  • Hooking up the massive Rumely 25-45 model B to a threshing machine and putting it to work doing what it does best: cranking out the torque. Weighing in at over twelve tons, the B was one of the first two models offered by the Advance Rumely company after tractor production began in 1910, along with the larger model E. Power is produced from a massive 1884 cubic inch (30.9 litre) engine of two cylinders rotating at only a few hundred revolutions per minute. Just under 2300 model B's where produced in it's three years of production lasting from 1910 until 1912. Filmed at Pioneer Acres Museum, Irricana, Alberta.

      Rainhill1829 that's the first time I've ever seen a threshing machine belted up with the drive belt not twisted. 🚜☀️☀️😎👍
      My dad and my uncle both had threshing machines and they always twisted the drive belts.🚜😎👍☀️

      @@willfo8358 twisting the belt reverses its direction. The implements often require a certain operating direction, and the tractors often spin their pulleys in one direction only. Sometimes those directions match and the belt goes straight, sometimes they don't and the belt needs to be twisted.

      Yeah, i can attest it take a fair bit of strength to operate these Rumelys.

    Rumleys make some great sound. Good to see it's in good hands!

    I'm a Thresher!! Family had a Buffalo- Pitts engine, we always ran the belt in a figure 8,
    Gramps said the belt stayed on better,,
    He grew up in a soddy between
    Swift Current and Moosejaw Saskatchewan,
    Wheat homestead,, the local farmers formed a co-op to purchase an engine and thresher,,,,

    Don't you just love the exhaust gases leaking from the valves and oil burning off the engine, just as i would have done from new, i really must come to your great country and see some of these wonderful beast working, many thanks

    I’ve never seen anybody put a belt on a live pulley.I’m assuming it has a clutch for the pulley.I gotta like it though.

    • @Rainhill1829
      @Rainhill1829  3 года назад +3

      Yes, the outside surface of the pulley is actually fully stopped in the video, it just looks like its turning because the clutch plates inside the drum continue to spin no matter what. There is a small pulley brake on the front of the pulley that stops it when the clutch is disengaged.

      Yes you are right the belt didn’t turn when put on the pulley.

    It didn't actually "pull" the oil. The exhaust pulled air up the cooling tower, which cooled the oil.

      Much the same way a steam engine used the remaining expansion force to induce draft for the boiler, that's why steam loco's make that cool chuffing sound 😎

    • @elephantcompany6061
      @elephantcompany6061 2 года назад

      Are you talking about cooling the fuel oil or lubricating oil?
      I always thought of oil pull as simply oil fueled tractor used for pulling things.
      I don't understand why you would pull it up the cooling tower which I would imagine is relatively quiet warm compared to the fuel temperature..

      @@elephantcompany6061 I think they came up with the trade name "Oil Pull" because it conveyed the use of oil and pulling power, among other things. Oil was replacing coal at that time and it had the ring of modernity to it.

      @@elephantcompany6061 These tractors are oil cooled, they use oil in their radiators the same way others use water. The exhaust induces a draft through the radiator, which cools the coolant - in this case, oil. Using oil as a coolant let the engine run at a higher operating temperature, which was better suited to vaporizing kerosene. This is why they can "burn kerosene at any load."
