Once Wanted - Manuals for Massey-Harris Potato Diggers

Postby Rudi » Sun Aug 20, 2006 12:35 pm

Guys and Gals!

I still am in great need of Owner's and Part's Manuals for the Massey-Harris #1 or #2 (I think those are the right model numbers) Potato Diggers. These are usually horse drawn, weigh a ton.. but are absolutely wonderful to pull behind Ellie...

I need to get parts for my second one, and to understand compeletly how to set up both of em..

Thanks

I found a brochure page on the Potato Diggers from Massey-Harris.

There are two versions here... mine is the top one, that is the one without the motor....

Again, any help in locating some manuals for this item, or even brochures would be appreciated..

Guys:

This is gonna surprise you.. it blew me away.

Eugene suggested I try Agco.. so I did. I wrote to Customer Service and explained what I needed. Seems they had an original Erecting Instructions for the Massey-Harris No. 1 Potato Digger, including Care and Operating Instructions booklet. It arrived in the morning post on Monday. It was even originally printed here in Canada.. wow!

Anyways, I have found out that the No. 1, is the ground driven one that I have, the No. 2, is the same but the chain and all is motorized.. No.1 is the first one on top in the above brochure and the No. 2 is the one with the thingy on top..

So sometimes the new owners can be helpful. In this case all I can say is that they were Wonderful and went well and beyond. My hat is off to Agco on this one :!:

Thanks for all the help guys..
