Which guard is missing ?

I cannot see pto shaft and flywheel seems covered

Its been edited off, the rear section was missing and the front was an old revolving type, dont wish to criticise but its relly a basic thing nowadays.

Yes but working for diferent farms all over it amazes me what things you see people operating
The other day a operator had to keep stopping mowing because the conditioner shaft kept wrapping with grass
I had a quick look for him and there was no guard on shaft at all so mended it including bearings and wire to stop it rotating all second hand and from his workshop at no cost
Why do people think its fine cose PTO stopped when they are out off cab
PTO shafts only need to bite you once and you are in deep trouble for the rest off your life

Most annoying that I now have to remove the pto shaft every time I leave equipment due to the mobile fraternity however the added benefit is stored in a secure building they do seem to last far longer.

We sometimes have to drop stuff off in a yard nr a road (small side road) but i always used to have balls and pins left in most machines but they all go walkies now
Cannot see that being nome farm types but hey ho
Leave all pins balls etc on tractors now but all machines do not use same pins so its annoying not been able to back up and put arms on from can
Did use bolts in lower pins not linch pins but still went missing
Same old everything that expensive now

Acquired both of these this year and very pleased with them both.

How old does a tractor have to be to qualify as a classic?

 

[76masseyman]

Both classic in my book. The MF is doing well against tin worm.

No it's a 730 and you can't stop it, have a belted sledge for it but needs some work so we "adjusted" the old sledge (cut with gas axe) as the wider bales kept blocking it up. Works a treat now but you really are limited by the sledge as to how fast you can go.

Go flat 10 and buy an Armstrong Holmes

How much weight can I put on the front of a 135 spends all it's time with the front wheel in the air

The least stress on things is a wheel weight, they were fitted to old MF combines

Edit;
found these for you!

Can remember the old MF780 combines.If you stopped quick going down a steep hill (thats if the brakes worked)you felt like you could go arse over tip.
