Tractor Repairs and Reviews
I want to show people (like myself) that it is possible to conduct simple maintenance on these machines and even EASIER to record a video to share with the world, and hopefully pass on some knowledge to others.

Very informative and well explained, Good job mate!
Thank you. Glad the video was of use to you.👍👍
Hi John, many thanks for the video! I have just done my DF354 easily due to your posted information. A bugger of a job but I would have been lost without the video! Cheers
Thanks Darryl, glad the video was of help to you.
They busted not there anymore stuck with one no parts anymore
2 legends 😊 loved the video cheers for the information looking at getting one soon 🤟

We bought our 35x in 2000 and paid £1500 for it. At the time the local farmers said I had been ripped off but I wish I had bought several more back then. It has given great service and is still very original (lots of "Made in England" bits including the starter, dynamo reg. box, lift pump CAV pump etc.)
Yes mate, good tractors indeed 👍👍
lol. Seeing people try to use wrenches to take it out make me try that for half an hour. Completely useless. I just put a piece of wire through the hole at the end of the PTO shaft and gave it a yank and it was out in seconds. You can put a screwdriver through the hole to use to pull. A slide hammer would work fine. The pto shaft can be on it and used to lever it out too.
Hi John, don't suppose you have replaced the rear axle seals on your Dong Feng have you?
Hello. No I haven't. Only repairs / servicing you see on channel, is what has happened.
Do you have a Dongfeng too Lola?
Can you do anything about the dogs barking
Thank you for the step buy step explanation, very helpful! Would be helpful if I get the Massy Ferguson 35 Manual by Chris Jaworski, I have a MF 135 do
Como se hace pars medir el nivel del aceite hidraulico de este modelo 254 gracias saludos desde Uruguay

Sou aqui Do Brasil te assitindo. Tenho um trator igual ao seu 😅
Hello there in Brazil. Hope the video was of help to you <Espero que o vídeo tenha sido útil para você>
Great Video, Thank you, John.
did those tools come with it ,and is there a toolbox on the tractor?
Hi mate, hows this tractor holding on , been a long time you say nothing about it my friend , was wondering if everything was hope with it
Hello, thanks for your message. The tractor is doing fine. I only do videos when something out of the ordinary happens. So - "No News is Good News".
@johnp1388 that's great , I've found recently, I like your videos keep doing them my friend
Im quite surprised never heard about this oil in fuel pump before 😂
Yes, I was too!
@johnp1388 wanted to ask after u did this the smoke completely stopped was it, that part i could not really understand it
I can never understand why they persist in fitting skinny front tyres/wheels on machines with front loaders. First bit of soft ground you try to take a bucket full across, the wheels just sink. Not enough surface area for loader work.
I'm doing my 1959 M-F 50 gasser the same way; It's a working tractor, & will always be a working tractor. I'll be using rattle cans on mine, & putting on decals also. I've had Stella going on 27 years now; & she deserves a respray for being my 1st tractor, & a damn good reliable one at that 💪💪💪. I like everything your doing to your M-F 35; She's looking graceful still. Thank You for the video, & I like your way of thinking🚜🚜🚜🚜🚜🤔.
Thanks for your comment. Yes, the Fergies are just old school, built to last machinery. I'm still poking along with the engine tear down, it will all be uploaded to the channel once complete. Thanks again 👍👍
Can you at least use the tools the correct way please Sir. You had the wrench and the adjustable wrench on the bolt head backwards. Not good for teaching purposes😊😊
Thanks for sharing that knowledge John, I just acquired a similar machine as part of a property purchase nth of Gympie. It uses a red nob to engage the cutter rather than that more robust looking lever yours has and the engine is only 17.5 hp. I guess they have evolved and tweaked the design a bit over the years. We also got a 2007 Dongfeng df354 which I think is the older and bigger brother to the one you have? I'm not a country person so I have a bit of a learning curve ahead of me. 😁
Thanks Daniel. Glad the video was of use to you. If you keep the Greenfield regularly serviced, it should last a long time. Same goes for the Dongfeng. BRISMAC I recommend to you, should you need parts, advice ( located in Brisbane ).
BRISMAC for the Dongfeng
John P mine has 620 hours going strong 17*5 Briggs cheers Mick.
Thanks Mick, they'll last a long time if you look after them. 620 is bloody good mate.
John I have a 2007 Lenar LE304 I bought from my dad, 3 cylinder diesel with only 40 hours. It appears to be almost the same tractor (made by dongfeng) and I have no manual on this tractor. Being that yours appears to be the same from what I can see is there anyway I could get a copy of your manual? Or if you have a service center you go through for support or for parts I could contact? I cannot find much of any information on the my tractor, your videos have been a lot of help I’m about to do the hydraulic oil change/filter cleaning. I’d like to know at what Intervals to change oil etc. Any info or help you could pass my way would be awesome! Keep the videos coming!
Hello Brian, thanks for your message. Where are you located? Australia? Overseas?

