    Massey 390 2wd Loader

    Doubt brackets will fit, and it's not safe / legal to modify mounting brackets from different models of tractors. Even brackets from a 4wd could be different to a 2wd. You need to find correct fit. It will be very hard to get them on that age of tractor. Sorry to be a downer.

    New toy day

    So they are "selling" you a new vehicle at full price with no discount. so keeping the discount themselves. then the mug who buys the used one as x demo at over list price. then if vehicles are on finance they make commission on top again. lots of bites of cherries.

    Deutz-Fahr 5090G bouncing problem on the road

    Try reducing pressure to about 10psi on all wheels and drive around a bit. Not fast, tyres might center themselves on rims at the low pressure. Them put them at 18 rears. 22 fronts. Then try it on road and see results.

    Deutz-Fahr 5090G bouncing problem on the road

    Put the rear at 18 and front at 22. And try it. I only have my rear at 22 for stability when I've got the hedge cutter on tractor, and that weights over 2 ton. And 18 rest of year. even with the post driver it's ok at 18 psi and that is about 2.2 ton.

    Deutz-Fahr 5090G bouncing problem on the road

    Bigger the tyre the less pressure you need for a given load, as the tractor is so light you don't need high pressures. Tyres need a bulge in walls to operate properly. And adjust according to whatever is attached to tractor.. I think rule of thumb is 3 thead bars on ground with given load. Less...

    Deutz-Fahr 5090G bouncing problem on the road

    25 psi too high on back, unless you have a very heavy load on back. Front tyres always need to be 2-3 psi more than back. Make of tyres can make a big difference. When I had my Deutz first it was on continental tyres, total rubbish, and dangerous on road, very twitchy at 55k and hopeless on...

    Cutting hedgerows from 1 March onwards

    As usual the "experts" making rules know f all about the countryside. Bring back August cutting hedges , hard annual cutting every year, cut in dry weather, no mess on fields, as it used to be for yrs. Plenty of birds about then as now.

    Turbo life expectancy

    Always let engine warm up before loading engine, idle engine for about 2-3 minutes before stopping. And oil /filter changed every 250 hrs on tractors, and never longer than 5000 miles on road vehicles. I'm not going to change my routine any time soon. Never needed a turbo, yet.🤞🤞

    MF 6200 series gear shift

    That's what happens. The gears get confused. Light doesn't match gear.and you have to start again. It's quicker to do it slower.

    MF 6200 series gear shift

    That's how you're supposed to change range. I've had 3000,6200 series tractors, never rush the range change, if you do the tractor locks the gearstick to stop damage to gears.
