I’m a retired shop teacher /farm boy here in Cdn. I’m left speechless to see this girl nail down some serious knowledge!! From all the poor educational tutorials on you tube, this channel has given us hope that people can teach it right on line! Keep slamming those vids, wow!
Rachel you are evidence of hope for the future of our country. I have a MF 2135 With great hydraulics but I watched every minute of your video. Your video is perfectly edited with no drag time watching repetitive actions and your instruction is both correct and to the point. One of the best I've seen on UA-cam. It also doesn't hurt that you are easy on the eyes. Please accept the complement from a grandpa who admires your upbringing. I'm sure they are very proud.
Far out a young lady that knows alot of stuff. And a good amount more than most of us blokes. This is refreshing in this day and age. Well done to her and we'll done to her teacher. 👍🍻
Wow what a great video! It is so good to see a woman who is so comfortable and so knowledgeable about a rather complex piece of machinery. Rachel’s delivery style is so easy to follow. I am never going to be scared to repair my 35X hydraulic pump again. Rachel you are the best!!
Rachel does it Very Professionally,Thank You Rachel. I have a MF175,I have Aux. & PTO problems so how similar of testing & fixing is it with my MF175? Thank you,Rod Checkalski/checkalskirod12@gmail.com/7156424316/WI.
I have a Massey Ferguson 65 and wow that girl knows her stuff! Very impressive! She does a video so well that it could be an industry instructional video!
I can only repeat what others have said, Rachel has superb knowledge and puts it across in the way anyone can follow. If she doesn’t go on to teaching it would be a shame. She is excellent.
What a great video. I am a heavy equipment mechanic and have sat through lots of training videos. Yours by far are some of the best. I have a ‘40 something Massy 35 and I need to fix the hydraulics, was looking for some info and found your page. Thanks for some good tips.
Rachel, WOW! What a great mechanic you are! This is the best made tutorial I have seen in a very long time and I learned a lot from you that is nearly identical to my Massey 240. It needs a lot of hydraulic work and now I think I understand how it works. THANK YOU!!!
Bravo young lady. Great job, especially while explaining everything as you went. I wholeheartedly agree with Jim Wilson's comments below, you're certainly a credit to your generation.
If only all video's were as professionally produced, as clearly explained and as educational as this one is. Congratulations to the young lady who is as articulate as she is attractive and has the mechanical competence to go with it. She deserves to be successful in life.
Rachel, I congratulate you on a well organized and informative tutorial video on the rebuild of this hydraulic pump and control/actuator group. However, if you really want to take it to the next level, you need to literally "clean up your act". What I mean by this is that the assembly of any hydraulic system components must be done in a very clean environment with clean parts, clean tools and clean hands. This will take you to the level of a true professional in your trade and add another level of pride to your work. I am speaking from 40 plus years as a licensed Canadian HD mechanic 30 years of experience as a Caterpillar field service technician. Keep up the good work and keep improving. The world belongs to those who are not afraid to get their hands dirty.
As a hydraulics engineer I was thinking exactly the same thing as you. The lack of cleanliness on re-assembly was a bit cringeworthy, but otherwise a very professional and beautifully produced video and a credit to Rachel.
Rachel is incredible. Check out ALL her videos, not just mechanical. This amazing young woman is a CHRISTian. And you can tell. She wears her faith for all to see. That is why she has a glow to her and why there is a smile on her face even as she speaks. GOD bless you Rachel and your family as well!!
Your knowledge and mechanical ability is amazing. Watching you work seems to be so natural to you that I do not see how it could possibly be choreographed. Well done and I am a new fan.
very good video, this girl is straight to the point, clear spoken, no waffle, very hands on and easy on the eye so gets a top 10 from me. very well done.
Outstanding presentation, young lady! It’s good to see the pioneer spirit and Yankee ingenuity that made this country great, alive. Farmers and ranchers are the backbone of America. So many folks have no idea what it takes to make a farm or ranch operate. We’ve lost so many farmers and ranchers, it’s so sad. Kudos and thanks for a great instructional video, your parents must be so proud! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸💪🙌🙌🐽🐓🐄
This must come from an other planet... A cheerful young lady showing all these complicated things with the same self-evidence and enthousiasm as if it was, say, bakery.... Thank you very much, keep up the good work !
Good video. Very impressive young lady. My only issue with this is it appears you are reinstalling everything dry. Orings should always be installed with some kind of lubricant as well as all the pistons. Everything. It makes things easier to put together and helps keep down any damage from dry parts when there isnt any oil flowing yet on initial start up. Other than that great job. Great to see someone young with this much knowledge on farm equipment. New or old
WOW! I couldn't be more impressed with this young woman! Not only is she incredibly knowledgeable she is incredibly articulate. A not-too-common occurrence in my book. A+ young lady! Almost makes me want to buy a tractor just to have her show me how to fix it!