@@brianscott5641 ok Brian, if you expand the Desciption box at the bottom of my email, you will see 'About'. Click on that and you will find my email address. Message me there please.
description box at the bottom of my VIDEO, I meant
Thank you very much, I am not seeing an email address just a TH-cam link?
Thank you, John. I really appreciate your informative videos and your good old-fashioned straight forward Aussie way
Good to see you Merry C Christmas don't get washed away.
Merry Christmas I hope it was for you too. The worst of the terrible wet was North of us (Cyclone and its aftermath) however, the regular rain has started here now.
Mower maintenance, 101. Ready for the wet season!
The Wet Season struck Big Time, last night, lol
Hello John. I saw your answer to my question about the grease nipples. Thank you for your reply. I did end up finding them in the end. For some reason I am not able to find your comment again, so I am saying thank you in a new comment section. Your videos are so helpful 🙂
No probs
Thank you John. I have the exact model you have and have decided to service it myself as well. Your videos have been so helpful. Unfortunately I didn't get the manual with it as it's second hand. I have bought myself a greese gun and have found 1 grease nipple between the 2 front tyres. Are there any others?
Hello and thank you. According to the Manual, there are THREE grease nipples. One near each wheel (kingpin housing in the front axle beam) and the other fitted to the steering idler which is located in the centre of the machine close behind the front axle beam and accessible from under the chassis (is this the one you are referring to?). Anyway, I'm glad you reminded me about this! I did do up a short video on Greasing and Lubrication but haven't got around to uploading it. Will see what I can do. Regarding a Manual, last time I looked, you could download it from the Greenfield website (they have a big back catalogue of them, spanning many years of models). Good luck and glad the videos are of help to you.
Did you have an inner "cup" with some holes on the bottom housing? Are you supposed to fill that inner part with oil too?
Hello, yes my tractor has an inner cup, sometimes referred to as a centre ring, alongside the outer ring. Here's something I have copied for you from a Forum, which explains it well - the easiest way to avoid any confusion is to fill the centre ring as you describe it up to the holes…..the oil then will run out of the holes and start to fill up the outer ring. When the outer ring and inner ring are both at the same level you have cracked it….if there isn#t any visible level mark inside your air filter bowl you can then make your own mark where the oil level settles
Great video mate, I agree they are a very well designed tough ride on. Greenfield in my opinion is number one when it comes to what they make and it’s durability.
Thanks mate. I agree, that's why I have one, it is robust.
Great video John - it's nice to see people using TH-cam as a resource (asking questions) rather than just "telling" people how to do stuff. I hope there are some people watching who can offer you some advice on this - is there a MF35 facebook group that might be able to help? just a thought - all the best from Wales - Jon
Thank you
What a great fair dinkum instructional video by an true blue Aussie, my wife and i loved it, so easy to understand.I was just given a Greenfield Mini Mower looks about 10 years old with plenty of compression however have never owned a Ride on before so Johns video was just what i needed,Thanks Mate Bob B Ocean Shores NSW
Thank you Bob, I'm glad the video was of some help to you. Enjoy the " Mini Mow" 👍👍
Great idea to service your mower yourself. I wouldn't trust a dealer round here to do it - and this way you know its actually been done LOL
👍👍
Good to show the inside of this motor so we know what to expect when we start same job.
You will be a qualified diesel mechanic by the time this is over mate.
I'm going to ( have Already) learn a hell of a lot of stuff
and the term .............. Steep Learning Curve ...... comes to mind too
It looks like my shutoff can be removed for inspection with the tank still mounted (I hope so). That amount of stuff in the tank amazed me! And it still ran (Kind-of) anyway. Thank you.
Thanks 👍👍
I have the same tractor and watched all 4 episodes about fuel system. This process and an additive to make up for ULSD lack of lubrosity(sp?) will keep my old trusty running longer than me.
👍👍
It is not just me🤣 I am 76YO and sediment bowls have been the bane of my existence! They have leaked on lawn mowers, garden tractors, tractors, and more. You want to take them off and clean them out, but they always leak when you put them back. Patience is not my middle name. There must be a better way.
😂😂 I Hear You 👍👍
Very helpful. I will go back and watch the video where you changed the filters as well. Thank you.
Good stuff mate, although you’ve got too many work related toys! I don’t even own a mower. That said the only grass here is on the nature strip and I get the neighbour to mow it 😂
😂😂
Love it John
👍👍, Bloopers and Mr Buckaroonie references, et all 😂😂
Always nice to watch you working on your machines John
Thanks Jack. It looks rather Boring when I look at my own video but hopefully, it is of help to someone out there. No SNAKE CATCHING videos from me , lol
Well done Mick Junior!!!!!!! lol
"mungrel mungrel mungrel"
Good to see you John I saw your video on the tractor I am sure you will get it going that's a nice mower.
Thanks Danny 👍👍
I have had a very similar experience , my 1st Greenfield was second hand early model , it was an amazing mower , years later I purchased a new Greenfield fastcut 32 evolution with a Honda Motor . Absolutely brilliant mower still going strong ,over 15 years old. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend 100%
Thank you 👍
Good to see you still posting Papa 👍
Thanks Matty
Give it the old heave Ho!!!!!!!!
Yes, but GENTLY!
G'day Pap. Great to see that you put a new clip up mate
Hello Jack, thanks mate. As you can see, it's just a quick update. This particular job has taken a long time however, will eventually get there. Slow and Steady wins the race (I hope...)

Thanks, John, this is what youtube was made for! Love it.
