@@Ravneet11111 I'll never sell that one I don't think, sorry

Ok

So do you have any in your sight for sale in your contact if you have please reply me

@@Ravneet11111 this 6610 will be for sale next year

Yeah I was promised a lot of baling this year and none of it came through. Why can't people be straight about things, it annoys me.

@modelfarmer6710 Thanks, thought it might be a bit boring this one but that's good to hear :)

@georgedoorley5628 I went to pallaskenry for 2 years and been picking up bits and pieces as I go. Facebook and forums and repair manuals are all great help and a local mechanic has been giving me good advice too.

You must have had to be taught you were a slow learner you weren't auto dedicated

@@KevinPhelann-gc1tu How do you mean I was a slow learner and not auto dedicated?

@@gearsandtears7643 patience required with that one yes 😂 thanks for following along, hopefully videos of it working to come eventually

Thanks and same to you!

@ORiordan124 You can get them off autosparky but they can be found cheaper elsewhere. Can't remember where I got it from. The horn is a hella highway horn. Solenoid is a proper high quality one from like airimpact.ie or someplace. Not cheap but the little cheap Chinese ones don't work at all. Screw in tail adapters, rubber fuel line and jubilee clips to connect it all together.

@philellwood4058 thanks Phil. Those big fiats are gone mega money over here now. Hard get them. They're supposed to be really good tractors too but I've no experience with them.

@@WayneMescal Year i am a Fiat man as you know , i have 2 16090 DT both are power shift , one is in need of a rebuild and the other is in very good shape , very strong tractors , but not as user freindly to use as your TM 160 , if you can find one to buy over here they are still cheep , around $ 18000 to 25000 nz dollars .

You won't get a better value for money tractor than an old Same. Just have to know how to work around their few problems like anything else. I wouldn't take a gift of a Ford TW compared to the Galaxy. Synchro gearbox, I'd guess a little faster on the road, brakes in the front axle and with the 30 inch front rims in combination with the mechanical front locking diff, it would absolutely walk away from the Ford for traction if you weighted it up. The problem with the Same is it probably just wasn't built strong enough. TW35 is almost a ton heavier. They're ok though. I always had a liking for them for whatever reason. Thought they were interesting. Different at least. Not everyone has one.

@@WayneMescalas I told you in a previous comment I used to drive a laser 110 and 150 for a contractor and done a lot of ploughing with them and they had great traction and I was very fond of them but we own a TW 10 ourselves and I love that old tractor as well

@@ktm594 Thanks, I thought it might be a bit of a long video to stay interesting the whole way through.

@@LuccaThornton-y9r now it's fixed, hopefully videos of it actually working to come when I get a chance

@WayneMescal she be plenty good enough for mowing and baling

@LuccaThornton-y9r I was hoping it was going to do all the baling this year, that's why I got the 540 put into it. Next year. The Tm can stay mowing, it's nice at that job.

She seemed like a good mowing tractor would u buy a 7840

@LuccaThornton-y9r A 7840 sldp white roof would be nice yeah. The next tractor on my list though is a 7610 2wd. I have a cummins 6bt looking for a new home and I need another small tractor for square baling, tedding, wrapping and handy jobs like that. I've enough big tractors at the moment.

@johndonohue4153 Thanks John, I see you've been commenting a very long time, thanks for sticking around, it's great to get the good feedback. Delighted I got the power issue sorted on it, can't wait to see what it can do now. The Tm is a nice step up from the 30+ year old tractors. Power, speed on the road, usability/comfort and simplicity of maintenance are all positive points for it. A lot of the lads I do work for have complimented it so I'm happy it gives lads a sense of confidence I can do the work when I drive into their yard with it. Only drawback is a decent yoke like that cost more than the Same and the 7810 put together 😕 Yep, have 3 seasons baling on hire done now. Was tedding for hire before then along with square baling and other odds and ends. Been shifting bales on hire since before had the licence just for kinda pocket money. It was the summer job that turned into a bit of an addiction 😂

@Paddy6.30 I'm sure Bernard Byrne combines or Andy Byrne will have an engine out of a combine to suit that agrostar if the original is beyond repair. Be worth saving that, they're a nice tractor, not seen many of the older deutz tractors in person. Will the Rubin be put back going? I'd be afraid it will nearly give more trouble elsewhere once the engine is sorted.

