844john Posted Wednesday at 05:50 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 05:50 PM I didn’t think I’d see the day when the Deere was replaced by a Massey, but rightly or wrongly it’s happened 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the Deere was at about 10,000hrs Mike and she needed a few jobs doing so we thought it was the right time to change her. I was looking for another Deere but couldn’t find what I was after locally and at sensible money when we came across the Massey, and as a loader tractor they seem very well thought of, so we thought we’d give it a go 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a bit of a problem Sean, our other loader tractor that we still have has a Trima loader, so we converted the Deere to a Trima headstock when we got it. The Massey’s on euro, so some attachments will have to be altered but we’ll leave some that we tend to only use on the old tractor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m hoping that a spell will a machine polisher should revive it though. You’re right about the bonnet though, and it has the Visio roof with the glass sunroof at the front, which really makes a difference as well when the loader’s raised Edited Thursday at 05:17 AM by 844john 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The loader has smooth ride which definitely helps though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
