Sorry video is a little late this morning, cattle went for a wee wander on us 🐄. Hope ya’s enjoy. 👍
Are u going to put new lights on ur digger back and front and beacons on ur digger too
until you find a paper copy of the maunal, here is an online pdf version threeways.dockreyapartments.com/motorised/tractor/massey_ferguson_mf_50b_full_service_manual.pdf
Do you want to buy a 4wd 50D4.😊
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Loving your channel iv few acres in Galway need to top rushes as grounds been neglected over the year s wondering if you or any subscriber s have any tips for a good flail topper for back of quad ,hope you don’t mind me asking ,keep up the good work 👍
'Burying an odd boyfriend' had me cracking up :D We never stop being a Dad.
Loved it myself 😂
Me too 😂
Nice one, we have a 50B too, replaced a few seals etc already. The manual throttle is to the right hand side of the seat down on the floor, sticks out the very base of the seat. The big lever on the right is for the diff lock. The square plate in the toolbox with the 4 holes is the drive flange for the hydraulic pump, and the shaft with the gear is one of the hydraulic pumps gears. If you ever need to replace the pump shaft it is a reverse thread (left hand) we had to do the rubber dampers on the flange a while ago and the drive coupling sheared. White house hydraulics still do bits for the pump and the drive couplings. SJ spares did the rubber dampers and most of the seals we got from sparex and malpas tractors.
Very informative post.
As you sit looking out the front window, there should be a hand throttle down on the floor at your right hand, under the seat. We have a standard clutch and gear 50B. Best machine ever was made. That's where the hand throttle is. Good luck with your machine. Im looking forward to seeing her in her former glory.
Adrian, being as meticulous, tidy and thorough as he is, I think that over time, we can expect to see this be eventually fully restored with a new paint job. Adrian may be thinking of only fixing what is necessary at this point in time, but I'm pretty sure that it not being 'complete' and looking good will bother him little by little. In this video, he spoke about changing the plastic glass for a different and better substitute. I'll wager that this substitute eventually will be replaced with proper glass. ...and so on and so forth...This is what I like about Adrian. He looks after his equipment so that it looks after him.
Great machine.
Probably easiest to look for a 3 lever spool block for the loader, rather than an extra slice.
We at Hydraseals Hose & Bearings still keep all the hydraulic Ram seals for these machines in stock.....
Is that for burying the money, no Cavan jokes. Great purchase for the farm, very handy and will do the same job as a machine at twice the cost. When I seen you with the shovel cleaning the drains I thought that man needs a wee digger. 😀
You will never be without one now. Impossible to imagine not having one after you get your first.
Adrian, I'm in no doubt you will make some job of that 50B! Will be shining like a new pin in a couple of months!😁Can always see you have your dad and family in mind with all your decisions.. Great to see :)
What a great project Adrian, look forward with the updates 👍
Looks like you have a nice winter project! Enjoy the rebuild...
Fair find, I’m sure you’ll get it in shape soon.
Well ware Adrian. Best of luck with your new machine,looking forward to seeing you work on her and work with her 🍀
Looking forward to following this project Adrian, I’m sure father phill will be able to point you in the right direction with parts and things? If previous projects are anything to go by, she’ll be winning local shows next year 😉
You're so fun to watch & listen to when you explain everything! Thanks for your great videos!
Well done Adrian a very useful and worthwhile purchase, given time and knowing from your previous blogs you’ll have everything working as it should be, and maybe a new coat of paint to cheer it up and make you proud it’s yours. We’ll all looking forward to see you working on it and improving it over the oncoming months great content for the channel as always. Good luck.
Love, love, love your optimism. You're gonna love getting stuck in to that project. " It's missing a door, but it came with it." Laughed out loud, Adrian. Thank you for a smashing video. 😊
Great video Adrian, I’m sure you will get the Massey up to your standards. Good luck with her. Enjoyed watching. 👍🏼
Adrian ya have made my day! My uncle had one of those when I was young but sold it before I was old enough to appreciate it! Really looking forward to all the upcoming content!
Great stuff, looking forward to seeing the videos on it to come!
I have no doubt you’ll have it ship shape in no time. I’m always impressed at how well you care for everything on your farm.❤️🤗🐝
Great stuff. Looking forward to seeing the transformation over the coming months. 👌🏻
What a lucky digger! That old digger will look awesome when you are done with it! Hopefully it will work for you for years more to come!
Drove one of these as a kid, moving it around a field picking stones, great machine and memories. Looking forward to seeing you working on and in the 50B :)
You have a never ending knowledge of machinery and how things work. Great interesting video
Great machine. My mother bought one for her smallholding about 6 months ago. It starts on the button every time, all weathers. Fantastic value for money compared with the costs of hiring a digger
Adrian, looks like a great buy! No doubt your magical hands will do some job on your new 50B! Looking forward to that video. Well done!
