Overview

A front end loader is fitted with a general purpose bucket. The rear features a three-point linkage with lower arms, top link and stabiliser chains. Hydraulic lines run from the tractor to the loader cylinders. A key is present on a tag.
Condition
The bodywork shows widespread surface rust and paint flaking across the bonnet, mudguards, fuel tank area and instrument panel surround. The orange paint is faded and peeling in multiple areas, with bare metal exposed on the bonnet sides and mudguards. The loader frame and bucket show heavy surface rust throughout, with paint loss along the arms and cylinder mounts.
The rear tyres show heavily worn and flattened tread lugs with the tread pattern largely smoothed out. The front tyres show worn tread with the pattern still visible but shallow. The front wheel rims are painted red with surface rust and paint loss. The rear wheel rims are orange with corrosion around the edges. The engine bay is covered in accumulated dirt and grime. The three-point linkage arms and drawbar show surface corrosion. The seat shows wear and surface deterioration. The steering wheel centre cap displays the MF logo. The front grille shows the Massey Ferguson triple-triangle badge with rust staining on the mesh.
