    Vibrator coil

    Yes, I opened it up and disconnected the internal coil (shorted). The photo shows how it’s wired: +12 volts to the coil, coil to the vibrator relay, vibrator relay contact to ground. (Vibrator relay coil is connected in series with the normally closed relay contacts. Energized relay opens NC...

    Have you ever ran a Shaper?

    I restored a Logan shaper a while ago. As they say, a shaper can make anything, except a profit. It takes patience for most tasks, but it’s perfectly suited for machining slots and keyways.

    Best knock off 23 degree tire

    13.6-28 is $372, 14.9-28 is $437. Cropmax 23 degree. These days, that’s a good price.

    Best knock off 23 degree tire

    You don’t mention the size, but check out Miller Tire. They have some “generic” 23 degree tires that are half the price of a SAT.

    Vibrator coil

    On. my Massey 33, I wired up the vibrator with a new ignition coil. I stll used the vibrating contacts. Works good, and only a Massey fanatic would know it wasn’t original.

    Ferguson axle removal and seal repl

    Inner seal is replaceable without bearing or shrink collar removal. Outer seal requires removal of the shrink collar and both outer and inner tapered bearing components. A big job. Im halfway through the process at the moment. Youll need a 20 or 30 ton press and press plates to replace...

    MW Dyno's

    I used a 1500 psi pressure transducer and a speedometer cable sensor to feed a Dataq 1100 data acquisition module that has a USB output to interface with a laptop. Use the Dataq export function to get the data into an Excel spreadsheet. I start to record with the engine at full throttle, no...

    PTO Dyno Chart

    I calibrated the electronics on the rebuilt M&W PTO dyno and plotted a chart for my Massey Ferguson 65 gas tractor. It has a rebuilt engine, so the horsepower readings are pretty good. It's also a cold day. I haven't corrected for temperature and barometric pressure. I think I have a...

    The maximum mechanical gauge reading is 1500 psi, which corresponds to 96 hp at 535 PTO rpm.

    Winter Project: Early Completion

    It?s a M&W PTO I just restored and upgraded. I?ll be testing it out tomorrow with a tractor. It?ll be interesting to compare the mechanical gauge readings with the electronic meter and data logging software readings. I should be able to print out horsepower/torque charts.

    What are you guys doing for winter projects?

    I thought of that. Then the pressure could automatically adjust to maintain PTO at 540 rpm. Unfortunately, there?s not enough room to conveniently mount a gear or sprocket on the throttle shaft for servo control. Maybe I?ll give it more serious consideration after I get the rest of the...
