It's not so much "mighty men", there is a knack in pitching a bale. You need the proper fork for a start. Not what we call a pitchfork, that was for...

Gawd,zaza! Your pitchers must have been mighty men. I can't imagine anyone here pitching one bale, never mind two! As for "good days", seems to...

Excellent post zaza. Thank you! I was not familiar with the 701, and had to look it up, but it's design evolution is clear: a stationary baler...

Pah, you're all too soft today. :D We used to pitch little bales all day long onto trailers with a bale fork (I still have 2 forks) and we had a...

I started my contracting career with a Massey 701 baler, same as the chap is using with the MF 35X. Called a nodding donkey because of the design of...

Yeah John, I remember lugging those rectangle bales - my first summer job (age 12) was working on a farm, which included haying for about 150 head of...

Sounds odd to fuse opposite corners? Usually its one fuse for one side and another for the other side? Has someone miss-connected the loom feeds...

Hello there, its highly likely its the switch which selects the fan speed. In higher speed settings it fails quickly. They are very cheap but...

A very kind offer, thanks FF. I think I know where to find the serial number, but as I remember, it is not very clear. I'll take a look later. JV

HiI am from Poland so my English is not the best.I have a Massey Ferguson 6150 tractor with this pump - I would like to increase the dose slightly,...

Well we were heading to this next option which I think would be a good idea still. Send me a picture of the machines serial number ID/plate and I...

Hey FF, take a bow young man, coz you seem to have fixed the problem by remote control. The need to test the solenoid as you suggested has been...

FF - contemplated your post today as I went about other work, and I think you are correct: I should test the solenoid (It's a Woodward 1756ES). ...

More good questions! It *might* be possible to jumper the solenoid from a battery, but it would be a fiddle which might not prove anything. I see...

Yes, sounds like it the solenoid, either its been set up wrong or its adjustments have moved, or perhaps the solenoid has an internal issue? or is...

Thanks FF - good points all, as usual :):) The injection pump is an in-line unit, and the solenoid pulls the stop lever via a Bowden type cable...

Google says that the error code is - I'm assuming your solenoid is the rack-puller type direct onto the injection pump stop, or via a control...

Precisely! Will Darwin's principles apply? ;):rolleyes: JV

I think that has been their big advantage having just the main road connections top and bottom to patrol. Boy has said that its been mainly merchant...

Problem solved - I think! First, disconnected the flywheel sensor - starter wouldn't operate, so I established that the computer needs a signal....

Crikey, missed all the fun! I reckon that Gee's message or link for the attachment when handled by your mail server and then posted by yourself...

On further thought, is the flywheel sensor simply reporting that the engine is turning over at too slow a speed (for whatever reason) or is it...

Yes, that's it! JV

Yep, that's my server. Mystery continues!:confused: JV
