Spent hours on 1200s when i left school this seems a nice working example never came across one with a turbo kit fitted like this one i bet it pulls like a train
@@CowfarmerDan Our 2wd 1100 bought new in 1969 had both 540rpm and 1000 rpm PTO and was supplied with 2 separate stub shafts, 1 6 spline for the 540 and 1 21 spline for the 1000
Is it possible to convert it to 540 Dan? I know very little about the 1200 but presumed it's a case of changing the shaft but I'm guessing not? Could you do a talk about the controls and gears at some point? Take care
Theoretically could be converted but would be a massive job inside the gearbox underneath the cab. A few were fitted with external reduction gearboxes but they're pretty rare.
Great video as always and I was lucky to drive one of those machines in late 80,s ploughing. It was one 1st jobs I did!
Great video dan, good to see a classic at work.
Spent a few hours on one of these pulling a high tip Richard Western trailer on a Sugat beet job. Love them.

Farmer Phil been out topping too 🤠
I've watched him.
Nice to see the 1200 at work Dan 😎👍
Keep making videos love watching them!
Brilliant video Cowfarmerdan made that 1200 sound nice
👍👌🇨🇦❤, please educate me on why you use a flsil mower and the benefits of using one, gr8 video
The benefit of a flail are it smashes the weeds up so the seeds die, if you just cut thistles with a normal mower the seeds can still be viable.
@@CowfarmerDan Thank you Dan for answering, very informative educational channel, 👍
I'm suprised how well she managed that Dan! She must have some fair torque in her and why on earth did they only have a 1000 pto?!
My theory is they were 1000 rpm because that was the only way to make 100 series parts handle the power from the 6 cylinder engine.
Loved the video could you please do a machinery tour
Hi Dan nice video weren’t most tractors back in the day PTOs rated at a thousand? Nice to see old tractors at work .
I thought the 1200 was one of the first tractors with an 1000rpm pto
No, 540 was the norm then.

The visibility must be terrible in that for looking behind
It's a long way back but not terrible, you can see both ends of the topper, you can't do that on a normal tractor.
Hello Dan it has been a while since I have talk to you about my 1200 Do you have to engage the clutch to put the PTO in
No, it's independent so hydraulically engaged.
👍
Fantastic 👍 👍
Farmer Phil has a1200 he is looking for lift arm kit for it
Yes, we have been in touch about it.
She wouldn't be usin much diesel runnin like that 🤔 engine sounded well 👍👍
