Mf 65 questions

[mrlexmark]

Just purchased a 1959 massey Ferguson 65. Trying to find some information out like what type of oil it takes, which filter and what hydraulic fluid it takes. First time owning a tractor any help is greatly appreciated

mrlemark, I can't answer any of your questions but wanted to welcome to the forum. Hopefully someone will come along soon that knows what you're looking for.

For tranny use GL1 90 mineral oil, that is what it was designed to use,
you can get it from NAPA in 5 and 1 gal containers

Your NAPA dealer might be able to help on other oils also.

I have the mf-201 it manual. Just not seeing what type of fluids it takes. I believe the oil filter is ABC521.

What brand and weight oil should i use

I see it says transmission fluid type a for powersteering fluid. Which dex6 would be the equivalent.

How do you check the transmission fluid? I see on the back right there is a dipstick for the hydraulic fluid. Is that for the hydraulics and the transmission? If so where is the drain and fill.

Thanks
