This old backhoe popped up on the line for sale recently! They were asking $600, and immediately I told them... "I'LL TAKE IT!"
It's now time to go check it out and see what I bought!!
This old backhoe turned out to be a Mid to late 1980's Massey Ferguson 50HX Backhoe Loader with a 4 cylinder Perkins diesel engine. This thing is ROUGH! Let's see what we can do with it!
Do you think my gamble will pay off or did I buy a piece of junk that really SHOULD head off to the scrapyard?
Let's find out!
Please enjoy! I know I did!

I used to operate the largest rubber tire Massey Ferguson made I think it was a Massey 70 or something it's been quite a while now but I can tell you that thing never let me down and it would lift a ton of weight. We did lift stations in South Florida and I can remember pulling big huge concrete structures into their spot with that backhoe it actually did more than it was supposed to do but it did it good. I can say I never had any complaints with that the whole time I operated it for three and a half years good luck my friend.

Any time you replace a tube like you did, always release the air at least once to allow the tube to shift around and avoid any hidden wrinkles that may have occurred while stuffing the tube in. I also like to roll the tire on the ground to help the tube get properly seated.

Looks like a good deal, still parts out there and work-arounds for newer components. Get the service manual ordered for it for adjustments and wiring. Run some marvel mystery oil in it to clean things up. If any water in transmission or hydraulics add some industrial gallon size alcohol to adsorb the water and then drain out.

@MidasImperius 2 года назад

According to the machine's manual, which i found through a google search, there's supposed to be a hydraulic oil cooler in front of the radiator, where that hole is that you were wondering about.

@SalvageWorkshop 2 года назад

There is a hydraulic oil cooler in front of the radiator as well as an engine oil cooler... those do not use the hole i was wondering about... apparently that hole is for a power steering shaft that is needed for the 2wd models... it's not used on my machine since it's 4wd.

@martintech2012 2 года назад

Congrats on the machine, what a deal. Couple tips... that hand pumped fuel lift pump will only pump fuel TO the injection pump, not up to the injectors. Those old Perkins are notoriously difficult bleed air out of after they're run out of fuel. What you do is crack the injector line at a couple injectors, especially #1, and crank it over until the fuel spurting out doesn't have air bubbles in it anymore, then tighten them back up. Saves using starting fluid which is very hard on diesel engines. About the hydraulics, if you would have pulled the loader control into the raise position while jacking on the bucket it should have allowed the cylinders to extend, then put the control back into neutral to "lock" it up. MF Industrial eventually became Fermec, which was then sold to Terex. The legacy of that machine is the modern Terex TLB. On a side note, I think that backhoe would look sharp painted in the MF red and gray colors.....

@d4c24a 2 года назад

there are two small bleed screws on the pump itself , air those out , then crack a couple of injectors and spin it over

Love that big sky! I remember when young and having no farm experience I ran a diesel Kubota with no gauge dry. I got Diesel but it wouldn't start. Knew nothing of diesel, little of gas engines but looked at things and pondered every bit of it. The Lord was good to me that day, as all actually, but I figured out how to bleed the lines of air by cracking some nuts on lines leading to wherever and she fired up. My boss never found out, I was alone on this. Another time a piece of equipment wouldn't fire, nothing electrical keyed up... Alone again I pulled the switch mechanism unfolded some dog-ears and saw some springs and a couple of bb's loose in there. Figured it out and got it back up and running. As I watched you I felt like leaning in or simple handing you tools. I felt comfortable with the way you approached it all. My dad was a Lehigh University engineer who taught me nothing - long story but I'm glad to have found a natural knack for figuring stuff out somehow. Today I'm 64 do some consierge landscaping, I've always had a penchant for dirt but started forging a bit, making a few knives and alot if noise but also found I've a knack for clock repair. 'McGiyvering' will get things going when all else fails or is unavailable. Great videos!

@reesewilliamson3346 2 года назад

I have one of these machines... it took me 6 months to buy a transmission filter. Rebuild all the cylinders, replace every hose, line bore every pivot pin, make sure the front axle pin is tight (that's what was wrong with mine) and make sure the planetaries don't leak. It'll lift 6000lbs with absolute ease but it can't be used for towing in any way or you'll destroy the transmission. The 248 turbo Perkins is what makes this an HX, mine is an E (a 236 N/A) the loader oil reservoir is a cap on the door side of the loader frame.

