I just bought this old original 1974 Operator's Manual from eBay, a little greasy but complete, so I scanned it and created a PDF file. It can be found here:

HUGE help in understanding this machine.

Oh, it looks like the printing for this manual was in 1973. Parts of the book mention 4/8 forward speeds, while others mention 3/6 forward speeds, as though they made the change but didn't get all the necessary changes made in the manual. One thing I'd like to see is the ground speed page from an earlier manual, so I can see the speeds in gears for 6 forward speeds, as this manual shows the later 4/8 speed values.

This, and a repair manual is what most people need to answer half to nearly all the questions on these forums. Lately if have seen responses like- 'I don't want to spend money on a hard copy manual, I want people on here to talk me through it for free'.... nice attitude huh?
And a flat level smooth shop floor seems to be the most important shop tool, and I don't even have one of those.
Good find-Keep shopping!
 
I purchased a MASSEY FERGUSON SERVICE MANUAL No. 1448 811 M1. You would be well rewarded to try to obtain this manual. My neighbour did locate the same manual and had it shipped from England.... e-bay..
