Try the new tractor database

[bmaverick]

It's well within the capability of ai right now to read a thread and determine what the topic is about, and within our capability to create the system that does that and tags it correctly. With 500k threads, it's a wonderful application of the technology and so far we've found it to be very accurate.

Where we are at right now is we went through a "first pass" to catch the low-hanging fruits of identifying threads for models by the subject line (thread title) content. The next level will be to read the first post as well and identify if a thread title is "problem with steering" and the thread content identifies the make and model. As others have suggested, there's a bit more to the story when you factor in threads that apply to multiple models, such as with attachments or maintenance topics. To answer the question of where comparing tire types go, that would be, for now, in the forums they are in.

We are more likely going to organize the topics by tag with advancements and improvements to our tag pages. For example, tagging all threads about "grading a driveway" and giving users the ability to sort those tag pages by date posted, number of replies, etc.

Please give a heads up when you need the assistance cleanup help in the next phase of this project.

Wow, have you taken on a monumental task!

My knowledge (such as it is) is limited to Massey Ferguson GC series tractors. I did not see a listing for GC1723E (and EB) nor GC1725M (and MB) models. They could easily be lumped together as they are very similar. Likewise, GC1705, GC1710, and GC1715 probably are similar. And GC2300, GC2310, GC2400, and GC2410 probably are similar. Actually, you could probably lump all the GC's in a single grouping.

I also noticed that many models are listed with as MFxxxx, and that may or may not be redundant.

Thanks, and good luck.

Still haven't seen listings for Massey Ferguson GC1723E (and EB) or GC1725M (and MB) models. I'm pretty sure there's a GC1720 model too that's missing.

We haven't made an update to the models yet. There are many models missing in each brand, so we will approach the update one brand at a time. Stay tuned.

@Muhammad I also assist with the legacy Satoh-Mitsubishi machines. Right now, I'm looking at the Satoh-David Brown history connection made machines. Primarily the S350 and S550 with the DST90 engine.

This member uploaded images of the Satoh S500. I can not locate them on TBN.

Satoh S-500 Any Info???

I have a Satoh S-500. I don't know what year. It has a DST90 2 Cylinder Diesel engine. I have had it for about 15 years and am working to get it running again. Need info on fluid types and capacities, etc. I have searched the web and have found nothing about this tractor. Any help would be...

This is for updating the PDF in the pinned thread here,

MITSUBISHI - SATOH TRACTOR INFORMATION, PARTS, AND SUPPORT - updated - REV 3.21

The MITSUBISHI - SATOH TRACTOR INFORMATION, PARTS, AND SUPPORT.PDF has finally been updated. It's no longer in that difficult to read and no possible to search older PDF format. Edwin Krampitz wrote the first edition. He did a fine job at it. However, Ed Krampitz tractor historian passed...

@Muhammad Seems Google and StartPage search engines have noticed the database is functional.

I recently had to do an inquiry into a Yanmar FX32D with a locked engine and how to tow the tractor correctly and safely out of a field acres out from a highway.

The search engines dropped me here,
Yanmar FX32D Resource Page

Keep us posted to assist you in the next phase to clean up the database from duplicates or misleading info too.

Maverick, anybody, what is the solution to tow a dead Powershift Yanmar a long distance out of a field - or forest?

The PS internal clutches seem to drag until the engine is turning the PS internal pump. Towing with that drag can't be good for it.

OK, will do. Once the winter ends, the time to get involved with a project like this diminishes as we are then outside farming.
