as i have said many times before : I grew up at the Massey
Dealership--have driven about every massey you could drive (or its next of kin) -- we
didn't own the dealership but it was where we went 2 or 3 times a week all
year round (Dad's hangout)
the weekness are the power steering and the loader will exasporate
it...
the Multi-Power was not that big of a problem on those tractors -- if the
PO's did not let it slip when shifting by this I mean SHIFT THE LEAVER!
get it in LOW or HIGH and not halfway in between... of all the Massey's
we've owned only 1 had a multi power go out and it was from cuttings
from rearend bearings that had went out-- 1 quit do to an oring installed
backward at the factory this one didn't go bad it just leaked all the oil
out one night.
the other weak area I know of is the front spindles/wheels they are kinda
light.
DoNOT put to much weight on the rearend ie let it slip /use the
FERGUSONsystem for what its suppose to do...that is the draft control.
they are not perfect machines by any means!