@WayneMescal their was one lad who said that to me about the agrostar I'd say we try getting the water out of her id say the water be In her for some time so tis more likely the Pistons could be rusted or sized she would have to be split anyway for the cluch job and as for the rubin she's always kinda gave the Trouble from the start now I think the father regrets buying her back then but he was lookin for something at the time so he did have to put 2 grand into the ecu for the links and when he was going off mowing with her it was like she was not properly set up so their was a young lad that did not really know what he was doing their we would most likely have to drop the Engine in her or try work around

@@Paddy6.30 Well if the sump was absolutely full of water up to the height of the dipstick at the very least and it was left like that for a long long time, I wouldn't waste time or money trying to rebuild that engine. Much less hassle get a combine engine with low hours and probably a bit more power than the original engine. Would probably work out a nice bit cheaper too I'd say to be honest. The Rubin is a similar story to my own Same. It felt like it was unfixable for so long and there was times I regretted buying it. I couldn't sell it broken, I'd have lost a hape of money on it so I always said I'll fix it and sell it immediately. Now that I have actually fixed it, I'm going to keep it for another year, just to let it earn some money back and then I'll sell it next year if I feel like it then. I'd love if ye were a bit nearer, I'd love to help ye sort both of them out. I'm doing mechanical work now over the winter but don't know where to find the work. After I fix this 6610 I'm doing at the moment I'll be at a loose end again.

That's a completely different way of doing it to the way the book says to do it. There is a page about timing the injector pumps but you need the special tool from Same to do it. They don't give the spec for the distance the pumps need to be shimmed away from the cam. They give you a spec for that in the books for the newer 1006w engines or whatever they are called but not in the P series engines. The heights of the pumps were never touched so that should be fine anyway. The camshaft is fixed so adjusting the injection timing will automatically time up the valves exactly where it should be. The book said to work off cylinder number 2 so that's what I did but I presume that was just because it was the most accessible to be honest. Any cylinder would work, they should all be the same. They're a wicked simple engine, they're really a super design in fairness. It does have a new oil pump but I reckon the relief valve spring is ok in it, probably the shells are getting a little worn now, it's up on near 10,000 hours. Can't beat an air cooled engine for economy. Absolute misers!

Cam shaft isn't fixed m10 fine thread but 12mm holes in cam gear

Non turbo piston travel .18mm before tdc = 4degress before tdc can find out turbo measurements

PTO on 130 /110/100/90 had a damper in side on PTO pack not sure about 150/170 can find out

Engine oil pump relief valve is olin the sump a roll pin holding in plunger sometimes spring broke inside .

@@johnearle6667 I was on the lookout for a 150, never intended on a galaxy tbh. People say the 150 was the best tractor Same ever made!

@ I saw a very tidy 150 going through Cambridge machinery sales a few years ago and it sold for £6500 and I regret not buying it , the contractor I worked for had a 110 and a 150 and I liked them but then he traded up to an Antares 130 and a Titan 190 and they were junk .

@johnearle6667 That's a shame to miss out on the 150. Won't get that anymore unfortunately. Still cheaper these days than a comparable ford but still, they've gone up in price. The electronics in the newer ones let them down alright :(

@@fordford9133 Thanks for watching :)

@georgedoorley5628 Very little rust in this one and it's never left outside. Rival to your tw35 back in the day, a proper size of a tractor. I do like it quite a lot even with all the trouble it's given me.

@georgedoorley5628 what work you use the 100 for?

Thanks very much Phil, I'm delighted I solved it on my own. My dad runs the farm here I don't have much to do with it. I go out on hire baling in the summer and this is my first winter at home in 3 years, I'm usually over in your lovely country at this time of the year. I have decided to try being an independent mechanic at home this winter, just to see how it goes. Currently have a ford 6610 with steering issues in. Video next week hopefully!

@@WayneMescal Hi Wayne, thanks for the reply , yes things are at full swing over here in the ag contracting side of things . I should think you will do well with your workshop , just stay away from the late model stuff .As you can see i am not a big fan of new gear, any way all the best and i hope they pay there bills on time.

@endamcguinness2990 Thanks very much :) Didn't figure out I could do it until after I had it bought. It was the one reserve about buying the tractor only having the 1000 speed. Really limited it's uses. I saw it had the blanked place for a shaft and one for an idler the day I was buying it so I had my suspicions it was doable and took the chance and bought it. Got parts books afterwards and confirmed they coulda had 540 from new. Only problem was where was I going to get the parts because these are not common and they all came with 1000 only as well. It was a very rare option. Could have priced new parts but probably eyewatering expensive. Just so happened I took a photo of the back end of a buffalo in the local scrapyard a few years ago trying to help a lad find a levelling arm for his lift. Came across the photo on the laptop one night and instantly recognized it as the same centre section in the back end. Got the parts book for a buffalo, went matching parts numbers, bearing sizes and all that and most of them matched up. Only difference between the two is the Galaxy had helical cut gears and tapered bearings to suit, while the buffalo had straight cut gears and normal bearings. Worked out perfectly though. And at a fraction of the cost of any new parts. Delighted with that job.

