    broken rear wheel studs

    I have a JD510 tractor and noticed that 3 of the 6 studs on the one rear wheel have snapped off. from the looks of them, they have been cracked for sometime. I guess I need to know two things... 1) is there an easy way to get these out (do they punch out, do I need heat???), 2) are these a...

    Classifieds on this forum??

    Hi, I belong to other forums, mostly cars and they all seem to have set aside an area for members to advertise their needs and stuff for sale. Is there a place here or an etiquette for posting stuff needed to buy?? I have an MF 81 HayTender and I need the front PTO shaft bearing housing...

    Massey Model 3 square bailer won't tie

    dyates, being new to all of this, all of what you said is probably true.. I stopped by the local MF dealer and bought a handful of pins and hopefully will get a better "feel" for how to do this... thanks rod

    Massey Model 3 square bailer won't tie

    my challenge now is understanding and setting the density of the bales. I have been breaking shear pins while I experiment with that. that would be great if you can scan and email a copy of service manuals... thanks rod

    Massey Model 3 square bailer won't tie

    Rc, thanks, I understand that parts may be difficult to get, but I got such a sweet deal on the baler that I had to take it... Anyways, i got the baler working this weekend and we got our first 60 bales done and picked off the field. my problem ended up being a spring that provided tension...

    Massey Model 3 square bailer won't tie

    thanks for the advise, I don't see anything obviously wrong, but then again, i don't know what i am looking for... but one side ties, the other doesn't so i will try to mimic what is working... but will definitely look for a manual. thanks rod

    what would you do

    I did read your previous post after I had already sumitted my opinion.. sounds like brakes (if they are drum type). the suzuki diff i had a part was very compact and the guy ran it dry, so it evenutally burned up the bearings and spit the axle out. if the bike has been sitting without moving for...

    Massey Model 3 square bailer won't tie

    dyates, i did notice that there is a tensioner that was loose compared to the other (the other that was actually tying ok) and did tighten it. i don't see anything broken or bent, so maybe i need more tension... thanks rod

    what would you do

    I think I agree with the majority here and say, take the 5 minutes to do some basic troubleshooting so that if you do decide to take it in, you have some idea of the nature of the problem.. 2 secs with a floor jack and you can have both front wheels off the ground and try to spin them by hand...

    Massey Model 3 square bailer won't tie

    Hi, I just registered and joined this forum. I am new to farming equipment and need some help to know if i am going in the right direction. I picked up a Massey Model 3 Square Bailer for a song, it packs the hay in there pretty good, but when tying the string, one side doesn't quite finish the...
