    Massey 65 starting issue

    Thanks, totally agree. These weren't cheap, no sense in getting chips in those ports.

    Hydraulic fittings

    Thanks, I'll check again. Appears straight as I look at it, but could have a slight taper. Problem is, limited stores around here carry couplers, and my current cylinder has a split wiper, and deep scratch in the rod, and is dripping fluid like a river , and need to get it changed tomorrow.

    Hydraulic fittings

    Manufacturer states 1/2 NPT. Just tightened by hand , no wrench, about 3 turns before hitting that resistance. I'm going to try a different coupler just to check.

    Hydraulic help.

    Ok, yes there's two side by side levers directly in front of seat, mounted on transmission housing. So, they were vertical normally, and I believe I moved the left one forward to drop the 3 point. So the right one controls the pump?

    Hydraulic help.

    Ok, I'm a newbie, so excuse my ignorance. I have a 1958 MF65 gas with a Bush Hog 2400qt loader. The guy I bought this setup from told me to not use the loader hydraulics when you're using the rear hydraulics. No explanation other than that's what his Dad always said. I'm assuming...
