Just bought this tractor. The seller showed me most of the controls but I am finding a few more.
Down by my right foot is a dipstick into the case. A lever is next to it. The lever was wired all the way to the right. The d/s is low. Where should I add oil and what type oil? Also there is a hand lever next to the draft control, what is that for?
Thanks for being there.
 
Dont really know about MF 30...But you sound new to tractors.Do yourself a BIG favor and order an owners manual for your new tractor.It will answer all your questions-plus some you didnt know you needed to ask. A book is available right here from YT,less than 40 bucks.The cheapest 'part'/accessory you will ever buy for your tractor.You will be glad you did! Happy tractoring!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
I did a search for a 30D manual. no return. Guess I'll call the # tomorrow.
I have never driven a tractor before. I am one of 200 homesteads down a five mile dirt road. I have been using a 1966 adams grader. No hydraulics ( gear activated) no power steering and NO BRAKES! I have been trying to upgrade for 10 years but the members weren't behind me. I am almost 70, just go a prosthetic shoulder implant and I can't climb into the grader anymore. No one else will drive it except a guy at the front of the road and he only goes from his house to the pavement . I live at the back of the road and I get disgusted first so I end up doing it. I finally have a tractor that is not a widow maker. I just need a little help getting my wings.
 
I have never heard of a MF 30D either. Could you check if you have missed a part of the model number. The old Ferguson 30's were only gas, no D in model number, then there was a MF 130 that I think was a diesel, Then the MMF 35 that was avaible as a diesel. So please check that model again, I think that is why you are not getting any replys.
 
There was a MF 30 'indusrtial'.Similar to the 202 workbull,it had that strange 'reversing' pedal under your right foot.They had the 'same' tin as a 165.Some of them were fitted with a backhoe.They came yellow but some have been painted the 'standard' MF red/silver
