When I was younger I lived on a small farm in upstate New York. Dad bought a Allis Chalmers pull type combine and I used a John Deere B without live power takeoff to harvest our wheat and oats Fond memories of day's gone bye Lot's of hard work and plenty of dust as I remember it well

We had two John Deere 105's back in the 70's . I can't believe how much ground we covered and how we ever got done every year. Harvest seemed to last forever

I ran a 510 massey for a custom harvester in 1968 he had two of them with 327 chevy power and 20 foot headers

Mark Hofman I ran the Massey 90 that day. First swaths we pulled into were 30' cuts . Quite a bite for the old Special ! Main drive belt needed adjusting too but after we got that handled the old Massey ran like a top the rest of the day. Had a blast that day and brought back lots of memories for everyone there. Miss my buddy Larry.

You started a way too fast. That old girl must have been growling when it started getting those wads from the overloaded feeder and you didn't slow down or stop. You are lucky you did not plug the cylinder. That would have made your day more memorable and I know what I am talking about. My Dad had a used MH 27, then a used MH 90, followed by a used MH92, then a brand new MF 510 and finally a new MF 760. I plugged them all many times except for the 760 which I hardly ever operated. I was trying to start my own farm by then.

So it could handle a 20 foot swath easily then?
@markhofman79613 жыл бұрын
@@rhondajungwirth1855 yes a 20 ' swath is what we mainly harvested that day and the old machines handled those quite well. It was only the first couple of passes that the guys cut 30 ' widths and we just had to chew through them as best we could. All in the days fun though !

We had a 431 Cockshutt and 90 Special. The 90 went to a scrapper and the 431 went to a farmer that was starting out, about 20 years ago. I was sad to see it go, but glad to see someone able to put it to use. Lots of good memories with my grandpa and dad in the 431. We had a 1482 at the time so we'd use the 431 to open up a field and take samples since it was easier to do in a self propelled. I can still remember the sound and smells of that Chrysler roaring through the barley!

Ran a Wood Bros combine with ford motor pulled with a 8N ford tractor with my dad. My job was to keep the radiator clean on combine so it would not boil over. Major job to unplug with the rase bar cylinder. Those were the good old days which we appreciate how far we have come with the 40 foot units that are used to day.

My dad always had problems with his 95B John Deere when cutting down medium grain rice.. Raspbar cylinders plug easily thats why most combines sold in Eastern Arkansas from 1960s on till they came out with the High horsepower Rotaries in the late 70's were spike tooth cylinders...

plugging is part of the game.. Of course it would help if the crop wasn't a 20 or 25 footer....

@wiserguy72575 жыл бұрын
They all plugged because teenaged farm boys didn't care as much about overloading the seives and throwing grain out the back and went too fast. We tended to pushed it until the cylinder growled but then we would in take in a damp slug and it was time to unplug. It was better to plug the feeder beater rather than the cylinder.
