We used to run a 70" Howard rotavator behind a 55hp IH B.450, even at full depth it used to play with it. Even our neighbour ( Who ran 2 Majors ) used to say "That's the best tractor around here!"
Good b450 but a bit short of gears 👍
Un agriculteur pres du village de mon enfance en avait un ! Il servait de tracteur de "cour" c'est à dire pour faire des travaux les moins pénible ! Il en
posséder d'autres beaucoup plus puissant ! Good footage !❤
The Howard Rotavator was always a very good peace of kit, and makes a fine tilth for planting.
I don't know what is making the old Fordson smoke so badly? Either someone has opened the fuel pump up to much,
or your fuel injectors are worn out? I personally think, you would benefit by getting new ones, and save on fuel prices. ☺
Got one. These damn things are indestructable.
My dad had 3 Majors and 2 Super Majors they were indestructible.
One off the best tractor ever
That's making the old girl bark shame the new ones don't sound like that
An old E series offset. I have one use it on a David Brown Selectamatic 880 & 990. Darn thing is unbreakable mine is a Moss Vale built unit which is 32km from where its spent it's life.
He's working the snot out of the old girl. Looks like it can still take it. I've put some seat time in on a 64 super and think it was a fine tractor. I sure do miss it
Yes, good old tractors!
hes going to fast
@wrighty2446 correct and the drive chain on the hoe appears to be too loose.
it works well in linconshire sand it would not do that in suffolk clay
Meu pai trabalhou com trator idêntico a esse, no início dos anos 60. O trator chegou todo desmontado dentro de um caixote. Meu pai mesmo fez a montagem e o colocou para funcionar! Maravilha de máquina, muito resistente. Naquela época os bens e máquinas eram feitos para durar, não eram descartáveis como os de nossos dias!
Nice to see a Major in working clothes doing proper work with a matched period/near period PTO implement
Bit of hard work does an old diesel lump the world of good 💨.
Anyone notice the damp spot on the gear box? Oil leaking by the looks of it!Just took one of these apart recently and restored the chain guard and skid protector was also badly worn, perfect now,couldn't kill it with a stick,
Great Job !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Absolutely love my Major, we use it for so many jobs on the ranch.
Are you american cause I've never heard any Irishman or English man say ranch
@@liamclarke5761 yes, I am American. From the midwest. We are on the prairie. Vast grasslands of millions of acres. Great for grazing animals on our ranches.
Fordson major, one of the best tractors ever made!
10.hp to the foot with a rotovator .6 foot =60 hp
THE tractor was under big pressure with a 5 foot ...x he wasent covering the 2 wheels with the rotovator .THAT SAID ..the rotovator did a good job
.
Lovely old Tractor...built with pride in Basildon, Essex, England 🏴 👍👍
Dagenham, but totally agree!
Used the Howard rotavator behind a David brown on a nursery in the early 70s , great tool .
You can't beat the good old days, all my old memories came flooding back, now I look at some of the videos with John Deere 620hp tractors and Case I H 620 tractors pulling some implements 40ft wide, combines with 50ft cuts ,it's a crying shame that some of the farms I once knew are now golf courses.
When I see those old fordsons the smell of the diesel and oil fantastic, I bet the friends of the earth would be dancing the cancan seeing all that smoke coming from that tractor. Great video all the best Kevin Fox.
Thank you, totally agree!
Fordson put food on the table in Finland. Even logging in the North.
You can beat the old days. Stop living in the past. It's not good to live in an era, now long forgotten
Forget history at your peril...@@Chisszaru
The cooling system must be in fair nick!

