    MF 50 hydraulic lift

    I was very certain to get the levers on the correct side. I replaced the top link draft plunger and wasn’t sure about the adjustment. I wonder if it could have caused it? Yep, I thought to myself when I replaced all those parts “what could go wrong with a pop off valve”! Wish ida spent the...

    MF 50 hydraulic lift

    A valuable lesson that will not be forgotten. I believe when I get my cover off it will be a mess in there. At least one of the studs holding the cylinder on stripped through the nut.

    MF 50 hydraulic lift

    Well a bit of update. I adjusted everything best I could and replaced what was needed. When I fired it up the lift arms rose up with no response to levee position until a loud bang occurred about the same time I got the key off. I panicked and couldn’t get on the clutch or something could...

    MF 50 hydraulic lift

    Well I’m working on getting the draft plunger out and noticed the cam on the shaft the lift arms hook too is grooved where the roller rides. No other wear point is like that. Can this 3/32 groove be made up for with linkage adjustments? My wife is bound to cut me off soon so I’m trying to...

    Any success welding cracked rims?

    I just wanted to thank you for the video warning. I always remove tire to weld, but regularly use torch to help free a stuck wheel and hub. Never heard of this.

    MF 50 hydraulic lift

    I can’t tell you how much I appreciate the pics and help. Got it tore apart and, 1 I did indeed miss the hole in the pump, 2 one of the shafts had popped out of the hole it slides through, 3 once I popped end of shaft back in I noticed that my levers do not locate side by side but in single...

    MF 50 hydraulic lift

    Strange, I pulled the valve block off and reinstalled the tube and top cover plate now there’s no response at all with draft or position. I can’t get my mind to understand that.

    MF 50 hydraulic lift

    Thanks JDD, it’s just quit raining so I’m goin out to get started. The bypass on the aftermarket valve spools seems very stiff. I’m gonna remove and replace with factory plate first to eliminate the easy stuff. Appreciate the pics!

    MF 50 hydraulic lift

    Folks, I have a 50 continental gas that has had some three point lift issues. Because the arms never raised fully I robbed a cylinder off a baker and made a power top link to get my 4x5 bales off the ground for transport. I recently installed a hydraulic two spool controlled since my big...

    HP required for NH 846

    Yeah, what is surprising is in 1965 they could make a tractor that 60 years later, is still routinely baling me out when my bigger, new tractor is falling apart.

    HP required for NH 846

    Any advice on minimum hp needed to make hay with NH 846. I read the specs but poor farmer that I am, I’m in a bind and only have my trusty MF 50. I’m on flat land and have to get up what’s down then I can work on my big tractor. Probably under ten bales unless I cut them down in size.

    land plane
