AMEN BROTHER, TELL DA TRUTH, TESTIFY!!! The manual is invaluable. Leave the IT Manual to someone else unless you already know what you are doing and in that case why would you need it? Not much info in the IT. I am going to base this off my MF65. To pull the pump, first remove the seat and drain the fluid, then remove the two bolt cover under your right testicle. Pull out the standpipe. Unbolt the lift cover and lift it carefully out of the way. Mine is as heavy as one person can manage, perhaps more. Get help, there's sensitive stuff down there that could get damaged. Then you should be looking at the driveshaft. Remove the pin and collapse the shaft and remove. Now pull your PTO shaft out the back. Should have four bolts visible, remove these and pull the sway chain plate. Under you will find two allen headed cap screws level with the center of the pTO shaft. This should allow the PTO shaft, bearing, seal and all to be pulled out the rear. Now pull the two locating dowel pins (They are the two small covers mounted on each side of the tractor with two nuts a piece.) They are different so as with everything else, sandwich baggie and label these too. Then pull pump. This is a good time to wipe the belly of all oil and debris left over the years. Be sure to find all little parts previous mechanics have left laying down there. When reinstalling, make sure the control valve is pulled and secured all the way rearward. I can scan and email the page of the MF65 IT manual if you are interested.
