MF 451 key?

Casey in Ky · Jun 9, 2015

Old man on one of the farms I rent has lost his key to his MF 451. I don't normally use any of his equipment other than to maybe unload some of mine or possible rake a little. Where and what's the cheapest and quickest replacement?? Would tractor supply have anything? I've got a Massey dealer just over an hour away but I really don't have time for that. Don't suppose a Ford tractor key would fit it?? Thanks

Quickest and easiest is a MF dealer.

Call the dealer ans have them ship two.

The keys for my 533 and 2635 are unlike Ford keys.

If it is the same as the one on my MF 180, they aren't easy to come by. Mine is like BUT NOT THE SAME as a common lawnmower key. I have fashioned a spare for mine from one of the car dealer ads in the mail keys. A little time with a Dremmel and a cutoff wheel...... The slot/switch mechanism is pretty sloppy, and you can approximate something that works. Maybe even a screwdriver would get you by in a pinch. Mine is a mechanical diesel, can be started by shorting start terminal and batt terminal at starter with any convenient metal object.
