Lighting, electrics and trailer couplings for the Massey Ferguson 575 are grouped here. In total more than 250 parts that fit this 500 series tractor.
If the linkage on your 575 creeps down with the engine off, the cause is usually a seal. This page lists more than 250 replacement parts for the Massey Ferguson 575, made by GRANIT and by brands such as Eaton, Cobo, LUK and GRAMMER.
For the lift there are sealing rings for the lift cylinder, seals for the lift arm shaft and a gasket for the lift housing block. A lift that sinks under load is losing oil past the piston or the valves. Start with the lift cylinder sealing ring, as it tends to go first. Clean and degrease every face when replacing seals, and do not use gasket sealant where a solid gasket belongs. Sealant that finds its way into the lift housing can later make a valve stick.
The type plate confirms a 575 from the 500 series. For the lift and clutch, the reference number on the old part is your safest guide. With a clutch plate, count the splines and measure the hub. With a starter motor, check the number of teeth and the flange size.
For the clutch you will find double clutch assemblies, clutch plates, thrust washers and complete clutch kits. There are also starter motors, cooling fans and silencers. Always fit a cooling fan with new lock washers or self-locking nuts, then turn it by hand after fitting to make sure it does not touch the cowl anywhere.
Adjust a double clutch after fitting according to the workshop manual, so that pressing the pedal releases the travel clutch first and the PTO clutch second. If it is set unevenly, the PTO keeps turning or the clutch slips. Always replace the clutch plate together with the double clutch.
Long days on a 575 show up in your back. There are seats and tractor seats, including air suspended versions from PROBOSS and Maximo, and plain fabric tractor seats. A new seat only fits properly if its mounting holes line up with the console, so measure the hole spacing on your current seat before choosing. For lighting there are rear lights and headlight inserts.
The Massey Ferguson 550 and Massey Ferguson 565 each have a separate page with the parts listed for that model. If you look after more Massey Ferguson tractors, every model is listed under Massey Ferguson parts.
