no haveing a lot of fun on facebook so i'm going to ask on here, can anyone show me a diagram of how to connecy the cable to the stop lever?
, i've done 30 plus of these and never had any trouble till now!
i cant find any thing in any of my manuels.
regards
joe

i am trying to get in touch with bernard bell of possibly boston,lincs can any one help me out?

i made some of these to suit the cropmasters, but there was very little interest ,

i use an old paint brush handle for this job,if the plug and screw can hold gates on then the chances of splitting the valve is high!

are you any further on ,show us the final pictures

those ferguson lights do not need an earth as they are for a single filament bulb with two connections!

try massey ferguson super red,or ford rosso red these are close!

there is a circlip on the brake pedal side,brake pedal nearest to the gearbox has a bolt through it or cellock pin but every thing will be seized and will need heat, have fun!

i have just done mine on an 880, sadly there is no corners to cut, soak in diesel, or mollass, use heat and tap whilst warm to ease pedals clean up with sander and emery cloth and refit!

does your 885 have flat top mudguards?if yes then why not opt for the db roll bar/cab frame.,
i'm not certain but the flat top mudguards will not allow the scirroco type roll bar to fit withou seeing some pictures of roll bar and tractor

the two tubes bolt on the top of the rear axle to each mudguard, the joint for the cables is under the seat or a modern termination would be a 7 pin socket rather than the two pin rubber socket.


put some pictures up of the restored item

the fact that you run on the short setting would mean less springy and more ridgid plus the fact it had been welded!

i have just purchased a 1690t and the draw bar was snapped off, not been welded but i would guess it may have been abused!

there is a spurious ram that can be adapted to fit though!

many thanks young man!
