I really appreciate people keeping old machinery running and in operating condition.

[@johnkufeldt3564]

not many parts involved, diesel, no ignition, just needs a fuel supply of some sort , some oil and grease, blank shot ty shell, water to leak out the head(and cool it) and of course someone who knows how to use it

[@danbasta3677]

MrNerviodelvolcan It does look like the one track there is missing a link on it, however, interesting information there on how he starts up this machine and drives it around.

[@doorgunner363]

You are absolutely right. These machines were a replacement for work horses and considered advanced for their time. People considered themselves lucky to have one.

[@andresvensson262]

One of the first tractors to ever be fitted with an engine working purely and reliably on the Diesel principle. The burning paper the man threads into the engine before startup is simply an early ancestor to the modern glow plug, and the gun powder makes the engine crank itself without a starter. Pure enginouity before electricity became a necessity. Is it safer? Maybe not. But it sure is so much more satisfying to watch start up than a modern diesel.

[@MadsWorld34]

I love old stuff like this

[@marco6400]

I'm sure all engine looks like new inside ... 100 years old or more. I love this!

[@gravedigr12]

my opa had one of these on the farm he grew up on so cool seeing one run after hearing about it thanks guys.

[@hughezzell10000]

I can just imagine how wonderful this machine was to workers when it first was new. Think of all the extra work you could get done with it! This is the first wick style machine I've seen started. It was really nice. Were the governors always as sensitive as this one? Bars stop leak in the radiator. That fixed a Cat 30 leak I had. Show someone young how to run this machine and will it to him.

[@mirimusaj7556]

[@switch55]

Amazing start up process and that guy knew just what to do for it. I couldn't tell if he was starting a steam, gas, or diesel lol. Might have to watch it twice

[@rallful]

Single cylinder, 6 litre, 2-stroke diesel. See also Field Marshall tractor.

[@andjack]

A motor like this can run on anything that burns and in liquid form. Like diesel, petrol, oil, olive oil, butter, greese etc. :-)

[@Thinkle911]

andjack who says it needs to be liquid? I am sure that very fine hich quality coal dust will do the job, too!

[@TheLittleDeath1]

switch55 As it said. It is diesel. The thing that is light up and inserted into the engine is something like a glowplug.

[@romanskyromanoff3609]

mi piace moltissimo è un pezzo storico ,eccezionale vederlo ancora in funzione ,,invidio il suo padrone e conduttore ,,,,,,

[@TestECull]

I'm no field marshal expert, but what I believe happens is the flame provides a hot spot for ignition. Once the engine is running residual heat plus compression keeps things going, but it needs that flame to start. The shotgun shell then acts as a means to turn the engine over, by flooding it with gas much the same way it actually firing would. It's typically used for tractors that don't want to start with the crank, but in some cases the shotshell start is useful when crank access is limited.

[@thesantiso]

I don't understand how you get that engine running (I mean, the process; not that I thought it wasn't going to start). But HOW it started. Man, I've never seen an engine fire up so fast and flawless like this one

[@nobodyyouknow222]

a charge like a giant shotgun shell and the heated hot bulb start this thing. They weren't too worried about what got sucked into this monster. LOL !

Cartridge starters were widely used in military piston engines in WW2. Look up Coffman starter.

[@MrNacho1946]

+Lars many years ago I saw a WW 2 movie where some British flyers were trying to start a radial engine plane using this method. They were up the last shell, I don't remember if they got it started. I always wonder about this method and thanks to you you satisfied my me. I only wish that I be able watch again

[@richardbruce8111]

No mate that is NOT a 'shotgun shel!! ,its a 12 gauge CARTRIDGE packed with a measured charge to turn the flywheel! no wads, shot etc, put one in there & REAL trouble some fools have done it! Note he put in a "starter paper" to give a hot spot , like a glow plug.. ..Actually many things start by cartridge , helicopters, many jet aircraft, US A vought corsair too I believe , I think the marshal system was rare for agricultural tractors ,, note the runaway tendency!

[@markb9744]

Loved it. Did not understand the flaming stick thing though.Seems rpm is a bit hard to control, she like to run away quick.

[@TestECull]

I wouldn't worry so much about coating it in oil. Just keeping it out of the rain and using it once a month or so will keep the important bits working.

very impressive, prett sure that was a regular shell and not a blank, says steel on it for the type of shot it has, if so where do the shot balls go?

[@TheWareek]

In the state of Victoria in Australia, the gun laws are that strict that it requires a gun license to buy amination. Ergo you would require a gun license to run that tractor. Its not as bad as it sounds just some gun safety classes and some forms to fill out but even so.

[@flynnt77]

my question is how did somebody come up with the idea of using a shotgun blank to start an engine in the first place? I know inspiration comes from strange things but what the hell inspired this? pretty awesome stuff.

Safety shields add weight. You should be smart enough not to put your foot down there any way.

[@johnkufeldt3564]

back then, people were told to keep there fucking body away from the dangerous spinning parts, now adays, people still hurt themselves with all those "safety" shields because they dont have a clue what there machine does inside. also idle speed is about 60 rpm, full throttle I would guess maybe 1200, and maybe it would run away to 1800-2000.
