I get to have a go on a Deutz combine, 36 years after I first saw it. We were combining Maris Otter winter barley used for making beer ! Thanks to Malc Pearce for some great Lexion shots @ malcp.com

I have extremely fond memories of watching our local farmer harvesting corn in the field behind our house, It was during the 80s and the harvest seemed to go on forever, and we loved it. The combine we adored and which seemed to herald the beginning of summer was a 1966 Class Matador ( giant). It had no cab and the farmer sat up there for hours in a cloud of dust. We were heart broken when we found out it had been destroyed in a barn fire in the early 2000s. The memories we have are priceless.

The farm I worked at when I left school had a 1989 model. I remember how loud it was and the mouse that also lived in the cab! Haha. Very little to go wrong with them though and it did many years of service.

So cool to see a nice clean old combine still working and earning a living, I remember as a kid watching 3 TR 85's going around a field with the chaser tractors going flat out trying to keep up, sadly that field is now an ASDA super market and industrial park.

This is fascinating! Combines changed the face of farming probably more than any other piece of equipment. This marvelous machine enabled farmers to set their sites on feeding the world rather than just their families. God bless the ingenuity of Hiram Moore.

That bought back memories of my God father cutting his small holding in Boxted, Essex back in the late sixties. That old combine had no cab, uncle Ron was wrapped up like an Egyptian mummy from head to foot. The field was only a few acres but in the time it took to harvest he would sweat away several pounds. I vividly remember him taking off his boots and pouring out the sweat. Those men were heroes, working so hard to get the crops in. Thanks for that, it's many years since I thought about that lovely man, he had the patience of a Saint and taught that stupid kid so much about the value of things that I took for granted.

That was THE best video on combines I have ever seen, as kids we would hear them operating in the fields and leg it out there just to watch them at work even at night. That was in the 70s. So the one you were driving hadn't even come off the drawing board I reckon. I remember doing some mechanical work on a farm near Bedford in the 80s and this farmer had just bought to Claas Dominators, one still had plastic on the back of the seat. I just wanted to get up there sooooo badly, salivating was an understatement. Alas the farmer never invited me up into the cab for a look around, I was gutted. Even today I am fascinated by these machines, I guess I never quite grew up 😔 More combine videos please 😊

There's actually no play as such it's just the fact there is no mechanical linkage, you have to 'absorb' the flow in the pump. It's actually very reactive (sometimes a bit too much !)

That was a great video to watch , was extra special for me actually as I helped with some thoughts of my late dad who left us 8th February this year, ☹️☹️ Anyone who has read my post will know my dad was a Army REME mechanic, when he came out of the army he was snapped up & given a job by the then “Testers of Edenbridge “, Kent a Ford new Holland dealership ,as time passed on my dad became re- nowned for his expertise on combines, repairing many & troubleshooting, my mum remembers him never being home much during the very busy harvesting time when combines were most active & required assistance if they broke down, very crucial to the farmers & their incomes !!! Thanks for the video, footage & memories that help ease the pain during our loss !!👍👍👍

Thank you that was brilliant. Back in the mid 70's to the early 80's I drove a M1100 and a M1300 neither of them had a cab and they never gave a seconds trouble. In 79 they bought an International combine with a 21 foot head and it was a disaster as you can imagine field gateways in Ireland in the 70's in Ireland were not very wide and it was only when the combine got to the field anyone thought of sorting that out but the worst thing was the International combine broke down so that was the end of that. That same farmer and his two sons still run up to date Deutz combines. Don't know where the old combines went.

Well L&M you hit the spot once again' I could see clearly that you loved every minuet driving the combine , envious! Takes me back a long while ago the first combine I drove was a Masey harriss, and guys on the side would be sacking up the wheat and dropping down the chute back on the field. My what a lot of graft! Then latter on the far acquired two Ransome combines. My old buddy who drove the other Ransome in the first month he wrapped the the auger round a telegraph pole. This caused a ruction with the boss. Now for the scores; 100% for the video, and for the still entertainment I award you an extra 50%. Nex time I watch a video of your's I will be more prepared? I will be wearing some "incontinence pads ", pissed my self with laughter! Have a good weekend and see you again. Well done. regards Jon

Hi mucker I see you enjoyed yourself on the Deutz I have to admit she still sounds spot on but I used to drive the old yellow new Holland and that was the best upgrade ever was having a cab fitted because the new Holland you sat ontop of the header and gets as dirty as hell and when we harvested barley that was something worse than being stung by a hundred bees with all those little bits sticking into your skin and the old lady used to get the hump when I had a bath every night when I got home, I was going to ask about the Belarus but you already answered that, this is another great video thanks mucker.