Young lady, I can believe what I am seeing while you are working on the tractors. I’ve been around tractors and farm machines while I was younger, but to watch you work on these tractors you are unbelievable .
Wow! Very impressed with this video. Fairly complicated repair. Throughly explained. Even detailed different options one might want to do. Excellent, excellent job! 👍
I own a MF35 1965 model. I have been driving it for 51 years. I never had any big issues with it. I use it mostly for snowcleaning and as a servicemaschine outside my home. This video is great, one of the best. Great skills you share. Maybe you make a video about overhauling the dieselpump? 🧐
totally awesome Rachel - I was quoted $2000 today for a guy to fix my hydraulics - I am sure now I can sort this myself - you are the best ! I am now a devoted subscribee !
Thank you for an excellent presentation. Most beneficial for any amateur taking on this operation. Did not realize how complex the pump was until I saw the video. Jim
Do you live on social media where older people just whine about young people? The only difference between now and years ago is there is social media to share the few examples and pretend it is everyone, where a bunch of older people pretend they are so much better than kids these days. BTW, I am 60 and I actually have a working memory.
@@1stwyldcdn nope, no social media of any kind, never even watched youtube that much until last two weeks. all ive done is observe and interact with young people alot ( im 52 )and most of them are so absorbed with their phones they are completely unaware of the world around them. imho
Rachel, you are very 'instructional' in front of camera, it is not an easy task to instruct and also carry out the work. Well done! I am working on a MF35x in Ireland at the moment so your video is very helpful - thank you.
Great video! This is the best instructional video on this subject hands down. I am looking forward to more Massey Ferguson content from you in the future. Keep up the stellar work!
This is very useful for all who are rebuilding an old MF. One thing I did note was you did not lube the rings before sliding into the cylinder! Always clean all parts with petrol/desal, dry them and oil them as you refit the parts. Farm oil is thick and heavy, can take some time to reach everything. People think that because tractor parts are quit big, that you can be rough with them? But as you said, you don't want to do it again. Thank you for your demo.
Bravo! Cold Michigan winters indeed. You know, ya put some of these “pro” weather girls/news casters to shame! You seem so very comfortable, like you’ve done a million of these overhauls. And great job by the production and editing dept, y’all make some solid videos! Great team you have there. We visited Stieners for the first time last weekend, great place, enjoyed it, highly recommended! From Ol’ Soggy Bottom, parts unknown.
Man this chick is good and knows her stuff! I'm definitely a subscriber now! :-) she has no fluffer wasted time that goes right to the point! Thank you so much as this will help much!
MF 35s & 28s were very common in New Zealand farms. They were so reliable just about every NZ farmer either had a 165, 135, 35 or Ferg 28 at some stage. In the late 1970s I would drive dads 35 petrol to cut, tedder and bale 80 acres each year driving a pto driven 280 New Holland baler.
Wow, I have never met a woman that is perfect before. what a breath of fresh air, love this concept I wish I had the knowledge to create a video like this.
I'm glad to see others who are trying to keep the older tractors going. It helps to keep the prices down, and the EPA out of farming. I own and use several older tractors myself. We regularly rebuild tractor parts in our machine shop. Here is some helpful resources, for those doing tractor repairs. Case, John Deere, and Agcoparts books, as well as Heavenlymachining. Subscibing to you.
i have been wrenching on cars and logging equipment for 40 years and had the pleasure to teach a young woman how to work on equipment as well as the boys even smoke them like you good going and god bless.
Totally impressed, Rachel - you're such a talent, the way you work and handle the parts and your tools - never thought I'd live to see such a mechanic! Greetings from Norway! :D :D
Very clear instructions and video. I have watched a lot of how to videos with people bumbling and messing about but this is very easy to follow. My pump makes a clattering noise when under load so I guess its going to need attention soon. Awesome video
Was curious - since most people don’t have access to the special tools that were used to adjust the linkage on these tractors (as well as set the nut on the draft spring.) How did you make the adjustment without the special spanner wrench (if at all?) Keep it up! I’d love to see more Massey videos.
Excellent video with a talented presenter. I have a 56' Ferguson 40 with a Helm snowblower and this makes me feel better about working on the hydraulic unit. As a technical video producer I give you 4 stars Rachel and your parents! Now for my clutch...
I’m very impressed! It’s a huge deal you are as smart as you are, young, and can do this work better than any Pro I have ever seen! Beautiful young, extremely smart you are everything your generation is NOT , How did you escape the fate of being like the rest? I love watching your videos, I don’t and probably won’t ever own a tractor but I feel like I’m getting an education in a lost art! You are amazing!
