What happend to this tractor?
Was it sold?

Great Job, I am far behind with my 654 :cry: Where do you get the decalls for the tractor? They will be custom made by another friend of mine. I asked Mark Osbourne (Who have the stock of County-parts in UK), and the only one he got was the "Super-4" sticker for the back of the seat. Would it be po...

Do you need radials?
On our older tractors I am replacing with diagonals again.

16,9 x 30 starts at 430 €, where as radial starts at 630 € a tyre.

We have harvest time right now, so there is not much time to restore the Major.
After a breakdown on our feeder tractor, I put the Major in front of the feederwagon to feed 150 head of cattle .
Works out really fine

If you are located in Scotland, check ebay.uk

Two signs that could show you a direction: the oil level is rising: unburned fuel goes into the oil system and parts of it goes with the exaustgas , an analysis of your motoroil shows you exactly what is added to the system, costs about 50 € each sample, but gives god advice. The oil consumtion is p...

Congratulation to your deal.´

In order to get some advice, it might be a good idea to tell us the region where you are located

Those were the days....when you earned some money, buy you a tractor that will stay on your side for an entire lifetime

Great pics :clap: I am always fascinateted by 100 years old installations or machines, still in working condition. I just come home from harvesting grain, aircondition on the tractors and combines, automatic transmissions and tons of electronics on each vehicle.....but none of them will be in servic...

Hi Dave, looks like you have seen them before :D I use these batterys on all out working fleet tractors (about 5) as replacement. They are very handy, a little bit more expensiv, but they don´t need any matainance! Only Thing they don´t like at all is a total unloading. That can destroy the batterie...

Man hilft wo man kann

Exactly the pic I was waiting for

I think my favorit will be the Selen ahead of the Super 4......I should have bought the one a couple weeks ago

Do you know how much the Horndraulik loader is able to lift?

On the Power Major I bought a couple weeks ago, the same model was mounted. I bought

Pete I believe your horizontal bars are blue but my knowledge of these is only from pictures, as these are rarely seen in the US. If the grills are painted anything but silver the earth’s rotational axis will move slightly more out of position eventually leading to the end of the world as we know i...

Hallo Peter, the size of the generator depends on your power demand. To supply the demand of a normal privat house, 5 to 10 kVA should be ok. 1 kVA is pretty much the same as 1kW. The only bigger energie user in a house could be an electric water boiler . They ussualy need up to 21 kVA :shock: Even ...

Hi Adrian, hi Peter,

I do have an PTO driven Generator. If you ar interested in furthter Information, please open a new thread in order not to hijack this colour discussion.

Hi Greg,
we have a shop nearby, where I bring the old shoes for refurbishing.
They glue the linnings .
I haven´t done it on my Major yet, but several times on agricultural Trailers, which usualy have airbrakes in Germany.

When the pictures show the original paint, don´t even think about painting it!

Hi Frode,
don´t you know, it is a matter of technic no matter of size

Can you post what the Oval plate reads above the badge. I can not quite make out what it says? Dandy Dave! Hi Dave, there is a funny storie about that badge. It is the dealer badge who sold the tractor in Bavaria in 1959. Jacob Demmel Attenkirchen near Freising Phone 227 is about all that is writen...

Great tractor! :beer: I should keep the mudguards as well. I have seen them before. It's something different. :) Hi Pascal, first I wanted to give the fenders to the trash. But after looking round the net, I see how unique they are. They will be straightened and refitet. Even the rearlights and fro...
