You add the dydraulic fluid near the loader control levers, their should be a breather cover there, the one we have has two different sized "nuts" that need to be removed, the lower nut has a dipstick attached. After you take both pieces off you pour the fluid in there. Hope this helps. I am looking for an exhaust pipe that bolts to the manifold and goes vertical from there. It is for the gas model with loader, if you know anyone that has one.

1.) Buy yourself an MF 50 tractor Owner's Manual. Try your local Massey Ferguson dealer or search online. Places like eBay and such are good places to try for used manuals. 2.) Go to Tractor Supply Co. and buy yourself an I&T Service Manual. (They are cheaper than the OEM MF manuals, but are not as comprehensive, and are more geared towards mechanics.) Also, it depends on what you are talking about. - The Hydraulic System? - The Engine? (...and is it a gas or diesel)? - What climate do you run the tractor in? Cold? Temperate? Hot? Generically speaking: - Engine - Regardless of temp, for most climates, you can run 10W-30 in the engine safely, no matter what. Cold? (0-60 degrees F) 5w-30 or 10w-30 or SAE 10 Temperate? (30-90 deg F) 10w-30 or 10w40 (or 15w-40 if diesel) Hot? (60-120 deg F) 10w-30 or 15w-40 or SAE 30 - Trans & Hyd - I believe the MF 50 uses a "common-sump" transmission/hydraulic system. Therefore, any good quality modern Transmission AND Hydraulic Fluid can be used. Honestly, even if they were separate sumps, you still could use the same fluid in this case. Fluids commonly known as: - TH fluid - Universal Tractor Hydraulic AND Transmission Fluid - John Deere's: HY-Gard J20C - Case IH's: HY-Tran - Massey Ferguson's PermaTran III (may be a higher roman numeral these days, as I haven't bought "MF brand" oil in a long time) - and Various other names that most Universal Tractor Transmission & Hydraulic fluids go by. DO NOT use straight hydraulic fluid or straight transmission fluids. You will not get as good of performance, and you will not have the right additives in your oil for the application. Your rear axle final drives may be separate from your transmission. I believe they are. For them, a good 80W-90 or SAE 90W oil would suffice. Kudos! ~AJ
