In today’s video we look at the controls and layout of the 2850 Hope you enjoy the video...... As always don’t forget to follow me on Facebook Instagram and snapchat just search gerry6420
Great video Gerry. Brings back fond memories. The first 4WD John Deere we had was a 2850, it was a brilliant tractor with tons of guts for a 4 cylinder. Ours was a 1991 model & instead of the normal analogue clock had a small green LCD display for the speed, rev counter, pto speed etc. The only reason we had to change it was because Kvernland 3F reversible was too much for the back end. Yours is in brilliant knick mate. All the best. Robert
Brilliant video, whilst i mainly drove older tractors it was fords and masseys. I really enjoyed this, never actually had a good look in an older John Deere cab.
Oh happy days...…. from the 2850 t0 the 3050 to the 3650 to the 4240s the 4440 and once in a 4350.....and that wee orange light on at night like the one that lights up my truck cab to this day.!!! Great and fond memories of long yet happy happy days and nights at grass or slurry !!! She is looking dapper Gerry so she is and yes lad you are in the long list for a Hi Step 40k 3650 just like me!!!!! Mighty stuff bud!

Great wee tractor Gerry...note that if she was a 40 series the power synchron is not on the little lever but is engaged by nudging the 1,2,3,4 gear lever to the right for high and left towards you for low.
I drove a 2040s in my teens. The power synchron was a pain in the neck as we had the great stick break a few times. The fifty series is a better idea, I presume John Deere had a lot of complaints with the forty series. Personally ford has the best system with the dual power.
@@roberthiggins6401 Yea, but theres plenty of fords that have had the dual power wired up to a switch on the gearstick if you look around auctions. But yes, the pedal on the floor was as good as any
She is a buet Gerry you have it well kept .thanks for posting the videos always enjoy watching them.and you give a shout out to my two sons daragh and cillian from lucan co Dublin.they will be delighted.thanks
The one we had, had the front opening sunroof fantastic on a warm day and gave you a lovely sound from the exhaust 👌🏼 also think ours had the digital speed display! Miss it such great machines! Got £14k for it
@@gerry6420 Sorry I didn't explain my question properly. What I meant was can you move the whole steering wheel and column backward or forward to adjust the angle? Thank you for your reply.
Sorry for this but does anybody know why on a John Deere 3040 ,she jumps out of first gear but you can hold it in and it's fine also any reason why she is only breaking on one wheel and not holding when you hold the peddle? Thanks in advance
Hola amigo un saludo 👋 desde Perú, acabo de comprar el mismo tractor de segundo uso y no se cómo se activa y se usa la palanca que está debajo del acelerador manual, y como se llama ? Le agradezco de antemano 👍
most parts were on. I’ve this tract since was only few years old and have looked after it well. but I was looking any parts I’d get them from my John Deere dealer or try nick young tractor parts
Take off the 2 black side panels just below the bonnet on front...... then in behind them there’s 2 rubber straps which you unhook and the bonnet lifts up. If you have an exhaust and a air intake then you were better take them off before lifting the bonnet
Jason Gallagher must be differnt set up then mine. Is there a buttons on the front surround above the lights? Maybe someone modified how it opens put bolts on it
Looking back they were no more reliable than what we have now back then you had more mechanical problems than we have now engineering has improved now we need software to repair them back then at 8000 hours you had put a lot of wear on them
She's immaculate you did a fantastic job on her sorted for generations to come !
That's probably the most mint and beautiful jd 2850 I have seen
This was the tractor my dad used to drive when i was younger happy memories. I've always liked how the gears were set up on the 2858.

Brilliant video Gerry. I hope you are better from the flu. Thank you for taking the time out to video. Looking forward to the next video

Out standing condition, glad to see one.

She's looking well mate! You can't see jd were looking out for the user more than some of the other manufacturers at the time.

Good video Gerry an as u said still a damn good performer in the field today 💪💪
Brilliant tractor, very informative!
I will do something like this on my 135 although there's alot less on her 😁 all the best mate
We got a 3050 6 cil, i love it... drive's and runs great! It only has 4500 hours on it. But the electrical system is a bit weak.

