barn clean out vintage equipment

[donnk]

The barn is coming down so need to have a clear out.

1. Diesel genny (min 30 years old) we have it set up so you flick a light switch it auto starts up, when lights turned off it stops. Not ran in a long time but kept in the dry. I think its its 3.5HP 1.5KKW but not really sure, we ran probably 10 60w bulbs off it (before LED was invented). The steel hut it sits in comes with it. Buyer to collect and dismantle.

All of this has been sat for 20+ years so bear that in mind.

Ransom reversible plough.
Flail hedge cutter.
New Holland Grass
3mish roller.
Various other stuff to fill a load, stock fencing etc.
Fordson power major cab and doors.

All located in Worcestershire, have a digger to help load. Ideally shift the lot together, Cash offers!

Yes it looks like one.

 

They send 12V DC looking for a switch to close, then they start and when up to speed switch 240V AC to the load. Thing to be wary of is leaving a transformer on somewnere. I was fooled by a shaving mirror being left in circuit with its light switched off.
