FORDSON DIESEL MAJOR AND JCB LOADALL CLAMPING SILAGE

SERIOUS GRASS EXTRA 5: With the silage harvest in full swing, we visit the clamp back at Andrew Atkinson's farm in Lancashire as the oldest tractor on the farm, a Fordson Diesel Major, rolls the clamp while a JCB Loadall puts up the grass.

Fantastic to see the major still earning its keep at 60+ years old

[@nicklovell8148]

Ah fresh clean country air... brought to you by Ford son major.

[@liamsmith1310]

Fords and deeres can't beat that! That major looks well on those chunky tyres

[@1liamstar]

That’s a serious pit!

[@derektinkler4120]

Nice video it’s good to see and hear these old Fordson tractors in action no electrics to speak of to go wrong that right hand mudguard needs looking at but she is a beautiful tractor to look at.

Great to see some classic kit working as it should. The chap on the major is alot braver than I am, I'm not sure I would run my major up the clamp! ☺

[@hubertjohnsen131]

[@gabrielbrookesagri9752]

[@davidlyons8405]

Majors take some beating I've got a 63 super use it for work every day now done 600 miles on it haha 👍

[@cattlewranglerwalsh116]

Miles? How did you measure that?

[@davidlyons8405]

@@cattlewranglerwalsh116 because i measured it in my car it's 14 miles round trip per day

[@gabrielbrookesagri9752]

4:48 that was a large slam!

[@henrytomlinson3634]

Hopefully you will read your comments what where are the Wheels on the major I want to do the same

[@stevejones4054]

No roll frame on the Fordson and driving up the clamp instead of reversing, What would the safety man say?

[@richardl7852]

safety man has nothing to say in a familial farm

[@fordsonman]

Fordson Major have heavy bow, it doesnt fall over at this slope.

[@cattlewranglerwalsh116]

You'd get a heart attack if you saw the pit I was rolling with a super major back when I was 16, the pit was way steeper than this one and about 4 feet over the walls. The pit in the video is like a little hill compared to it. No roll bar either.

[@G.5.B.H.M]

@@richardl7852 actually, you're wrong there. The Health and Safety at Work act applies whether it's family run or otherwise.

[@nicklovell8148]

F@#k the safety man! You make good points though.

[@jonwills286]

Just a bit jealous 👍

[@mijnJD5830]

nice video and Fordson Major

[@ericandersen6163]

Old tractor needs weight.

[@pocketchange1951]

👍👌🇨🇦❤, all good, little Fordson nicely rstored, a little light for that kinda work, we only use cabs incase of roll overs, hardly makes a dent in the silage compared to the JCB, waste of time and fuel reallly
