9A 139627). It had a generator I think and an external regulator. Also has switch underneath oil pressure gauge. The wiring has been worked on by the previous owners. It is in complete shambles. The previous owner said just to...
Hi all,
I have a 1965 Massey 35 with a petrol (gas) engine. Being in Australia, the engine is a Standard 87mm, which I believe is different to the Continental that North American 35's have.
I'm searching for a manual to assist with an engine rebuild. I have a pdf copy of the widely available...
Can anyone give me a part number for the rear hydraulic drain plug, or the size, thread etc? I bought this tractor and was changing fluid and noticed previous owner put a broken sensor of some type in as the drain plug and it has to much wiggle when putting in back in. Thanks
Not sure where to put this, so fingers crossed. I am an old member who just re-registered. My 1992 MF 390 is making weird rumbling noises. It's done about 6,000 hours despite what is on the taco. The rumbling is intermittent and most apparent (sometimes!) when cutting revs to tick over. It...
Has anyone experianced their hydraulic module failing in there MF tractor. The PowerShutttle version. Mine has failed 2 in the last 5 years, seems like a real high failure rate. thanks
Im trying to determine the best way to add power steering to my 1020, whether it be retrofitting something or tracking down a factory setup. If anyone has pics of the powersteering setup on their 1020, i would appreciate you posting them to give me an idea of how it’s supposed to go together...
Bought a Massey Ferguson 1260 tractor a few months ago only to find out the head is cracked and unfixable. Having a hard time locating a new cylinder head. Any suggestions where to go?
Hi,
I have a Massey ferguson 135, the wires to the reR have been cut and taped up to not be used. Im trying to get the rear lights working again and have discovered the wire that that shows is live when the light switch is switched on and another wire that is constantly live. With the wire that...
Hi all,
I have an issue where my 2012 GC2410 tractor would sputter and lose power after 10 to 15 minutes of warm-up when given throttle or under load. It seemed to idle ok though. I added some fresh fuel but maybe I should’ve dumped the existing before adding. I did run the tractor though...
Hi just bought my new massy 1725 and the seat is about to kill this old man any one change out the seat on one for something softer and if so where did you find it would love some help with . Love the little guy just a little rough on me had lower back worked on thanks
Can someone please tell me what this tag means on my radiator 532540M91? I bought this tractor and it needs a new radiator but that number does not seem to exist. I am still trying to figure out the size of the tractor because the serial number tag is missing.
I tried to make it short and sweet. I can't stand informational video's that start out with the guy sipping his coffee, showing his dog and you have to get his life story before you get to what you want. This video is well under the 5 minute mark. Hope it helps show what you're in store for when...
Hi,
I have a MF35 with a front end loader fitted which requires new front tyres. I was looking for some thoughts on what type of tyre to choose, particularly around the choice between tri-rib or implement (which have a much lower tread profile. It currently has implement tyres on the front but...
My dealer is baffled by this problem, they had the tractor for almost 4 weeks. I guess a computer update was supposedly the cure. It was returned to me and was not the cure. I want to stress the time(s) in the video that the occurrences happen. My MF 1740M has plenty of power and torque until...
There is an update to the first three posts now: post #18 12/7/24.
How Massey Ferguson GC 1723 & 1725 hydraulics are plumbed - part 1
A lot of this should be applicable to other GC model tractors. Also, as I describe, I am new to all this so please point out any errors. Sorry, very long post...
I am trying to determine what model tractor I dragged home!
Across the hood it has what is left of the words Massey Ferguson Dieselmatic.
Did these come in a model 50, or just in a model 65? I pulled it out of the woods where it had been sitting for about 5 years, and dragged it home. It...
Need some help... I have a MF 4707 that keeps displying the fault code 00.1.31. The issue happens quiet often.... the fuel gauge goes to empty and the buzzer comes on. According to the code, it is the in tank sending unit. Anyone have experience removing the fuel tank and replacing the unit...

I have having an issue with my MF 255.
After sitting for a while I seem to have issues with the lift. When I first start the tractor it just won't lift, even after it warms up. I can get off tractor and try and move the lift with my hands up and down and it seems to work. I then connect my...
MASSEY FERGUSON 54" FINISH MOWER DECK MF2320 FOR GC SERIES 1710, 1720, 1723 & 1725. I bought this new with my tractor in 2019, but soon realized the tractor is too heavy for my yard, so it's been sitting in my garage for the last 4 years. I only used it 5 or 6 times before accepting that I...