@WayneMescal is still impressive to notice the simarities and do the research and get it all to match up still. Had a notion of a galaxy years ago but the no 540 and the 3 speed box put me off it at the time. The laser/galaxy is probably one of the best same ranges there is.

@endamcguinness2990 gearbox is a bit odd alright but at least it has synchros unlike a ford tw. These yokes wouldn't suit everyone, too slow on the road (32/33k), not as comfy, maybe not as reliable at times but a big old tractor like that suits my smaller workload, my smaller budget and my mechanical ability to fix it if it goes wrong. Cheap power. And I enjoy actually driving a yoke rather than pressing buttons. I got more enjoyment making the few bales at home with the 7810 than thousands of bales with newer gear over in New Zealand. The pride in having your own gear and knowing it inside out, even if it's not fancy, is a nice feeling.

@WayneMescal I don't think reliability will be a major issue to be honest they are a good going tractor.

@endamcguinness2990 I've it kinda gone through now so it shouldn't be too bad hopefully.

@@welshlad100a I'm invested too 😂 that Facebook page is a great resource for these lesser known tractors. I can't wait to get it sorted. The last few problems are very straightforward, just a few leaks and the hitch. We're on the home straight with it now! Thanks for the support :)

@@garyburke6410 Thanks, I always heard they had so many good points about them, I just never got a chance to see mine in action yet.

@ORiordan124 😂😂 I'm not so sure on that, he has a lot more spannering done than me in his time. I just really studied and understood what the book was trying to tell me, that's all.

@jeroenaerts 40 years of reliable service, they must be quite good after all! A laser 100 is not a bad machine I hear. I've heard about the oil pump failures but the one in this tractor has been replaced already so that's good. The piston to head gap is set correctly on all cylinders, we did check that. How difficult was it to rebuild compared to a normal engine and how did you get on with timing the camshaft?

@WayneMescal the timing of the camshaft was not necessary because it was good. The engine itself was not difficult to do because I got my dad and grandfather.

@@jeroenaerts It's great to have family who are also interested in these things. They will have plenty of experience. Where abouts are you from. Belgium/Netherlands?

@@WayneMescal Belgium

@kieranosullivan02 Used to be popular back in the day. The previous owners of this probably got good service out of it in fairness but it's just gone very old now...

nothing wrong with a same ........provided you knew how to drive a tractor ........they were not a tractor for yobs same laser were as good a range of tractors as any ......... same galaxy would put any tractor of similar horse power to shame with its ability on the pto ........... neighbour had a galaxy here and had a 4 meter power harrow and drill mounted on it ...... the temp gauge never rose when working the harrow ...... fitted a new gauge same story .......... called the supplier to complain that the gauge was faulty ......was told , before removing the gauge , to work the tractor in a much higher gear and see if the gauge moved ...... the engine was under no pressure at all in the gear that was being used .......but still faster than the food tractor that was used before this that was overheating .........

@georgedoorley5628 Keep them clean and they're perfect to stay cool! They are neat machines in fairness, simple old reliable power!

@@georgedoorley5628 yes I wouldn't argue it tbh because I only know of one same tractor round here. Is that the problem in Ireland though? Too rare for men to really know what was up with them so stayed away and then you hear the one man with one having a problem that he may have caused himself and then that's everyone turned off them. Like new Holland or john deere are no perfect tractors but everyone has them so the mechanics will know all the troubles real quick.

@kieranosullivan02 My supposedly legendary reliable new holland Tm has been quite troublesome since it came and has had no shortage of problems in it's past too. They all have issues. How easily can you fix it is nearly just as important. This galaxy spent years on a pottinger mex 6 but the guy was a Same die hard so at least he knew to keep it clean and keep it indoors because it wouldn't be long rusting.

@Mrmaige super tbh. I did like 12 hours in it and didn't even burn the one tank under the bonnet

She good so that way

@christophperndorfer7763 had a mchale bale splitter on the back of the tractor with years. Got a goweil bale opener that catches the plastic on the front loader of this Claas tractor now just this year. I don't feed bales, the father does it all. I don't have much to do with the farm at home tbh, I do more mechanics. He still prefers using the mchale splitter I think. Handier in small places.