And the gear lever rattled like hell🙄😩😂

@@bobpaterson1845 That's right lol, it had plenty of free play in it to rattle
Great video Gerry. Very nice tractor in mint condition 👍🚜
Great video, keep it up
Looks great, very nice tractor!!
Very good mate she's a fine machine 👍
Very nice job Gerry 👌
I like it! Good video
That tractor is in amazing shape. Even with 8000 hours on it!
The car dealer say: It were driven from an old lady... 😂
She is a buet Gerry you have it well kept .thanks for posting the videos always enjoy watching them.and you give a shout out to my two sons daragh and cillian from lucan co Dublin.they will be delighted.thanks

The one we had, had the front opening sunroof fantastic on a warm day and gave you a lovely sound from the exhaust 👌🏼 also think ours had the digital speed display! Miss it such great machines! Got £14k for it
What u u buy the tractor
Sorry what year u buy the tractor and what age was the tractor?.
very informative - well explained
Glad you liked it
Great condition of JD. We have the same 2850 with frontlift and he has 20000hours +
That's what us bikers call a garage queen!😂❤
She dosnt spend too many nights in a garage, if you seen it now you wouldn’t think that😂. She’s a work horse
Very nice2850, I like to have one such as this one, to go with my 1990 MF 3070 and JD 5320.
Nice one Gerry, grew up in these in Australia, memories. Don’t know about keeping the heat out but 🤣 did I hear a gunshot early in the clip? Haha
Memories
This video aged well to do with the 3650, goodman Gerry
Do the teleported aswell
I actually hate john deere tractors but this one i like,but then again nothing beats Fiat 80 and 90 series
Great job Gerry..... Nice tractor even though I'm a blue fan!
Stephanie Robinson thank you..... well whether it’s green blue or red.... once it’s one of these modern classics.... I’m there for a look 😊
Tidy wee yoke bit of money spent there hi 👌
How big is the farm in acres
First
3650 would be in my dream s,never know dream s come true 😂
I'm in throcess of buying a 1950 4 wheel drive, just one question, How do you operate the adjustment of the steering wheel?
Center of steering wheel cap (where Deere sign is) will loose to adjust wheel in and out. Lever below the key adjusts it up and down
@@gerry6420 Sorry I didn't explain my question properly. What I meant was can you move the whole steering wheel and column backward or forward to adjust the angle? Thank you for your reply.

The cost of 50 series deeres are gone through the roof gerry
And the old school no gps for the lazy boys
Less is good that 50 series and the 10 series are the jewels in the crown

Hi Gerry, How do I put a 94 6400 into 4wd?
Should be a switch over on right and side not far from gear stick
how did you get all of the origional parts?
most parts were on. I’ve this tract since was only few years old and have looked after it well. but I was looking any parts I’d get them from my John Deere dealer or try nick young tractor parts
Does anyone know if a 3650 has a 7 pin plug standard
7 pin plug for what? trailer socket?
We’ve got a 2850, it’s my favorite tractor. Most of the jobs I do are on ours, but half the controls (wipers, radio, blower etc) don’t actually work 😂
@Monti Dell I’ve no idea, it’s been around longer than me
That tractor would cost about 15 000$ in Norway, they are getting really expensive here. But they are worth it
Yes it’s worth €18-20k here. 3650s are even more expensive €22-25k
How many hours she got
Looks like 8000
She’s fixed
Reilly_contracting yes was only minor issue.
gerry6420 thank god
Well gerry ive a 2850 myself and want to kno how to open the bonnet on her thanks 👍👍
Take off the 2 black side panels just below the bonnet on front...... then in behind them there’s 2 rubber straps which you unhook and the bonnet lifts up. If you have an exhaust and a air intake then you were better take them off before lifting the bonnet
@@gerry6420 thanks for the response gerry there is no straps.... but theres two bolts that goes up into the bonnet and there located to the front
Jason Gallagher must be differnt set up then mine. Is there a buttons on the front surround above the lights? Maybe someone modified how it opens put bolts on it
Looking back they were no more reliable than what we have now back then you had more mechanical problems than we have now engineering has improved now we need software to repair them back then at 8000 hours you had put a lot of wear on them
i have a 2650 with a mc cab and its completley different
mc1 cab? yes they were a cab option....
They are cheaper
@@HorizonFarming yes a cheaper cab option..... SG2 cab was like an R series
Mc1 was like an M series
i hate 2 speed's they are anoying other than that i love my jd 2650
