1961 Claeys / Clayson M103 combining wheat | Van Der Sluis Klaaswaal | Harvest 2014

Tarwe dorsen bij akkerbouwbedrijf van der Sluis in Klaaswaal (Z-H) met een prachtige Claeys / Clayson M103 combine uit 1961.
Cutting winter wheat using a good old Claeys / Clayson M103 combine build in 1961. Filmed during the 2014 harvest.
Thanks for watching!

The Claeys M103 was the first tanker combine my grandfather had when he farmed at Clifton Hampden, Oxon. Was tenant there from 1918 to 1972 when the passed away. Were we impressed with the machine! Corn went into pit, up to a cleaner and then bagged in corn sacks which were collected by grain merchants from Abingdon. Brings a lump to my throat!

Great video!!! Keep these old machines coming!!

[@George50809]

That combine is older than dirt. Remarkable it still runs. Good looking wheat to boot.

[@dutchagriculture4792]

love it to see the old machinese still work

[@jbmbanter]

It looked like the combine was working well except for the steering. :) Might need some ball joints after decades of use because I'm sure there is no power steering. Thanks for sharing these old combines for the last two days.

Destijds veel tijd op een identieke combine doorgebracht van mijn familie De Rooij. Mooi geluid, 6 cilinder Ford meen ik mij te herinneren.

Nice old combine from year 1961 !! Very nice video !! Agrain !! :)))

[@nagd2010]

Mooie video. Ik heb recentelijk nog een Clayson M140 op film gezet, en had misschien net als de bestuurder van deze machine ook beter een stofkapje op kunnen zetten, had na het filmen 3 dagen last van geïrriteerde luchtwegen haha.
Wel mooi om af en toe ook wat van die oudjes nog bezig te zien.

[@jimgo49]

Very nice. Must take a very dedicated mechanic to keep this machine in good operating condition. I really like to see vintage machines doing real farming.

[@HansStruck]

+jimgo49 At least you could do it all yourself

[@steigerpower]

Debt free farming with older machines. Note the arm strong steering had kept you fit as I'd personally had logged up many hours on much the same combine in much rougher conditions.

[@57629589]

That's the size of combine I grew up with in Idaho. We thought we had it made when we bought our Case that had a cab. Still drove with the door open though, no a.c.

[@agraproductions]

Mooie video hoor!

[@VitaliySunny]

And another 100 years will work :)

[@mijnJD5830]

prachtig , draait nog zeer goed

[@raincoast2396]

Going back to the future! These smaller machines will be making a big come back in the future, as the big agro conglomerates will be forced to downsize or go out of business. The very large farms will become smaller operations, where these machines will come back into their own. It is the wave of the future for farming.

[@thegreat_I_am]

How’s that prediction working out five years down the line?

[@gamingzone0162]

Niiice video!

[@TheGreatBritishFarm]

Very nice

[@xray606]

Wow, I have no idea how you'd even find parts for that.

[@TheTomBevis]

I think that is the first harvester I've seen that had grain conveyors instead of augers. Is that very common?

[@toljankostjan1824]

in Rusland deze rooier is bekend als SC-4,dat is zelfrijder met een werkende breedte van 4 meter

[@guziol542]

Super :)

[@dazoomcat]

wow one slip and into all those blades.

[@kathymackey7280]

did he have a full tank after every pass?

[@Tractorspotter]

tidy john deere se there nice to see that one working

[@peasebros289]

When you are harvesting with these old Machines, aren't you loosing to much wheat?

[@karolbala1553]

+Pease bros lol no maybe 2-5%

[@willmatters9017]

+Pease bros The crop recovery rate is a bit better for the older machines! The newer machines operate under a computer controlled system and are slow to compensate for quickly changing field/crop conditions. Whereas the older machines under human control can react almost instantaneously. The only drawback is the older machines operate at a slower pace.

[@peasebros289]

Oh, ok Thx for these informations

[@pcarroll8799]

Used one from 1988 until 2000. No grain lost, never green stripes in the fields over the winter.

Have a clayson 133 that does all our barley.

is it that dusty that he has to have a mask on?

+lorieneater i operated a similar combine ,if the barley was over ripe it would cut the face of you not alone the dust

@@johngrealy5566 If the wind was up your chuff you would get covered. Barley awns down your back unless you wore a scarf round the neck. I used to go home black, and that was just dinner time, never mind about the end of the day!
