I have a 1998 Massey 6160 with the electronic pre select shuttle. Normally it behaves and works as it should, but recently it has been having a 'moment', and the back and forward lights flash alternatively with accompanying beeping. It will still travel in the direction that the shuttle has...

I have a cow that is struggling at the moment as the hard ground has made her hooves crack and she is limping a bit. Has anyone any advice or suggestions about effective ways to treat this? Thanks in advance

Hopefully a Westwood Garden Tractor passes for machinery[emoji1] We have a Westwood T1300 which we use for various errands around the farm, but there is a distinct lack of brakes at the moment, when you push the pedal it declutched ok, just doesn't stop. Does anyone know how you or if you can...

We use an old Ford 2000 with a belt pulley on it to drive our mill for rolling oats and beans. Just recently she has been putting some oil out through the exhaust which runs down the manifold. Does anyone know if this is the start of something terminal? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Having a bit of a head scratcher with my seed drill at the moment. It is a 3m MF500 with disc coulters, and I noticed one of the discs on the disc coulter wasn't going round so unbolted it to have a closer look. I can't see any obvious way of taking it apart to change the bearing as it doesn't...

Got a bit of a problem with MF698 we have at the moment. It underwent a engine rebuild which required the front to be stripped down, it then went back together and all was fine. We went to move it the other day after she'd been parked up for a few months, and found it would only turn the front...

I was wondering if anyone can confirm if my understanding on Nmax limits is correct. Am I right in thinking that they are defined for most crops (wheat, barley, OSR, etc) for peas & beans you can't apply any N whatsoever, but for oats there isn't a limit? If this is right does this mean that...

I am after some help with replacing the ram seals on my MF875 loader. The bucket tipping rams were straightforward enough as they were double acting and the ends screwed off. What I need help with is the lift rams which are single acting, and I cant see any obvious way to take them apart...

I am posting this on behalf of a neighbour, but basically the computer under the floor in his 3080 has died and the quote from Massey is somewhere around £700 for a new one. Does anyone know if it is possible to buy a reconditioned or refurbished one from anywhere? As £700 seems a bit steep...

Hi all, I was after some advice on my MF360. It is a 4wd model, but the tyres are suffering due to wear in the steering track rod/bar that goes across from one side to the other on the front axle. Basically it looks like the hole in the axle that the track rod end fits into is worn and this...

I'm a bit new to keeping cattle and need some advice on feeding them over winter. At my disposal I have oats and field beans that I can mill along with beet pulp nuts, I also have hay and haylage. What I could do with help with is what ratios to feed the beans, oats and beet pulp in order to...

I have got a couple of acres of spring beans that someone has asked me to drill tomorrow, the problem is that no one seems to know the rate to drill them at, afraid I don't know the variety but any help would be greatly appreciated. My drill is a 3m Massey 500

In order to make life a lot easier I am looking to find a loader that will fit on my 1988 2wd MF390 for moving round bales and dung handling. I have 3 spools so hoping to get one with a 3rd service as well. Does anyone know which loaders would fit? I have been offered a 80 loader that was on a...