@larrywalker7759 2 года назад

The backhoe with "side shift" is made by JCB. JCB is very much of UK origin. I don't know if any other brands offer anything similar to the JCB in respect to being able to traverse the hoe laterally, but it was a JCB innovation. At least the hoe swing/pivot function uses traditional hydraulic cylinders instead of the infamous Massey hydraulic rotor motor. (refer to the Watch Wes Work You Tube channel for a couple of episodes on that). The oil circuit you put the hose on is the supply (suction) line going to the hydraulic pump. The only thing about using a nondescript generic hose is whether it is oil resistant or not. If it begins to swell, or get spongy or gummy, it wasn't oil resistant.

@super6954 2 года назад

The side shift is whats known as the European style, versus the North American known as the center mount . Pretty well all the backhoes sold by JCB Case, Cat, Ford NH ,volvo and what ever companies making the Massey now have a side shift machine for the U.K/ European market, the center mount is rare over there ,the market is totally opposite. I have a side shift JCB here in Canada and there are several more around this area to, There was a guy imported several Case S,S' as well but I don't see them around. They have advantages for working in tighter areas than a center mount. If you'd ever used one for some jobs you'd never go back to a center mount. I was born and raisedin the U.K with side shift and got lucky finding one here for sale. I didn't even want a center mount My friend here from the U.K has an older CM MF than this one, He hates it is all I can say that he's said is polite about it LO.L.

My experience with perkins engines (mostly 1004-4’s in my case) is that they can take a lot of abuse, but are seriously let down by their pumps. Seals give way on the high pressure fuelpump and voila, oil level magicly rises in the sump. Bleeding them is a fun affair aswell.. i put a generic automotive 12v lift pump on my excavator and removed the mechanical lift pump alltogether as crappy membranes are also a source of oil sorcery. Then i found out my newly rebuilt lucas cav did not like beeing overpressurized on the feed side leading to yet again, oil sorcery. I found that the lucas has enough suction in it self to get diesel and in your case gravity will help too if above thing apply to your engine

The words Lucas pump says it all... Lucas parts-->nightmare material. I`m fighting my way through an abandoned 60s Jaguar restauration project, car has all Lucas electronics so its fighting me every step of the way..

@@marks8068 Using the word 'electronics' in the same sentence as 'Lucas' is an oxymoron of the highest order. Source: 1960's Norton 650. (You are a brave man to rely on OEM / Lucas...)

@@Le_Comte_de_Monte_Felin Thanks :) Ive been working on that car for most of a year now, it got to me as a rolling bare repainted shell, everything else in boxes, nothing labeled, and its been in pieces since about when I was born (1980) so all the technology is way older than Ive ever worked on.. but the owner happily pays every monthly bill I give him, that helps with motivation!

I seen at the end of the video the front bucket and the backhoe was moving. Can't wait to see follow up video on the progress of the tractor.

Yes I got the hydraulics working... You'll see that on the next video of this machine!

What a runner! It looked like front axle wasn’t doing any driving when the rears slipped when loading? Is there a 4x4/2x4 lever somewhere? I love watching your stuff! Can’t wait to see it being used same with Red!

@SalvageWorkshop 2 года назад

The front was skidding around on the bucket in the front, and because of the fact that I had NO hydraulics as well as the uneven ground i was on, it wasn't letting the front axle steer very well! There is a button on the dash that engages the 4wd... I figured that out WELL after I filmed this video! Thanks for watching and commenting, I truly appreciate it!

You only had to pull back on the loader up lever ....tie it back, in order to jack up the loader....it lets the oil circulate out of the cylinders. Then release the lever to hold.

Another great video, thoroughly enjoyed it 👍 Just a thought, when you remove the pump and driveshaft, replace the fan/alternator belt at the same time, saves having to remove everything again should it break. Looking forward to the next video 👍

Same on my old 455c Ford/New Holland... if the v-belt breaks you have to jump through hoops to change it