Lovely machine Adrian obviously there is work to be done on her but what I like about it is it’s all there and original as could be and it’s definitely in the right place for getting the vip treatment 😄👌🏻👍🏼
Best of luck with the new purchase for the farm 👍👍👍
I put up silage with a 50b in the late 80’s / early 90’s …. Great machines!
Looks like a great rebuild project for you. Looking forward to seeing it. I am sure it will get plenty of use 😊👍👍
Seeing that machine move made my day! :D Beautiful!! :D Thanks lots.
Adrian best of luck with it, mighty job for leveling clay or gravel with the front bucket or redding sheughs and digging drains once the rear carriage is sorted.Thats a very honest review and i've no doubt the the 50B that we see in the work horse clothes will soon be a a very credible show pony!.
This will be a real challenge. Wish you the best of luck with the rebuild. Thank you for sharing.🐄
Good luck with her Adrian she's came to a good home
Ideal machine for you Adrian, it’ll do a heap of work for you from digging holes, lifting Fert and all the jobs in between. You’ll also have another “project” for you to tidy and work on as the months go on. (Like you’ve nothing else to do with your time). Congratulations and happy howking 😎😎😎😎
Nice addition.. i can honestly say it will be a handy second loader to have as well.. we have a 50B mk2 with 2 stick digger control, ( posh 😂) the torque converter and floor pedals shuttles which when you press them both down together you get revs with no movement. It came home when i worked at a local dealers FarmServices when i was 17ish and its still with us... now im 44 ish 😅 .. and to be fair we haven't spent a lot on her but she is always ready to go and work when asked.. steering drop shaft was replaced though that made a huge difference. Stay safe 🏴
New toy, new project! Adrian’s a happy man as Christmas arrives early. Looking forward to the renovation and how you put the 50B to work 🚜
I remember my grandad had one on his farm when I was growing up. But it was a non backhoe model with a concrete counterweight in the back. Unfortunately it was the manual gearbox model. Absolutely savage loader tractor all the same. Actually he had two the other had a backhoe. It lived in the headge for spares
Brilliant video Adrian, very entertaining video and very well presented and edited, you're class act, good luck on your restoration
Adrian, well done on the Massey digger. Great backup for the silage pit, but fabulous for drain work and shoughts on the farm.........Spend a bit , keep out of the weather and it should be a permanent tool on the farm.
Great video I am sure it will be a great job and working 100% can't wait to see the work been done on it
Looking forward to this journey, 👍
Brilliant stuff Adrian... looking forward to seeing this ..
Some years back I put a divert valve on bucket pipes ( in cab ) as a third service and ran the pipes out to service a shear grab . Worked perfectly and was a very cheap solution at the time .
Hi Adrian,
Great video and what an exciting project to be looking forward to tearing into.
Best of luck with the new purchase we have a 50B here on the farm since 88 feedin cattle with a 5ft shear grab very reliable machine .the shaft ya found in the tool box is from the original hyd pump in behind the front grill .ya might look into gettin a second hand back actor slide unit .a lot of welding on different components on yours
Had an MF211on the Farm I worked on when I left school. Very handy. Used it to load silage out of the clamp and in the summer took off the backacter and used to stack big round bales. There was a User Manual in the shed for it. Among other "How to" sections it even had full instructions of how to use the machine to dig graves
Can’t wait to see you working on it. Please film it so that we can see it. Thank you.
Adrian, you have some great attitude about your new purchase. A BIG project! Good thing you have “8” days in a week!
You might find a date stamped into the wheels which will be fairly close to year of manufacture of the digger.
What a man you are, not many people would take on a project like that, I wish you the best of luck with it. I know you will get it up and running and in fairley decent condition.
great new project for you, im sure you`ll get it in tip top working order and thinking it will be useful on the little house projects. thank you
Thanks for the show Adrian, watch out for the telephone cables and water lines
Absolute perfect project to sort out this winter, keep you away from sofa🤪 sure you will enjoy playing and fixing 50b, hopefully you’re dad will be out with you as well, noticed Bailey looking at the ditching bucket thinking it’s the feed bowl ! 😂 anyway Adrian have a good and safe week 🍻
This will be a great winter evenings project for you
For a good DIY guy like you it’s just tool needed.👍
Good luck with the digger you'll find plenty of work for it I had a jcb and got head stock for quicke loader fitted to it and was able to use all the bucket s forks on it used a digger once had 3rd service plumed to one of the jack
Your developing a fondness for vintage machinery. A load of work there for you but enjoyable.
50D. I have been wanting to buy a 50E for years and I think you have just pushed me a little bit closer 😂😂
Congratulations on your purchase of a fine vintage machine that hopefully will pay for itself in content for your Channel that we ❤️ love.
Hopefully it will clean a shuck or two for you too.😊
Looking forward to see what you do with it Adrian
You will have it shining!
