Re: ransomes ts82r
Hello , You say you have an instruction manual for a Ransom TS82r, is that the plough with the modified headstock where all the turnover mechanism is in the headstock? If so does it have a section for the parts of the headstock. I would be interested to obtain it if it fits the bill 07942 862635 Kin...

Re: Ransome TS82
Hello I have a TS82A which runs behind a Super Major np and my experience is that it works fine without a depth wheel but if you are on strong land you may find that you need wheel weights on the front wheels because when the hydraulics try to ease the plough upwards and transfer weight to the back ...

Re: Fordson Major Painting
Hello , There is much discussion about the correct colour for the Super np isn't there. Before I painted my Sper np I made extensive enquiries on this subject and I discovered that Fords used to buy their paint from a company named Masons.

Re: belt pulley - splines
Hello When I start one of my Super np's the belt pulley starts turning even though the selecter is in the neutral position, you can stop it by putting pressure on the pulley wheel but as soon as you take away the braking pressure it starts to spin again, What causes that I wonder. Could any body clu...

Hello Henk very pleased that the replacement seal worked for you. I am about to fit the new seal on my tractor and I am sure it will be OK, it is of the 1964 type that was fitted in the factory and the seal itself is made of leather rather than neolite so it won't wear the shaft so badly, so I am ve...

Re: Loud chattering in Super np gearbox
Hello Henk, Adrian np Major and Shepp, Thank you for your reply boys. This tractor does not have a belt pulley on so the problem will be either a faulty bearing or backlash.
