Bye Bye New Holland T7040

Rolling rocks and things went bad

[@RuthJones-iz1ve]

Wow, sorry this happened. Glad you did not get hurt. Farmers help each out, in time of emergency. Great people! I hope the insurance company goes well and is speedy in the assessment. Stay safe and God Bless.

[@AndersonCattleCo]

thanks

[@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin]

Seems quite a few tractors and combines poof up in smoke anymore.. cheap wiring and the exhaust BS..... Insurance is always fun to deal with.. I've been very fortunate to have gotten people who had a clue!!! Unlike the 8 hours a day gal. Well, the bucket looks good!! And some blue paint left!!! Thankfully, you and the dog are safe!! Thanks for the video

[@AndersonCattleCo]

I hope i can get into another tractor with out going broke, I was planning on using the NH for many more years, but plans change.

[@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin]

@@AndersonCattleCo hopefully insurance pays!! We've had a couple tractor fires, both repairable.. insurance was good to us! Good luck!! I'm sure we will see what you end up with 👍

[@MultiTurbospeed]

@@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin you might have to get an older tractor maybe a 40 50 or 55 series John Deere cause those things are still strong today

[@csrlivestock7080]

Terrible luck with your tractor, hearing you story I decided to tell our similar story. Like you we were using our tractor out in the paddock with our fertiliser spreader on the back. Next thing smoke started coming from underneath the tractor at the back, because of the cab my son could not see the fire. By the time he exited the cab and went behind to check the Fendt was well alight. It burnt the rear end and cab completely as well we lost the rear tyres, the fertiliser spreader surprisingly was not badly damaged, it was steel not plastic.The engine block and the rest of the front was OK. Our guess was electrical it was around 20 years old but a handy tractor. Hope all works out well for you, it is a blessing having good neighbours. From Down Under.

[@AndersonCattleCo]

I'm sure this was electrical thanks for your well wishes

[@w056007568]

I'm really sorry to see this video from you. Something like this is always a major set back to any business and you have my best wishes in finding a solution as it was clearly your main prime mover on your farm. Good luck in finding a solution to your problems quickly.

[@AndersonCattleCo]

thanks it is a hiccup in my plans

[@w056007568]

@@AndersonCattleCo I imagine a mighty big hiccup as well when your looking to do lots of jobs not least of which is harvest and store winter feed for your cattle! Insurance companies, in my experience, are not the best at moving and making decisions quickly and promptly!

[@bcpfarmandtrucking6560]

Thank God you're safe...could have went bad to worst if you couldn't get out of it...thats a terrible thing to loose...hopefully you won't have to much trouble with insurance...take care and stay safe

thank you I hope to get it resolved with out a big fight

I'm sorry you lost an expensive piece of equipment, but it can be replaced. I'm just glad you weren't hurt. Have a blessed and safe weekend.

[@AndersonCattleCo]

thanks

[@chevymetrodriver]

Good thing u have a good neighbor that could lend u a tractor to get the work done

[@walterjones3309]

No

[@svennilsson8459]

Always the darned cab area where it starts, too many tractors seen at the wreckers with "parts virtually OK as for rear end, transmission, engine and front axle" but the cab & instrument panel toasted to death. To me they look like like models, doesn't matter the brand, from end 90's and ahead i.e. when the electronic rage/race really started in our tractors. Does heavy trucks burn as much? I don't think so. Good luck and I wish you all the strength in the replacement process 💪👍

[@AndersonCattleCo]

I have seen semis burn on the highway that only had the frame and axles left.

[@straightpipeacres6365]

Lmao. I had that happen once when I hit my truck with the sprayer. "What is a sprayer"??? Hahahah oh man ddduuuuhhhhhh. Hope ya have good luck with them!!

[@AndersonCattleCo]

thanks

[@Murphyslawfarm]

G'day baby shark

[@CraydenGamingOfficial]

AndersonCattleCo. That's not good do you have an other loader tractor

[@farmcentralohio]

Reminds me of when Wes/OLF cooked his 4960. Yours burnt a lot more though. Hate that it happened, but look at it on the bright side, nobody got hurt, it wasn't in or near a building or structure or hay stack area. Hopefully the insurance takes care of it like we all hope they will if it happens to anyone of us.

[@user-em8nn4dr8e]

I'm glad ur alive that most important thing the tractor can be replace but alive can't

[@AndersonCattleCo]

Yes I'm glad i wasn't hurt

[@PhluterGoode]

It’s never nice when these things happen but at least you got out ok. A machine or tractor can be replaced, a life can’t. Mind yourself and stay safe.