Selling my (June) 2022 Massey Ferguson GC1725MB Tractor including a WOODS GSS54P Grading Scraper and a Loader pallet fork attachment for some light pallet moving I did. Was mostly used for flattening gravel driveway, digging, and moving materials but didn't use it as much as I was originally...
So, after years of research and test driving tractors, I finally pulled the trigger on a new tractor. This was a tough decision for me and and I went through a lot of stress and shopping to get to this purchase. There is not a lot of information out there for the Massey 2860M and I want to share...
I want to install a radio in my Massey 4710. I have pulled the access plate for the radio but can not locate the antenna cable. Has anyone installed a radio and give me an idea of where to look.
Morning. Im in a pickle. I have a Massey Ferguson 1030 Compact tractor with major massive engine problems. I bought it two years ago and it was running really well. The engine seized, threw a rod, some major seals are missing(found on dismantling) and other problems that we think brought on the...
Hello all, first post.
I just bought a 2006 Massey Ferguson 1547 Shuttle shift, with 740hrs. And I am good with all of the functions and operations. BUT, I am hoping that someone could give me advice (and hopefully part numbers ?) So I can plumb in Auxiliary Hydraulics, likely one set of...
Is there someone out there that knows if I could install a backhoe on a Massey 1526 2012 ? I would have an opportunity to get that tractor and a Massey 1575 backhoe. Do some one knows if it would fit ? Thanks
So me and my neighbor use a 1970s era Massey 31 industrial logging tractor it has a new power steering pump (gear drive off the front gears of the engine) new hoses and cylinder, it steers fine when you first fire it up and take off but once the engine and pump get warm you have to lift the nose...
Greetings All!
Just a general topic question:
With all the tractor talk and newer brands, rebranding, emerging models and buyouts, where is Massey Ferguson in all this? I never see reviews, or comparisons including MF. Are they a "has been" brand now? Do they fail the current markets? Poor...
Hello all.
I have a problem going on with my Massey Ferguson 20 Industrial with the 6 Speed shuttle transmission. It has a two stage clutch, no multi power or independent PTO.
Tried using a bush hog the other week, and noticed the PTO was slowing down (mower noise changed pitch), but my...
We have a Massey fergerson 1235 tractor with 1464 loader. we had to change the hydraulic hoses from loader to valve assembly. Does anyone have a diagram of where what hose goes into each valve port? Thx
I bought a regular A Frame toolbar at an auction and this came as part of the lot. Trying to figure out what it is and what I might do with it.
Thanks,
Chris
I have a 2006 Massey Ferguson 492 4wd with 1070 Loader and Cab. The perkins diesel engine runs very well and has been gone through already with cleaned fuel tank, cleaned fuel lines and injectors, along with a new injector pump (old stuff damaged prior from bad fuel). A new clutch has also been...
Just wanted to post an issue I had with my CB85 backhoe from Massey Ferguson, and get some thoughts on where to go with it. And maybe help someone else who might find themselves with a cracked hoe.
This backhoe has something like 100 hours on it. Bought it new with my tractor (MF 2850E) in July...
We were seeding and while turning around the tractor 'popped out of gear', anyway, it stopped moving forward. No broken linkages. Steering and loader no longer work either. Valves still work for loader will go down. It was running warm a few times because of plantmaterial on screen; removed it...
Pre-COVID, I was going to buy a Kubota M5-111 but, COVID hit before it could be delivered and all they got were "chicken coop" tractors which wouldn't work for me. Supply chain shortages and general price gouging due to limited supply and huge demand seems to be subsiding so, I'm back in the...
Has anyone attempted to install a third function kit on 2860 yet? or anything similar? The loader is FLX 2815. Talked to the dealer and they told me was very hard to do and that those who attempted to do it start and bring it to them to finish. Not sure how true that is. The hardest part looks...
I am have some real issues with my tractor not starting. I replaced the fuel filter and can't seem to get the air out of the system. I have tried to follow all instructions but it's just not working.
I think one of my problems may be that my fuel lift hand pump doesn't work. (It doesn't seem to...
I have been trying for 6 months to find an AGCO ACP0475810 Suction Strainer for my MF2607H tractor. Does anyone have a source or an extra one laying around they would be willing to sell? This supply change situation is beyond frustrating. Thanks!
Hey all.
Been a member here for a while but only posted once before, back in 2019 I think.
Anyway, we've had a MF 1433 tractor for a number of years, not sure what year it actually is (we inherited this) and I don't have a manual again due to losing my cell phone which had the agco manual/app...