Seth Lavinder you're casting a wide blanket over an entire generation, IMO you need to get out and meet more of them or widen your circle. There are plenty of great kids that age. I volunteer at the Wounded Warrior center here in my town and the military if full of kids her age that are just as smart, interested, and caring. I also volunteer at the local Guide Dogs Training facility and am constantly amazed by the sheer number of young kids her age that also come out volunteer and work hard. Good people are out there everywhere.

Great video. Wish something like this had been around 20 years ago when I did my first hydraulic rebuild in my 35x, but I got there and it’s still going, but I made a few mistakes along the way that this would have helped me avoid. 👍
i am a retired mechanic . and you are good. i wish we had people like you on my team. women often avoid this work because of the dirtiness of it. this job take discipline and attention to details, witch women excel at.
Madam, I am from India, I have seen your videos they are very informative, I own a Massey Ferguson tractor 1035 which is 37 years old, I have stripped my tractor since the Friction Disc was blown out, i am giving it a major overhaul, so most of your videos are a guide to the bigners with regards Ravi
i I've done that so many times I must say its nice to be reminded. spot on Les England show us one with the T20, if you can for the benefit of the viewers,
This video is a Godsend young lady. I had no idea what I was getting into replacing the pump on my MF 240 but your directions are simple and well done. I'll be ordering my new pump assembly this week from your website as a thank you. 😊
A lot is said about Rachel’s skills in tractor repair, but she’s a crackerjack presenter and educator as well. Well spoken and methodical... a true genius.
Congratulations! First of your videos to reach 1 million. Massey Ferguson tractors of this size are very common in the Middle East, India and Pakistan.
Great video Rachel!! Just for curiosity why did you choose 90W oil? I know in my Ford N series tractors the 90W is great in summer but even around 50 degrees becomes slow because it's too thick. Is this Masseys hydraulic system not affected by the temperature?
Rachel, you are so beautiful and knowledgeable. You are some young mechanics dream partner. Your teaching style is perfect, well done. ( You can tell that I am a real fan.)
My wife is also a very competent mechanic. I find this young lady very intriguing. She obviously knows her shit...and is very well spoken not to mention attractive. Just brought home my second MF 65 diesel this month...neither are runners, yet. Within the first 3 minutes of Rachel's video I learned more than I have the last three hours scouring forums. Top shelf video...well done. I'm a fan, and subscriber. Thank you!
i was figuring that it was a Minnesota accent, but Michigan was close enough , from your neighbours in the north, great job, i am looking at a tractor and its great to know that your tutorials are very well explained , and i especially like the parts where you say, just keep trying
Daniel Massey had ability to solve problems. He recognized the value of dependable labour saving farming equipment being accessible to the average farmer. Before the age of planned obsolescence and global economy. Tractors freed up teams of horses and eliminated need for slave labour. As any good mechanic knows diagnosing problems is sometimes more difficult than fixing once it is isolated if you have the skills. Solid presentation ,thank you.
Question on washing the internals to get down to a clean start. I use Naptha to get everything clean, then I rinse and dry with 91% isopropyl alcohol from the drug store. Then I reassemble, but several people have told me I shouldn't use Naptha. What do you use to get internals nice and clean?
You shouldn't use Naptha ( naphtha ) for cleaning mechanical parts with sensitive surfaces "such as any type of cylinders, pistons, gears, contact ends of drive shafts, and especially bearings with all sizes" . You may use Diesel instead !
Very well presented and ironically this is what I needed years ago doing my HYD pump and cleaning debris out. Thank you for wearing work clothes and not a ridiculous bikini. Cheers from Australia
Never realised how complicated the inside of an old Massey could be. Hats off to the genius engineers who designed them and the genius mechanics, such as Rachel, who can take it all apart and reassemble it. I would love to restore a tractor such as this but would be left with spare bits at the end! But why does the hydraulic pump need to be so complicated? Could it not just be one valve in and one valve out?
Take Note Guy’s on how to make a video, no music, no swearing, TO THE POINT. Great Video Grl😊
Love the no swearing, no foolishness
My wife reads novels on the couch. Rachel fixes tractors.
Thanks for being you Rachel.

Madam, I am from India, I have seen your videos they are very informative, I own a Massey Ferguson tractor 1035 which is 37 years old, I have stripped my tractor since the Friction Disc was blown out, i am giving it a major overhaul, so most of your videos are a guide to the bigners with regards Ravi

I've done that so many times I must say its nice to be reminded. spot on Les England show us one with the T20, if you can for the benefit of the viewers,
This video is a Godsend young lady. I had no idea what I was getting into replacing the pump on my MF 240 but your directions are simple and well done. I'll be ordering my new pump assembly this week from your website as a thank you. 😊
A lot is said about Rachel’s skills in tractor repair, but she’s a crackerjack presenter and educator as well. Well spoken and methodical... a true genius.
