Ratcheting steering wheel question

8NHENRY · May 7, 2023

Has any one seen a steering wheel with a ratchet gizmo on it. I just bought this tractor again and thought I would ask. If you want more pictures of the tractor and the whole story its on the Massey page. Thankyou

That question has come up many times on here over the years.

If you go to the link below and enter ''Kosch'' in the ''Keywords'' search box some of the many threads will come up, along with some info on their mowers.

That must be due to them masseys have a poor steering. It is one that will whip the wheel out of your hands. Compared to a w6 there is no effect on the same ground.

That's why you never hold the wheel with your thumbs on the inside like you're choking a snake. The new modern system I put on my MF202 has an anti backlash feature in the valve.

Thank you for the information, I should've thought about doing the search to see if anything else was on the forum. Yeah after I wrote that I googled the name and they are still in business, I might see if I can get some literature on that system. Thanks once again everybody