@WayneMescal nice because we are looking for a machine to handle the bales in winter. At the moment we got a bale spear and feed the cows by hand

@christophperndorfer7763 go for a bale splitter on the back of the tractor. Will make your life much easier. Slices it up, makes it easier to fork. We have a feed passage with barriers both sides. Take the plastic off out in the yard. Back bale into the shed. Keep the bale lifted up on the splitter. Roll off the net by hand. Split bale. Back under it again and split it fully. Take both halves and split into a quarters. Can use the splitter to push and sweep the silage around after a day or so. Once you get used to it there's very little forking.

Nice Job Thank you men!

@kieranosullivan02 Thanks. Yeah if things were wet you'd want to be thinking a small bit but it was dry so it was not something I had to worry about too much. Still preferred to bale up the hill at the same time though, just to be sure.

Haven't looked at it since March. Still mostly dismantled with all the parts taking up a lot of room in the shed. I might be able to start working on it again in February? I have a few things to get through before I can start working on it again.

@LuccaThornton-y9r No, finished at that craic now I think. Too much I want to do over winter at home. Projects like.

Nice tanker and tractor

Do you know how to calabrate the Tm165 front axel

@MegaVolvic mine does not have a steering angle sensor, so I never had to calibrate it. Ask the big 6 new holland group on facebook. Or search past posts, someone will have asked how to do it before.

There's a lot of these mowers around the area with the dealer being so close. They seem to be a good machine in fairness.

Their massy dealers never delt with them what are they like u must buy most your stuff of them

@LuccaThornton-y9r baler wrapper and mower came from there. I went to them looking for a rake but found better value elsewhere. Whelans are fine to deal with and good service but just a little expensive at times. All my tractors were bought private. The claas came from breens in ennis and we won't be dealing with them again. Terrible service and ignorant when i went to look at a tm150 in cashel. I don't think the salesman was taking me seriously at all. Bought the tm165 2 days later so I was deadly serious 🙄. Lely tedder bought private, malone was from acheson in limerick. Nice guy. A lot of the rest of the stuff we have then was all bought privately. Donedeal has a lot to answer for 😅 Oh the zetor was bought private too, local enough. Father went to buy a bull, came home with a bull and tractor 😅

@@LuccaThornton-y9r Draw all our own anyway and maybe some for hire then but not all.

@LuccaThornton-y9r yeah it seems to be the way in a lot of areas. The bigger guys might be able to offer it but I'm only still kinda getting set up and have a lack of help and tractors/bale trailers. I've just the one loader tractor and one bale trailer.

I don't do it either I just pay a young lad in leaving cert to come in with his tractor and traler he draws mine in when I'm baling my own and the kverland is not cutting clean bc of an odd number of disks bc it's a 9ft mower u would be better if u had a 10 foot I went to a 10 foot mounted and just kept the 9ft traled for when I'm under saver pressure

@endamcguinness2990 the day I took that video 🫣 plenty hot too. It helped but still wile jumpy. Readings over 280 on f3 range pack is worrying. Accumulator was changed 2 years ago, hardly gone again so soon. I wonder would piping 2 Accumulators into it help. Keep the pressure up for those big gear changes of 6 to 7 and 12 to 13. Powercommand yes. At least no synchro worries in them.

@WayneMescal is it just 6-7 and 12-13 changes. Power command 165 here and they are jumpy when cold, not too bad when warm. If it's just packs it's not end of world anyway. Our man usually says avg 250 a pack.

I sometimes just dip the clutch for 12 to 13 on haulage work if it's quite jumpy

@endamcguinness2990 there 9 packs in it though so that adds up if need more than one doing. More the hassle of getting in to them is the thing. No even the gear changes that take 2 packs, like 14 to 15, 16 to 17 can be bit jumpy if not adjusting the throttle to try and smoothen it out. All the gears where it just changes the one hi lo packs are grand and smooth. Prob want to check that accumulator again just in case. The guy who sold it to me used to tell me to dip the clutch for 12 to 13. But like.....I bought a powercommand because I wanted a full powershift. I'd have bought a range command if I wanted to go clutching. I wanted powercommand for baling and mowing. I do find it nice on those jobs. No ranges to worry about.

@WayneMescal no harm checking the accumlator and if you get some man whos good at them they can sometimes manually set fill times to smoothen them out. Some of them are just jumpier than others for what ever reason I think. If it's a good tractor worth a doing you could buy another one you could well have the same trouble. The change in ranges will be a bit jumpy even if ot was brand new just the way they are.

@patrickculliton698 thanks. I won't do a tour though sorry, I only do hire work myself, I'm not into the farming side of things at all tbh.