My husband said his dad had a Howard rotavator they used it behind a Massey 35. Does a fantastic job.
Howard rotavators are certainly the best built! They don't make them like that anymore!!!
In our country had shaktiman rotavator very best
From india

What's the mannie on the seat doing? THere's no buttons or levers to operate. Does he have an App on his phone in his pocket to make it work? and see those two large cables dangling under the rear axle - is that where he gets his Geothermal power from to make it work? My dad has a much newer tractor than that and grows tomatoes an things in the Glass cabin. and all that disturbance on a Sunday ! I hope the neighbours ( like the Dad with Bairn and the cyclist ) were impressed to see back in time - thanks for posting!
My father had one of those tillers when I was a child. Sadly, he sold it some years ago. Nice to see the old Fordson out still doing a day’s work!
What a beautiful sound
Certainly making it work!
I used an identical machine in the early 60s. The only difference was that my tractor was the Power Major. I wasn’t entirely certain that tractor was a Fordson Major Diesel? It might have been a bit of a mixture.
Nice machine the Power Major - yes this was a Diesel Major but with a few additions inlcuding an earlier bonnet as it was a very hard worked machine on its original farm and lost its original at some point!
Many fond memories of riding my pushbike out to see my dad ploughing the paddock with this same combination! Thanks for sharing.
Job Done and turns into a Flying Machine 😃🤠🤠
This old 35hp major has a terrific engine lovely healthy sound. Have 2 of them great old tractors. Its a credit to you the condition have kept in. Just noticed even in top gear on the road, she throws out a lot of black smoke, could be injection pump or injectors. Otherwise we'll done love the video and of course the majors.🚜🚜🚜👏👏👏😺. Liam kilkee Clare Ireland.
Cheers, yes indeed this tractor has had a very, very, long and hard life - it just keeps on wanting to work though!
No poke without smoke!!
Clag monster!!!
My Grandfather Jimmy had a Fordson major he later bought a Ford 8n and ford jubilee
Im beginning to suspect the gentleman on the tractor has done that before 🙂
Many, many, many times!!!
Great to see the Fordson Majord working on a field! I've one at the farm where I'm living and I'd like to use it to work the soil in fall to plant wheat on it. I'd love to find an Howard Rotavator, it seems to work pretty well. Thanks for the video
do it!!!!!
Don’t think this meets the euro 6d exhaust emissions. Great video.
Cheers, yes he forgot to fill up the AdBlue tank!!!!!!!
We’ll the old Fordson has failed its emissions test 😃
Nice bit black smoke she loves it my 63 super is the same 👍
This one has had a hard working life, but still plenty of go in her!
@@tractorbarnproductions2009 I have ford 8630
but the gearbox has broken down. Can you help me please.
It is now without movement even though the engine is running
I could not find suitable spare parts for me to replace
2 nd gear on 2/3 throttle will perform better with less fuel consumption.
Aye, he's hard on the old machine,
Got the Job DONE !! and relatively easily and quick !!
Love tractors and would want to bu buy one when I retire
Sou do Brasil 🇧🇷 na minha juventude trabalhei com igual a este era ano 1957👍💯💯🇧🇷
You should have filmed it at dusk, the exhaust would be glowing red, you could have lit your cigarette of
mine, Happy Happy Days,
What a good idea!

Wood like to get a major only had the dexta
Howard are the best!! Is hards
Tis a Grand sound
Needs a DPF regen.
I have one of these n it doesn’t smoke at all like this! Probably worth checking the timing, it’s simple to do and I done mine n was well out n now all set again it runs spot on n starts with 1 or 2 throws!
Driving too fast.
You really need a super major that's got independent PTO' as your E1A there is live drive and unable to keep the revs at one pace, plus without a rev counter it disasterious also no draft control' lucky you only have a little plot there, ! Keep you eye on the PTO spline and seal, 🤔😣
This diesel major is live drive, what makes you think it isn’t, also, that job doesn’t need a rev counter and neither does it need draft control, the rotovator has depth wheels, so how can that be disastrous may l ask?
Look as i stated before you have a Live drive E1a major there that the Rotovator will only work when the PTO is Engaged, What i can see you are doing is you have entered the field then selected the low box drive, and then what your viewers don"t see is when you stop the tractor" you jump off and slide the Rotovator PTO shaft onto the tractors PTO take off, That then is where i stated is Disastrous because you have NO control on safety OR speed, Trust me Sir" Been there done that and got the T Shirt, Us folks that have been borne and raised on a Market Garden know the does and dont" and at times learn the hard way, ! (I wonder if the poor major 3yrs down the line is still in Full active service??)@@glennlingard7851
I love to rototill on a tractor.
great old tractors when farming was farming
Старые)!а как оба пашут-фрезеруют..РЕСПЕКТ!!
My first diesel tractor,primitive by later models but could they do a job?yes indeed as we still see.
You Cana beat the old uns
They like to put out a bit of smoke when the engine powers up, but it shouldn’t smoke like that all the time, even on hard work. Make sure the air filter’s clean and that there’s oil in the bowl. Maybe think about new injectors.
Don’t need them it wasn’t missing on any of those cylinders.
Must have been one of the early coal fired models

