Hi,

Your photo is in a private album. Can you make it public?

I'll try, i got a 10 year old tablet and no idea what i'm doing but i'll do my best!

Not sure if that worked but i really have no idea about computers so please bear with me!

These were used on Power Majors from 1524079, to improve weight transference. They were then discontinued for the Super Major. You should also have check chain brackets with two holes for the shackles.
This thread has the service sheet with these bits described.

@janus,

Am I alowed to use the pictures on the site part of FTP? There is a page about lift parts.

Superb brochure Janus!
Sandy

‘Henry Ford, Cork’. Strange to see that on Power Major literature. Was the Irish factory still functioning?

Have this on my county super 4. Thought it was a county or later ford part!

I think it remained important to spite the cork factory being long out of use, in a film in Ford & Fordson on film 2 they mention it as the Tractor Division "base".

I have bought, with the help of Pascal, lift arms and the brackets in 2005. Thats when I found out that the Power was the only model that uses these parts. It was then that I made the above page and I would like to extend it with the brochures.

nice page about lift parts Henk !

here' some pictures off another type lift arm bracket . that is used on SM or SMNP, mounted with a pick up hitch system.

The extra bits are the fulcrums for the pick-up hitch linkage. Unlike the Major pick-up hitch the Super Major hitch can work independently of the 3-point linkage.

Now thats new to me.
I'll put them on the page as well.

@Janus
Maybe you missed my request, can I use those brochures on the FTP site?

@ henk

no problem !

here also picture of the upper lift arm, ( with the extra hole ) , that belongs to the pick up hitch system for a SM / SMNP

Excellent pics Janus! I hadn't yet seen the Super Major bracket with ato. clutch release , and had assumed that there were so few made that none had survived, but I'm relived that there are still some left.
Sandy

Thanks Janus,

I have a few questions.

Number 2 and 3 photo:
The left one is the normal arm of the New and Power model.
The middle one has a different shape. Smaller U-profile and much smaller in width. Which model is that for? [/ b]
The right one looks the same as the middle one, but has the extra hole for the pickup hitch.

Image number 5:
The top bracket is for the New and Power model.
The second is for the Super model.
The third, is this for the quick release of the New and Power Major?
And the bottom bracket, would that be the same for the Super Major? Or is it the right one for the pickup hitch?

Henk the two on the RH side of pic 3 are Super Major arms; the middle one is std and the RH one is for the pick-up hitch. In pic 5 the top two are std and the bottom two are the ato. clutch release top link brackets.

@ henk

i agree with : Billy26F5 !




got some leaflets / information about the acr system ( automatic clutch release system ) .

but only for the E27N , and the new major and power major, but until now, never seen leafletts / brochures / folders of a acr system for a super major, ( the only information for acr system of a super major that i can find , is in instruction / owner manuals )


my question, maybe someone have a folder / brochure / leaflet, of the acr system for a super major ???????

her some pictures off the acr system for new major / power major, and for the E27N

Fantastic pics again Janus! I didn't know that the E27N had ato. clutch release; and the brochures are brilliant, showing good views of fairly rare extras and explaining why they were offering them.
Sandy

Thanks Janus