This girl is a great teacher and you can tell she knows what she's doing
Outstanding , Your Dad must be really proud
This Gal is really a good teacher . . These Videos Are Excellent !
Solid video. Well done!
Congratulations! First of your videos to reach 1 million. Massey Ferguson tractors of this size are very common in the Middle East, India and Pakistan.
Great video Rachel!! Just for curiosity why did you choose 90W oil? I know in my Ford N series tractors the 90W is great in summer but even around 50 degrees becomes slow because it's too thick. Is this Masseys hydraulic system not affected by the temperature?
Just wanted to say thank you for all your videos. Appreciate all the time you spend on them.
great job, however,......you need to be using oil on every install of every piece and seals for sure. Especially the rear PTO cover.
what a fantastic tutorial Rachel,you know your stuff
What an amazing presentation, well done 100%
Just bought me a Massey Ferguson tractor and that's how I found your video. Very well explained.
this woman is one to be around when the zombie apocalypse happens.
It is truly great that some very helpful people put out videos like this.
Rachel, you are so beautiful and knowledgeable. You are some young mechanics dream partner. Your teaching style is perfect, well done. ( You can tell that I am a real fan.)
My wife is also a very competent mechanic. I find this young lady very intriguing. She obviously knows her shit...and is very well spoken not to mention attractive. Just brought home my second MF 65 diesel this month...neither are runners, yet. Within the first 3 minutes of Rachel's video I learned more than I have the last three hours scouring forums. Top shelf video...well done. I'm a fan, and subscriber. Thank you!
Oh, and that smile.
Great video! I woild love to see a blooper reel from all these videos that y'all have made. I'll bet that would be hilarious! Thank you for sharing!
Well at least someone knows their stuff keep up the good work
You know what your taking about.somthing you don’t find today beautiful bonus to any shop.can’t stop watching you channel
Well described.
That is not the easiest of jobs.
i was figuring that it was a Minnesota accent, but Michigan was close enough , from your neighbours in the north, great job, i am looking at a tractor and its great to know that your tutorials are very well explained , and i especially like the parts where you say, just keep trying
Great video, not because your female, but because its a really informative video, great lighting and sound too
Daniel Massey had ability to solve problems. He recognized the value of dependable labour saving farming equipment being accessible to the average farmer. Before the age of planned obsolescence and global economy. Tractors freed up teams of horses and eliminated need for slave labour. As any good mechanic knows diagnosing problems is sometimes more difficult than fixing once it is isolated if you have the skills. Solid presentation ,thank you.
Michigan farm girls......... Worth their weight in diamonds!
What an awesome young lady, and beautiful too.
Great job prety girl
Hello my love verk
That was awesome! Great explanation and visuals. It does not seem so daunting now for a three point hitch hydraulic repair. Great job.
Great video! Articulate, smart young lady!👍
I have the same tractor, I really enjoyed the video, your presentation style is excellent. Thank you.
Question on washing the internals to get down to a clean start. I use Naptha to get everything clean, then I rinse and dry with 91% isopropyl alcohol from the drug store. Then I reassemble, but several people have told me I shouldn't use Naptha. What do you use to get internals nice and clean?
Brake cleaner👍🏼
You shouldn't use Naptha ( naphtha ) for cleaning mechanical parts with sensitive surfaces "such as any type of cylinders, pistons, gears, contact ends of drive shafts, and especially bearings with all sizes" . You may use Diesel instead !
Awesome tutorial, i just bought (Literally today) a 1978 MF30 Industrial tractor. I am probably gonna learn a lot from you. Keep up the good work!
Very well presented and ironically this is what I needed years ago doing my HYD pump and cleaning debris out. Thank you for wearing work clothes and not a ridiculous bikini. Cheers from Australia
Never realised how complicated the inside of an old Massey could be. Hats off to the genius engineers who designed them and the genius mechanics, such as Rachel, who can take it all apart and reassemble it. I would love to restore a tractor such as this but would be left with spare bits at the end!
But why does the hydraulic pump need to be so complicated? Could it not just be one valve in and one valve out?
Not sure why you don't have more subscribers.....great quality video...if you every need anything drop me an email.
Josh
A bit of a niche market, old tractor repair videos, but I agree!
Why would she drop you an email mate? I'm sure if she needs help she won't need to ask a stranger on UA-cam.
@@BlueZirnitra because it's a pathetic, pointless, desperate pass at her
@@thedude427 its not a pass at her . josh has a very successful you tube channel and a wife .
Maybe because its only useful if you have tractors more than 50 years old?
I'm not afraid of buying an older tractor after seeing this. Great presentation.
