Morning LOU, I have a MF 2200 hoe myself, its a very usefull and strong little tractor, I'm not sure if it was available but mine does not have shuttle shift F-R therefore the tractor itself is simple and tough, with that said it IS somewhat pricey to repair although I haven't run into anything I couldn't get. It does have the drum type swing apparatus that others have mentioned and yes they are not trouble free. I bought mine to do kind of the same thing you are for $700 or $800 and ended up putting a couple thousand in it before I could use it reliably. But it has more than paid for itself as I've used and am still using it quite frequently. It has one of the most powerful hoes I've ever used for an old small tractor but I did replace the pump and pump drive prior to useing it. So I guess my answer is if the swing drum is not leaking (and if the bushings are worn it will be) and the hydraulics are in working order, the rest of the machine is just a common tractor so you can kind of base your decision on that.

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
