[@liamcollins4186]

She was on a square baler and drawing a lot of bales for johnitan and he had a square bale wrapper the gose on the lift arms witch is frearce heavy

[@roberthiggins6401]

Look forward to seeing her getting fixed and sorted Phil. Looks like the spool bracket needs straightening too.

[@RuthJones-iz1ve]

When you get the fixes done, she will be impressive. Good find.

[@philipoconnor2236]

Well wear with her! Hope she's lucky. Your father and uncle will be a great help and source of reference 👍

[@rodgerrodger7551]

Father Phil certainly knows his stuff

[@massy3997]

can't wait to see the massy after it's finished

[@luckyshamrock7241]

Hello farmer phil, nice tractor, love the videos and well done father phil spotting what needs to be repaired😊😊👍👍

[@Clive-wk1wf]

Good man father Phil, I like your thinkin! Keep her workin👍

[@rowandrive1]

Good man father phil .knows his shit .keep her at it .it will do her power of good

[@hjagri1783]

David King electriconics might be able to fix the modular unit they are very good at that sort of thing hope that helps if you need it. Great vid can't wait to see it ploughing.

[@youngfarmer5414]

The pull to stop isn’t standard, we had issue with the electrics for the arms on our 3125 in the end couldn’t find problem, put pipes and a joint to the sister rams and put on the spool works a treat 👌

[@andywilkinson3792]

Nice one Phil glad your happy with the tractor hope you get to were you want it to be. And get it out there working. You shouldn't need a box office tricks to help you plough. We only had up and down leavers . L.o.l from Andy in UK

[@brianmullins5824]

Good stuff Phil as always👍👍👍,top job,front fenders would really smarten it up too Phil!!.

[@alasdairmeredith2711]

I love Massey's but i always thought this one looked ugly but yours looks good and i don't know why!

[@DianeD862]

Just a good clean to make it look good will keep you busy otherwise enjoy your videos and any news Diane 🐸🐸❤️🇮🇪👍👍👍👍👍🇮🇪🇮🇪😘

[@willie6530]

We have a 3080, you have probley tried it but if you flick your lift switch up and down twice it should work

[@seanobrien2782]

Great video Phil lovely tractor🚜👍👍

[@tomflynn5745]

If the arms are welded would the ploughing not pull the arms off of it. I hope she goes well for ye 👍

[@calumbourke4632]

Great video Philip 👍

[@claetuswoodroofe4164]

A trip to Massey salvage in Wexford is needed

[@alexrevie7863]

one of the best tractors ever made

[@mrnate4280]

I really like those tractors. Should be good to go after you get her squared away.

[@hondacivicek4lad459]

Nearly done restoring our massy 3125 datatronic

[@mauricecahill3385]

Would love an invite up to draw grass for a day with her Phil!!!! She will pull like a train with the bigger shoes and hope the resto goes well!!!

[@FARMERPHIL3690]

ill let you know when the vintage silage day is on does be around august time

[@DangerRick]

Excited to see the tractor get done up! Are you going to clean up the big shop beforehand so you have a space to work?

[@FARMERPHIL3690]

id like to think we would anyways haha

[@colmkennedy3109]

Good video Farmer Phil 👍🏻

[@darrenlord8459]

lovely tractor

[@velimirkomericki2362]

Try to measure voltage on battery when tractor works. Alternator needs to give at least 14.4v to "wake up" EHR. Also bad ground could make EHR not working...

[@FARMERPHIL3690]

ive never heard of that before ill give it a go

[@velimirkomericki2362]

@@FARMERPHIL3690 Try it..bad alternator(low voltage charging) cant wake(turn on) EHR..

[@johnn984]

There looks like there’s a savage lock on it for a big tractor

[@cianmccarthy8051]

You’ll get that door fixed handy enough

[@paddyboy557]

Nice one Phil any chance of an update on the forage kale and the cattle on it?

[@FARMERPHIL3690]

kind of a mention of it in tomorrows video but hopefully will get round to it shortly

[@pms146]

How come the yoke looks orange

[@gerrydays1909]

Good video 😀😀

[@barrettagri6705]

I think a man called paudie o connor from ballylongford had it when it was in kerry

[@FARMERPHIL3690]

was he a dairy farmer?

[@barrettagri6705]

No a contractor doing bales and slurry theres another paudie connor there thats a dairy farmer and contractor

[@martindineenoconnor8946]

Didn't he have 2 of them

[@darcycrocker9931]

sick tractor phil !!!

[@dean_ae8691]

What do you think of the valmet engine In the 3690 do you think it’s a better engine then the engine in the Massey 3090 and 6180

[@FARMERPHIL3690]

both engines are good i couldnt say one was better than the other as neither engines ever gave us any trouble

[@aaronobrien5747]

She's some beast of a yoke

[@jamesbyrne4975]

No major problems all little things and for her age not much wrong..can you get front mud guards for her look the part as well as keep her clean

[@FARMERPHIL3690]

i forgot to mention i have the front guards for her

[@jamesbyrne4975]

Ah brilliant will make her look the part can't wait see her working should get farmer Phil logo on bonnet too 😝

[@patrick0connell772]

I was saying yesterday I rather buy tractor like that than a shiny new one yet more buzz from it only shiny new one I could get be a toy

[@charliesawyer5367]

Patrick Oconnell totally agree. Something about the older tractors that just have something the newer ones don’t.

Steering lock ain't the best by the look of it. A boat on wheels lad 🤣 Good tractor by the looks of it mechanically perfect is more important than cosmetics. Fair play Phil and good luck with her

[@nwhitten7306]

Perkins engines stop on the key those valmet engines all stop by cable only!

[@MBLORINSER]

No. I have a valmet engine on 3690 and it's stops turning the key.

If you’re stuck for parts there is a good fella up in Yorkshire England, Richard Hoyland, MF spares, I had the draught control/linkage unit go bad in my 6180 and we got a spare off of him. Might be worth checking out. masseyfergusontractorbreakers.co.uk

plowing is bad for the soil

[@FARMERPHIL3690]

for the type of soil we have if we dont plough at least every 2nd year our crops will be poor from soil compaction as our soil is heavy clay

[@Gustav4]

@@FARMERPHIL3690 that is because you havent worked on building soil carbon and soil structure
