ford4ever Posted August 22, 2011 Author Share Posted August 22, 2011 NewHolland replaced a deutz combine. The small NH tractor is used mainly for ploughing matches Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ford4ever Posted August 22, 2011 Author Share Posted August 22, 2011 Then on to my friend who was cutting a 40acre field yesterday .took about 6.5 hrs with 2 deutz combines. The smaller one a 2680 was purchased new by its owner in 1985 and has cut circa 250 acres a year since.The green one belongs to my friend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ford4ever Posted August 22, 2011 Author Share Posted August 22, 2011 Nice update, I've never seen round bales stacked on a trailer like that before. Could be the angle the photo taken from but do they appear a little uneven?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justy 46 Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Looking at the 3 series Masseys. Ive a question. A nearby farmer has a Landini coloured BLUE MF390 2wd! He has it with the last 20+ years at least. Bought from Atkins in Cork from nearly new. The lad who owns it dont even know why it came in this unusual colour,maybe a demo cause its an 88 year i think. I must post a pic of it someday cause its a real unusal eyecatcher of a Massey. Could be another colour for DBP models to produce! Anybody know if this is common on the 390s? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justy 46 Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 unless it was sprayed for a company colour scheme it may well be an iseki MF had a deal to provide ISEKI with tractors in their colours Maybe but it aint an import id say. It worked in Ireland from new. The only other thing that stands out is it has the old MF 188 style rear wheels with the weights ,34 inch rim i think they are. Other than that it has the usual common grey 3 series style cab like the DBP model Masseys. Must get a pic up, the brother was only wrapping round bales with it last week.

MJB1 Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Nice update, I've never seen round bales stacked on a trailer like that before. thats how lorrys are loaded with round bales mark as you can't stack round on round so the bottom layer has to be on it's flat the next layer is on the round & the 3rd layer sat between the bales on the second layer scroll down you'll see one of my trucks loaded with round bales http://www.farmtoysforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,30941.0.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
