Trying out the Massey Ferguson 585

A great verse to go with the video. Thank you. Dave.

Great video. I have a 587 PTO 12' and use it to harvest lucrne seed and the occasional cereal crop we have on our small farm. I am always complemented on a fine sample.

Great video, good to see someone has the patience to still use these old machines.

Hi Luke I have one of these on my farm. What year were they built?

[@Lukewenke03]

Early to late sixties I think?

Time for another video Luke ? Noticed no water stain on the oats , 2019 sure was a dry finish and then the fires ! Did you give it a run again this harvest in a better crop ?

[@Lukewenke03]

Yes I did give it another go this and I have made another video this season. If you look through my channel you should find it.

Will have a look . Also involved with some " vintage " harvesting this year ! My bro has a claas 75 r in exceptional condition , we did flat on the ground oats & then 42 ha of grass seed . Benz powered & sounds like a modern machine at a distance !

Hello Luke . I have used my Massey 585 and I was going to send you a video but it seems I can’t do it here in comments .

[@Lukewenke03]

You could try sending it through email ([e-mail])

Hello Luke , I need you here to show me how to use one of these machines! It’s sitting ready to go and it keeps on raining ! It was given to me . Yours is a tidier machine was it your Grandfathers ?

[@Lukewenke03]

No, I went out and brought it.