[@AndersonCattleCo]

thank you

[@JohnDeerefan-fo1qp]

Anything that has been subjected to heat like that is better off left for scrap. Heat like that makes metal brittle and weak.

[@AndersonCattleCo]

i agree

[@stanhensley3082]

Glad your OK. Now your videos are keeping up with OLF. Every day farming can be hard on the heart. Hope your days get better.

[@AndersonCattleCo]

thanks

[@DennysCountryLife]

You have a great attitude man! What a friggen bummer. That was a fine machine. I'd love to know what it was that caused it. I'm glad you're safe, and I hope the insurance companies don't screw with ya too bad. All the best from the Denny's!

[@AndersonCattleCo]

The investigator said he should figure it out, I would sure like to know.

[@georgedoorley5628]

did the oil in the back end boil ..........seen it happen and start a fire with the straw and chaff that builds up under the cab had a cut off switch fitted and he turned it off .....also had a fire extinguisher and used it .....got the fire out but it restarted ...........game over ........old tractor no fire insurance so 100 a ton across the bridge in the local recycling plant .........i walked away thats the important thing .............!

Glad to see that you're safe, Anderson. That's a horrible thing to have to happen to anyone. Yeah, definitely cooked way past Well Done.

I was surprised how much it burned, in a couple minutes there was nothing left

[@kopenhagenkid]

Sorry for your loss of your tractor glad got out ok

[@AndersonCattleCo]

thank you

[@LVFFarmVlogs]

Looks like you are getting a new tractor! Hopefully the insurance pays you enough!

I'm afraid they will offer me $100,000 less than i need to buy a tractor like i had, time will tell.

My neighbor just had his magnum catch fire in the cab while his son was discing and he was planting in the same field. Wasn't much left of it, even burnt the tires of the disc.

[@AndersonCattleCo]

they make a lot of heat when they burn

[@bigdcarmichael]

Sorry man. Keep on the insurance company. They always want to save money. Glad no one was hurt.

[@AndersonCattleCo]

I will have to work hard on a settlement

[@rodneyvanbavel8680]

Hi My name is Rod Van Bavel from Strathmore from Strathmore Alberta just to say sorry for your tractor fire but at least your safe. I know it will be run around with the insurance company.

[@AndersonCattleCo]

thanks my fellow southern Albertan

[@catlockhart6965]

Thankfully you were ok and that's the main thing.

[@AndersonCattleCo]

yup you are right

[@jdtractorman7445]

I saw that happen to a farmer a while back and someone had a good suggestion. Put a master shut off switch close to the batteries, if you have an electrical short and fire, turn the switch off. Then hope you have a fire extinguisher to put the fire out if it isn't out of control already. It may work if that was an electrical fire in the cab.

[@DLKHAY]

sorry to see this Benji. glad you are ok

[@AndersonCattleCo]

I guess I'll be borrowing a bunch of money to replace a tractor that was paid for.

[@DLKHAY]

@@AndersonCattleCo that sure sucks

[@watomb]

Sucks guessing the insurance will not cover the cost of a new tractor. So guessing you won’t be able to get a front loader. So much for your other upgrade plans

[@AlbertaRanch]

Yikes! Hope it goes well with the insurance company.

[@AndersonCattleCo]

[@danw6014]

Long time ago my neighbor had a 715 International Harvester combine with a gas engine. He had it running in the shop and looked in the right side mirror and saw fire coming out of the fan. Threw it in reverse and backed out into the field until it started to sputter and then jump off.

[@dehavenfamilyfarm]

Man that stinks! Hopefully everything works out for you!!

[@AndersonCattleCo]

thanks

[@aidanwhite2836]

U should leave it there it's only the field I hope your insurance covers it

[@AndersonCattleCo]

I couldn't irrigate with the tractor there

[@farming4g]

Well damn.... glad you're ok and saved your land roller hydraulics. You've got yourself a good neighbor to lend you a tractor. Might be able to salvage some stuff off of it, like those rear wheel weights for sure. Probably too early to ask, but what tractor you thinking about to replace it? Gonna go for a Deere?

[@AndersonCattleCo]

I don't know what tractor i will buy. When i bought the NH it was was just about brand new with just a few hours and it was the same price as JD tractors with 4000hours.

[@amossnowdaharleyman9179]

Too many electronics and wire harnesses on modern tractors. All are an ignition source on equipment operated in harsh environments,stored where mice build flammable nests,and usually covered in combustible chaff. Would having a fire extinguisher available in the cab have saved it? 50/50 chance on that.Hopefully the insurance money will make you whole.

[@AndersonCattleCo]
