MF 90 seial number.

I just got my uncle's MF 90. Trying to do research on it. Can anyone verify for me what this serial number means? SNM 811998. Standard chassis. Diesel. Dual clutch. 1962. Any other information would be appreciated. I'm also looking for any manuals or advertisements that anyone might be selling.
Thanks in advance,
Lance

According to one site, The "S" stands for Standard (or wide front) , the "N" wasn't in the list of fuel types, and the "M" stands for the two-stage clutch. If it's a diesel, the N should have been a "P" for Perkins, or a "D" for diesel. And the Serial Number puts it into the 1962 timeframe. But, you had all that information. Manuals are available to purchase on this site, as well as free access to digital information on your tractor.

I don't know what the M stands for, but the MF 85/88/S90 never had a two stage clutch. All had a fully hydraulic PTO clutch pack.
