New Holland TS115A engine smoke

[grangenolvinfarm]

Put the TS115A under agitator today and when put her revs up smoke was coming heavily enough from manifold on top of the engine, white smoke.
anyone have any ideas? Can I keep it working for the few days or is it serious?

If from the exhaust manifold it is either a blown gasket or, just as likely, a bit of oil seepage burning off the manifold and head due to it having the first bit of full power/full load work in quite a while.
Only you can tell what’s really going on and make a judgement as to the wisdom or risk of carrying on working it.

There is a bit of oil seepage alright.

Is there oil in it? Coolant level ok? Radiators and coolers spotlessly clean? Air filter clean? Fan belt tight, in good condition and tensioner working as it should , If so then crack on and keep an eye on it. If exhaust or manifold is blowing then make sure the heat won’t melt sonething