The shaft in the toolbox is for the steering if i remember correctly. There should be a hand throttle i think its on the floor under the chair. If it is pulling on the back wheels get the half axels checked i had a nightmare with one in the past it ceased itself solid on a busy road. I had to nurse it all the way home with the assistance of the back actor
Im shocked by the speed of the front loader, a seriously useful tool once you tidy it up.
Great video Adrian keep them coming really enjoying them best of luck with it lad
Morning Adrian hope your keeping well
Tidy brining back my child hood we had a few on the farm I was brought up on one was torque like your one cab taken off for low buildings it got a roasting because it was torque so we got an upgrade and clutch one cab not off just shortened 😀 and half backactor teen off, wouldn’t start so always left on a brae and bumpt started 😀 the slider control was for the heater and our seat didn’t spin it tipped over so you was sittin on the backrest of it when facin the back handles. Keep up the good work lookin forward to you fixing her up 👍🏽
Cant wait for updates on this I hope ya put a few extra lights on her and eventually paint and stickers use it for factor runs as I would say majority of them have been deven into the ground worked hard and are left in a bush only to be used ocaisonally be nice tidied up and retro fitted out
Nice one Adrian better than a hand shovel for sure 👍
Looking forward to seeing the repairs on the 50 only ever used a case or jcb great video well explained
The linkage at the front was for a throttle cable from memory, damm good old digger, the steering can be fun on the road when they are worn, but good simple old yokes
Love the videos you put on, keep them coming.
Lovely purchase well wear
Great video Adrian. Really looking forward to seeing you getting stuck in that old girl & bringing her back to her former glory. Be great to see your dad behind the controls 👍
hi adrian the hand throttle should be under the seat on the right hand sided also if you press both foot peddles together that will rev rev the engine best machine ever made
I love to see you fix up old stuff to make it good again!! Wish I could help with sanding rust and spray painting yellow, but I'm old and in the US so you'll have to do the best you can on your own. 🤣😂🤣😂 Look forward to the rehab beginning!!! I'll bet you are glad you got your workshop all ready to use.
Best of luck with the 50B, as I was once told anyone can drive a good machine but it takes a good man to drive any machine, you wont believe how handy it will become, I have a 86 Hitachi uho25 I wud be lost without it never let's me down. Best of luck and health to enjoy.
Who ever told you about about the driving must have a long nose
Great video Adrian best of luck with the new project 💪👌
Good video a nice project for you Adrian to work on 👍👍👍
The little leaver on the dash is for the fan/cab heater
Cannot wait to see this being restored 👍🏻👍🏻
Good luck with your purchase ,as said in comments hand throttle under seat at 17.21 minutes ,little rod use only for digging engine should be at idle when pressing forward or reverse to prevent a shock to the driveline ,two pedals together for rpm to give power for lifting foot off to change gear .Are the breaks sticking on one side causing drag or issue with planetary hub inside the wheel .Looking forward to the repair videos
Adrain we've a 50b there's a hand throttle at the left hand side of the seat you push it down to use the back loader when digging etc
Can never have to many machines that can load stuff on a dairy farm the loader on that 50b will be more handy than you think! Got 2 loadalls and a tractor loader and still sometimes need another machine to move stuff about!
Good luck with classic Massey 50B digger👍
Very good Adrian's, all the best with her ,we have a older masses fergurson 50 digger she's a good machine ,a working project
Best of luck with your new purchase.
Nice Massey. You will soon have 91k subscribers!
Nice little dumper to go with it would be handy. You know the ones you start with a handle.
Always wanted one but no need for it🤗
Nice wee project Adrian will be a nice digger when you’ve worked your magic on it! 💪🏻💪🏻👍
I can not wait, to see that thing in the correct fire red, bigger tires, a chrome exhaust, LED lights and with a nice job of Mr. Sticker! (beside the technical issues)
Father Phil the man for all the info on that wagon Adrian
A nice project it will take time handy machine to have around
Hi another great video looking forward to see doing it up as I’ve been bought up on one, the hand throttle is under the seat on door side 👍
Handy machine. Buy a small sprit level. It's handy when using the back actor keeps the machine level
Joe Nolan in Wexford is the go to for second hand parts, good service and advice
Well a Welsh farmer favourite from the seventies and eighties. Mighty loader and a handy backacter. Sold a few as well in my time.
We’ve had a few Massey diggers, a 1967 Massey 50 first of all with no cab, what a beast, then a 50b like yours with a similar quick hitch, excellent for loading in the clamp especially in winter when the main loader tractor was busy, then a 50D…. 50D was let down by too many electrics and complicated brakes, that went to Rodney Neil over in Ireland…
I’ve got a JCB 804 as my digger just now but I’d still buy an early Massey 50 if I came across a half decent one!
Great video,Adrian your a fountain of information😊
That'll B a handy thing about the place. There was also a 50D, 50H & 50Hx. Probably a couple of others as well, im not too sure.
