    MF 175 w/MF 236 Loader and front mount hyd. pump

    you will know if head gasket is blown by running with cap off. you will see percolating in radiator but don't confuse this with normal agitation of coolant from flowing in from upper hose

    on top of rearend housing there are 3 "flutes" or reinforcements the numbers are sometimes stamped into the left one standing from behind the tractor looking forward. the numbers you need should begin with 9A.......good luck

    diff. lock

    Your first task is to determine where it is stuck. Either the pedal assembly or the plunger is stuck. Remove the pedal from axle housing, 4 bolts. No oil will leak out as this model has dry brakes. Put pedal housing in vise and try movement. Be very careful if pedal is stuck in housing as the...
