Brakes running in oil. Found bad seal on the cover plate. ? Is what fluid to refill with. I know the original manuals calls for 80-90 pure mineral oil. That was 50 years ago. I run UTF in all my other tractors. What do the experts out there suggest ?? [Reply]   [No Email]

Our Massey dealer just sells us jugs of UTF for our Massey's now, instead of the Perma-Tran 821XL. Haven't noticed any difference yet. Donovan from Wisconsin [Reply]  [No Email]

If it is recommended by Massey for our tractors it sure as anything will suit yours! Sam [Reply]  [No Email]

That said as long as the UTF meets the MF spec I would use that if not then I would find a fluid that meets that MF spec [Reply]  [No Email]
