I took DavidP's advice and talked to my local M-F dealer about reconnecting the linkage for my hydraulic system. Despite the comments some of you have made about taking the side cover off to access the linkage, the service manager says he thinks (didn't know???) that the top will have to come off to reconnect the linkage. He thinks it is a three hour job. What do the experts on this forum think? Will the top have to come off?
 
Hello Loren,
The side cover will only give access to the roller in the pump control lever. The likely problem with yours is way above that and totally in-accessible from the side cover region. Sadly many younger MF staff will not have the experience that is found in abundance on this site. It will not be so much a case of reconnecting the linkage but re-setting it. The best way to go about this to partially remove the quadrant support bracket when the cover is removed. This way the linkage can be replaced in its correct position. It is essential that the frames are checked to ensure that they are true and that the rollers run where they are supposed to. Three hours would be about correct. The countersunk screw that retains the bracket in the cover can be seized as can the bracket in the hyd cover.
Go back to your MF dealer and try and insist that only someone who is familiar with the 100 series tractors be allowed to work on it.

Thanks, David. I was hoping you would offer an opinion. I have not been on this site very long but it appears to me that you have a lot more experience that most people here. I plan to have the dealer do the work but did want some confirmation that he was not about to rip me off with the time he expects to use.
