SERVICE  MANUAL 

renewed,  bearing  preload  should  be 

checked  and  adjusted  as  outlined  in 
paragraph  159. 

159. 

CARRIER  BEARING  PRE· 

LOAD. 

The differential  carrier bearing 

preload is adjusted by  installing correct 

thickness spacer shield (3-Fig.  155), or 

shim  depending  on  differential  type, 

under right-hand carrier  bearing cup 

(4). 

The  recommended  method  of checking 

the  preload  adjustment  is  by  use  of 

Massey-Ferguson  special  tool 

<MFN 

245UK).  If tool  is  not available,  an  alter­

nate  procedure  (although  not  as  ac­

curate) can  be  used  as  follows: 

This  adjustment  procedure  should  be 

performed with bevel  drive  pinion gear 
(22) removed 

to 

prevent interference with 

movement  of  differential.  Install  dif­

ferential  assembly  and  left-hand  axle 

housing, or carrier bearing housing (19), 
depending on differential type. Install a 

1.27 

mm 

(0.050  inch) spacer  shield,  or 

several  shims,  and  bearing  cup  into 

right-hand axle housing or carrier hous­
ing  (1). 

NOTE: A spacer shield thickness change 

Is likely using this procedure. When shield 
is  removed 

it 

Is usually distorted  beyond 

reuse. 

Position  axle housing or carrier hous­

ing (without gasket or 

"0" 

ring) onto 

dif. 

ferential  housing  and  install  three  or 

four equally spaced retaining cap  screws. 

Tighten  cap screws evenly  until end play 

of differential is just removed. Rotate dif­
ferential  several  turns  to  make  certain 

that bearings  are  properly  seated. Use 

a feeler gage 

to 

measure gap between ax­

le  housing  and  differential  housing  at 

several  different  locations.  Preload will 
be  correct  when  measured  gap is 0.43-

0.55  mm  (0.017-0.022  inch)  on  models 

with drum brake axles,  or 0.25-0.38 mm 

(0.010-0.015  inch)  on  models  with  disc 

brake axles. Remove axle housing or car­

rier housing and change spacer or shim 

thickness  as  necessary. 

Fig.  156-VIew  of  differential  lock  pedal  (12), 
clevis  (11)  and  locknut  (9)  used  on  Orchard 

models  and  MF250  models.  Refer  to  text  for 

adjustment. 

DIFFERENTIAL  LOCK 

All Models So  Equipped 

160. 

OPERATION. 

When  the  dif­

ferential lock foot pedal  is depressed, the 
axle half of coupler  is  forced  inward  to 
contact  the  differential case  half of the 
coupler.  If slippage  is  occurring  at  one 
wheel, depressing  the  pedal  will  cause 

the coupler dogs to lock the differential 

case  to  the  right  axle.  The  differential 

and  both  drive  wheels  then  rotate 
together as a unit. 

As 

soon as contact is 

made  by  the  coupler dogs,  the  pressure 

wlll keep  the  differential  lock engaged 

and  foot  pedal  may be  released.  When 
ground  traction  on  both  drive  wheels 

again  becomes  equal, coupler dog  con­

tact  pressure  will  be  relieved  and  the 

coupler  will  automatically  disengage. 

161. 

ADJUSTMENT. 

On  all  except 

Orchard models and MF250  models, dif­

ferential  Jock  coupler  should  be  fully 

engaged when pedal (16-Fig.  158) clears

screw  (17) and  reposition  pedal  (16) on 

actuating  shaft  (11).  Retighten  clamp 

screw when adjustment is complete.  On