Åä
no poke without smoke ..............!
Good old combination working that ground into a nice tilt I wonder was planted afterwards. Nice to see. Rember those machines alright and drove a major back in the day.
It was planted with vegetables not long after!! Glad you liked it
@@tractorbarnproductions2009 Yes thought it might have been vegetables , looked ideal and productive land for it. Thanks for your reply.👍
No problem, thanks for the interest@@mikeman584
The Fordson super major tractor was a beautiful and strong although it was old….!!!
Clean the air filter. Pushing black bad !!!
jobsFurthermore rotorvati my is one of the hardest
Haven’t read through all these comments but your tractor is obviously live drive but obviously too the pto clutch is stuck, have you sorted that out yet?
Bom dia que ano e esse trator e do meu tempo de criança parabéns cuidar de uma máquina tanto tempo assim abs
جمبق
That rotavator is not wide enough for that tractor. It should be taking out both wheel marks.
And I would put it in the next lower gear to get a better finer result.
He should also raise the tiller slowly as he exits so he doesn't leave a big hole.
Una de las máquinas eternas es ese Ford 👏🏼💪🏼
Just another madman have some mercy mate.
Serviço em condições com máquinas antigas, mas é preciso dizer que a terra ajudou no trabalho
Un cambio más bajo y dos tercios de acelerador. Revisar filtro de aire. Lo mató , pobre tractor viejo.
No poke without smoke
Yes even at their finest run in tune, derv engines of this generation even new and run in as the manufactures recommended smoked under very heavy load,and this Howard could be ! Yes she should be dropped a cog ,but the standard ford offering was not really that PTO friendly, Was there a Howard reduction sandwich box for a Major? There certainly some for TE20's and FE35's
Driving too fast GUS.
Too fast for rotovating can't beat a davy brown for it
Que bien muele ..nunca más veremos tractores fuertes y robustos cómo esos
Si tu as que le jardin à faire ça ira si tu as beaucoup d hectares à passer prends rdv chez le ferrailleur
Az hogy így füstöl a gép nem a legjobb,nem fog sokáig tartani
Maybe go down one gearbox your not killing it
Perché fumo 🌫 nero?
Tá forçando p carralho ! Esse implemento é muito pedado pr ele .
Spent many hours in my early days on a petro/paraffin Ford son with a trailed rotavator - happy days. I remember stopping to eat the sandwiches mum made for lunch and in the silence eventually hearing the hovering peewits

I am looking for a replacement chain for my Howard Rotovator. Any ideas?
I would have thought they would be available somewhere! I am going to be talking to the chap featured in this video later this week so I shall ask him where he gets his spares!!
Chains are just chains. All sizes are available in almost any agricultural spares shop with joiners , 1/2 links sizes 1//2 inch, 3/4, 1 inch , standard, heavy duty and all in between
The E series used a special chain. It has an 1 1/2 inch pitch, it’s a 120 with 140 rollers. You can use a 120 but the rollers are smaller.
Great video
Cheers

Demasiada velocidad para el rotavator,una velocidad mas corta mejor.

Saludes desde costa rica

Good

Ok
Q maravilla de maquina
Chouette tracteur !!!
👍👍
Its sein Ebro 55 tractor?
No, the Ebro was based on the tolling used to build the Major though after production ceased, built in Spain under licence

Bel mezzo, l'ho avuto anche io. Ma considerato che la presa di forza lavora a 750 giri al minuto non senti che il trattore sforza troppo e fuma oltremodo? Bisogna che tiri un po' su l'attrezzo oppure scali marcia altrimenti presto fondi il motore
You've not got a good eye for field work fella. Come down another gear and make a job of it.
