[AT] Massey Furgeson Back hoe attachment

[charlie hill]

Update.

I bought the 3pt backhoe I mentioned in the message below.  Got a good deal 
on it and I'm tickled.  Haven't had a chance to run it yet as I needed to 
make a few minor repairs and I need a 1 3/8 six spline PTO to 7/8", 1/4" 
keyway adapter but unless something is wrong with the pump I'm sure I did ok 
on the deal

I would like to have some more information about this unit but web searches 
haven't turned up much of anything.  If anyone can help I'd appreciate it. 
Year of manufacture, specs., manuals or information on places that have 
manuals,  pump capacity,  HP requirements, etc.  I haven't checked the MF 
store yet.  I suspect they can help me out as well.

It is a MF model 1017 backhoe, series 5269, serial # 000020

Thanks

Charlie
