@mumspest1 its a massey ferguson 1080 made back in the early 1970s,the model after the 188 and before the 590, we have one ourselves in original condition, sum yoke to pull for 90 horsepower
lads i said this time last year that i would put up my uncles outfit . there all on m page. go have a look. you think this is old school.this is nothing. this was vid in 1990 mine was in july of 2009. .check it out., and enjoy the grass lads
realy like the vid its a real far shout from how its done on the farm today, me sitting in my air con cab of my fendt 716, would love to see more like this.
I have to agree with you on that one although I did not start carting silage on the road until 1997, but it was with a heap of scrap Same Leopard 85 with a 14ft x 6ft butter-box of a trailer and I had little or no brakes but loved it all the same :)
i dont have any at all. . but we will be sweating it out this year again around July and im drawing in again in style. il take pictures of his machinery. its all in a shed. and ill put them on this or bebo or something. but i wont be able to get a video of the outfit working till July . :P
Your the closest so far, i think its a 188 as they had the heavy centered front wheels and the P.A.V.T rear wheels. So did the 178 but the reason i say 188 is the doors on the cab look wider at the bottem as the 188 had a spacer about 4 ofr 5 inches wide in between the gearbox and back end so the doors were made wider to compensate. The 165, 175, 178, 185 and 188 are nearly all basicly the same tractor only the engine sizes and gearboxes make the real differnces. We have a 185 and a 188.
sounds like you have 2 real beautys. not seen many 188's. i have a 65mk2 and i love her. wouldnt change her. i also have various other makes including db. but mf is a far favourite.
Thanks. MF is our favourite too, check out some of my videos and you can see the 185 and our 399. Havnt any videos yet of the 188 multi power but will get one soon. Have a 65 mk2 as well and wouldnt part with her either!
ha ye tink dats old school..my uncle cuts his own silage for the past 25 years..he cuts around 30 acres..his outfit at the moment is a trail beside (side mounted JF 90)yup 90...it is powered by a massey 185 with a new holland harvester engine in her..shes puttn out 110hp....he has two trailors a 13ft and a BIGGER 14ft.!we draw in with 1 tractor a massey 65 YES 65 NOT 165..it has a dromone pickup hitch and is da fastest pickup ive ever seen n my life..on the pit dares a massey 1200.(articulated )
Aww happy days. i was 12 when this was taken. used to love the summer watching the class mowing silage. also the sound of the marshall climbing the pit.was more of a connection then i used to help out connecting the hydralic pipes from trailers to tractor.helping change blades on the mowers. now huge tractors come in speed round the field then gone!
wish silage cutting was still done like it was when i was a kid 20 years ago. all a mad rush now to get in and out of the field. 1988 we had a mf 698 towing a tarup double chop a ford 5610 drawing ah the days of hooking on and off a trailer and opening back door by hand to tip,taking hoses on and off each load. On the buckrake an mf 165 magic memories took a week to cut what is now done in little over a day but it was more fun den fcuk yur 30 foot mowers give me a tarup double chop any day
i can rember my dad in the early seventies buckraking with a ford 4000 taking 50 yard run up to the clamp now they use a matbro stopping and changeing direction half way up
Those were the days, it used to take most farms a week to make their silage......... sometimes you'd be wondering if you'd ever see the gate again in a 2wd tractor with a silage trailer on the back.
Thanks for posting this video, I'm 12 again, Same Laser 130, what a beast, used to buckrake with one when I was about 18 a beast of a tractor. Nice to see the old NH double chop used to have a Taruup DC1500 ourselves.
That Marshal sounded sweet love the turbo whistle out of it. And the trusty old Fergies, a 590 and a 1080? This was when silage used to be a grat old event.
This reminds me of my childhood riding round on the tractor doing the carting, swapping lights & oil connectors and opening the rear trailer doors. Great to see people hard at work silaging once again.
Excellent video..... brought back so many memories - made me think I was twelve years old again cycling round to watch silage cutting going on! Is the John Deere a 2130? Was the Claas mower reliable or really a pile of scrap? I ask that last question as neighbours of ours had one that should have backed into a hedge and left there!!! What model is the Same? Used to see a 4000 with a push off rake backing up silage - my neighbours could have done with a 4 wheel drive for the job!!!!
She is a 2130, a real cracker. You could spin the steering wheel from lock to lock with one throw. That was his first 8ft claas (up from a two drum fahr), he still has one (his 3/4th now) for the tight places round balers go. Fairly reliable & simple, 3 drums with no conditioner. Only trouble is keeping her balanced, runs like a dog when not mowing if the three blades & holders aren't evenly balanced. Baler men don't like the small swards though.
That was superb, 5 Stars. I love seeing classic machines at work. MF 595 and 1080 bring it all back. Its great to have these videos for all to see, I have a few silage videos too from 1993.
