I ordered the MF20 service manual from this website yesterday but not sure when it will get here...
I bought a MF20 with MF32 loader and rear 3pt/PTO yesterday. The seller claimed the steering worked fine when he got the tractor (of course) but it just quit and he hasn't owned the tractor long, I would guess maybe a year or so. Everything else seems to work fine, going out to adjust the brakes after I post this.
I am trying to figure out where the power steering filter may be on this model. It has the round steering pump on the right side (opposite side as the lift pump), not the kidney shaped unit I see on the agco parts diagram that has an internal filter. The unit is full of fluid, looks to be just red ATF. Since the pump appears to be full with fluid, I figure the next step is to replace the filter to see if that is causing the steering not to work. I am hoping the service manual will show this type of pump. I don't see any major leaks and would think the fluid would be low if there were a leak.
serial 9A I759I2 (guessing the I's are the stamp that was used for a 1, but it is definitely an I)