Hoping for some advice and opinions on selecting a tractor.
Have about 240 acres that has been pretty woefully neglected over several years. Want to get it whipped up into better shape over the next three years.
Regrade and maintain approximately 5 miles of dirt/gravel roads on the property...
I just bought an 1835M with 200 hours. It comes with a bucket and brush hog. I'm needing to move some pallets around so I need forks. Fork options seem to be either a pair that attaches to a bucket or I can remove the bucket and use the forks as sort of the primary frontal mechanism. I have 2...
Dropped a tractor off in March, due to no forward or reverese...really no transmission icons at all. The dealer didn't actually look at it for about 2 months and if there was another dealer half way close we may have even moved it there. fast forward to this week end of July, still no tractor...
Hello! I am having some weird problems with the engine on my GC1720TLB, just did routine maintenance a few hours ago. It seems to run okay at idle but when I increase the throttle it sounds strange and is very smoky. Appreciate any tips or things to look for!
Good day. I have the above tractor and recently noticed that the flashers do not work. I hear the flasher unit clicking, but no rear lights. Tractor is not abused and used for what I would consider normal homeowner tasks. Checked the wiring harness and no tears, rips or scrapes. Fuses all meter...
I'm a first time poster and first time tractor owner. I have searched up and down on the internet and this forum and couldn't find others with my same symptoms, and none of the proposed solutions for similar issues have worked for me. My maintenance experience up until now has been servicing...
Hello,
Does anyone here recommend someone or a shop who can re-seal the injector pump on my 1998 Massey Ferguson 231? I’m aware I’d have to ship it. It is dripping diesel where the rotor head goes into the pump housing. There’s an o-ring there. I’d like the whole pump re-sealed since it has to...
Coming up on a new tractor purchase for the farm and my land clearing business, have a 5075e on order currently but have been giving the 4710 a hard look at only a price difference of 20k. Anyone who’s drove one or the other and could give some insight would be great. Both look like great...
I had a few questions about the hydraulic chute rotator for the 2360 snowblower. I can’t seem to find a part # for the kit anywheres. I currently have the electric rotator but I am sick of the speed and how it freezes up every time I am out. Does anyone know if it is a simple bolt on kit? Or is...
Good day
We recently bought a secondhand Massey Ferguson 165 tractor (year and hours unknown). The tractor is fitted with a MK2 hydraulic pump. The lift or pump however do have so issues.
When we try to hook and pickup/lift heavy implement (slasher) the tractor does not want to lift the...
Hi,
I just got a used MF1754 with a DL135. So far everything is great, but when trying to switch from a bucket to a bale spear (SSQA plate) I noticed that the curl/dump between the left and right side are not moving at the same pace. One side is always ahead of the other. This makes it...
Well after 2 years I finally got a flat front tire on my little Massey. When I took the tire to my local ag central they managed to tear up the side wall on the inside just above the bead trying to take the tire off the rim. Long story short they didn’t tell me what they had done but said it...
Hey guys. I've been reading your discussions for months but just joined today. I bought a Massey Ferguson 1526 (25HP) a few weeks ago with a box blade and I'm looking at getting flail mower now. This is my first tractor and I'll be using it around my property and as an addition to my small...
I just bought the MF 1723E with loader, blade, box-blade. I bought it with the expressed intention of grading my gravel driveway. However, it seems the 3-point hitch does not float. Now every bump and pothole has been multiplied several times. The driveway is far worse than before; one bump...
well hello everyone!!!
last May I've purchased 75 acres of land in northern Ontario Canada right next to my old man where I grew up, he owns 75 acres as well. Once in possession of the land I purchased a Massey Ferguson 60hp e series hydro and I had a few question about it and that’s how I...
Hello everyone. I am currently adding a MF 838 loader to my MF 698 tractor (with cab). Has anyone either added a joystick control in the cab? I found a Prince joystick valve block on Surplus Center that seems that it would work, but the hydraulic lines would need to be run inside the cab. Not a...
Hi, our Massey 4609 loses about a litre of oil while running the hammer mill. We would not know where it goes, but when we work it a bit harder it blows it all out of the smokestack - soot all over!
Checked the turbo -leaky seal could cause this- seems to work fine.
Dealer thinks a leaky valve...
I have a 1993 Massey Ferguson 1020 gear driven 4wd tractor with 1600 hours on it. Yesterday while going to park it a sudden noise just started randomly. It sounds like pebbles bouncing around inside of the engine. It does it while idling, driving around, really any time the engine is running no...
