Hello everyone. I'm new on here and I own a 1959 Fordson Power Major. I look forward to learning more about my tractor and sharing info with others.
Thanks
Gerald

Hi gman. I'm fairly new here myself but I want to tell you that you won't find better information or better members sharing that information anywhere. This forum is just plain GREAT! Welcome!

Hey Kim, thanks for the welcome. I'm will be asking some questions when I have time to spend in here. I just pulled my ole blue out of the shed a few weeks back, I have gotten it running, next is changing trans. and rear end fluids but wanting to learn more before I start. I know pto leaks some and want to find out if this is a hard repair before draining. Also trying to find gasket to drain and clean hydraulic screen. At this time hydraulics' handles seem to be frozen so hoping cleaning will help. I understand there are repair manuals on here so next is to see if I can find them. Anyway thanks again for the wecome

Hello Gman, Welcome aboard. I have a 1960 Power Major but have not had the hydraulic problems you have mentioned. Lots of good info and good folk here. Stay tuned. :wink:

Gman, if you go to "The Fordson Tractor Pages"(not Forum), at the bottom of the page to the right of the picture you will see a listing in the center for manuals available on line. Good luck.
