The 135 is a lovely little tractor and my favourite on the farm, our is a 1968 model with over 9000 hours on the clock. I gave it a paint job and a new canvas roof a couple of years ago which is why it looks tidy. Its used on the scraper all winter then for a bit of trailer work in the summer. A great little tractor

Y is there two scrapers there is nothing be over to the right on the slurry ramp

[@paddydevlin5430]

+TheModelFarmer7740 meant to say there is one over to the right of the slurry ramp

[@thefunkyfarmer]

+TheModelFarmer7740 its an old one kept as a spare

[@paddydevlin5430]

very nice good thinking anyone else would probably sell it

[@moiwilliams170]

our one is a 1965 version, she has 17,000 hours on her, hard to belive but its true

[@thefunkyfarmer]

Yes this was earlier in the year. We try and look after the place, its not very big but its all we've got!

Hi funkey farmer love your Massey 135. I have a 135 to.

[@friesiancowboy]

Loveing your videos! Keep them coming!

[@farmerwillmellor510]

Same here, my favourite tractor to use, very simple and little to go wrong and very economical on diesel

[@thefunkyfarmer]

we put maize silage in the feeders and they get the grass silage from the clamp

[@thefunkyfarmer]

[@daniellebuckley5521]

[@simanoliver5218]

Hi Richard if you watch your video back of your 135 starter motor, you'll see it going up under the bonnet near the lift pump. Have a good Christmas 🐄🚜⛄

[@johndeerguy1]

good videos

[@user-yo6bx2gn7d]

Great job is what the old people say cow dung

[@cormacreilly4745]

i love scraping out the yard i do it at home with a 135 and the same scraper as your own

[@thefunkyfarmer]

The 135 is a great little tractor

[@logster04]

Nice Massey

[@prw34]

Used to do this with a little Dexter tractor was fun :)

[@farmerwillmellor510]

Nice to see videos like this, I like 135's quite a bit. We have one a 1976 model with cab similar to yours, we use to is out one on the scraper but thought it was to good to use ever day on the scraper so we have a MF 550 for scraping and now use the 135 for pasture topping and chain harrowing, it is also very hand for trailer work. Do you use yours for anything other than yard scraping? Yours looks in very good condition for a yard scraper tractor!

[@johnnysmith2893]

Hi Richard, just curious. Do you have any slatted sheds? If not does that mean you don't do any slurry spreading?

[@kroneking127]

i see u got feeders in what looks to be a silage clamp? Do you let you're cattle have the silage as they see fit then?

[@thefunkyfarmer]

sort of, we are a pretty basic set up so dont have a feeder wagon. I guess as long as a system works for you its ok!?

[@cormacreilly4745]

they are a very lively tractor

[@thefunkyfarmer]

They sure are

[@farmerwillmellor510]

Do you scrap out 2 times a day? Will you be uploading any more videos soon of scraping out, I enjoy watching them

[@logster04]

Is it easy farming i live on a farm we milki

[@masseyfergusonman1621]

What front loader did you have before the McCormick

[@thefunkyfarmer]

A Massey one on the 265

[@eriknoren6218]

how often dö you scrape?

[@thefunkyfarmer]

twice a day

[@evanmullally829]

hi do u use the tractor on the manure spreader for anything else ?

[@thefunkyfarmer]

+Evan Mullally no

[@evanmullally829]

Ok

[@logster04]

Do you scrap every day

[@thefunkyfarmer]

yes

[@MrMagnum7220]

Fan is hitting the fan shroud isn't it?

[@thefunkyfarmer]

Correct

[@kroneking127]

ah right, suppose that works alot easier as you dont have to mess around feeding it on the tractor 1 less job?

[@farmerwillmellor510]

Was this before you repainted the 135, can tell you do a good job of looking after it and your cows by how clean the yard is and the tractor
