Poor guy, our case IH axial flow nearly caught fire a couple of years ago, when a flint caught on one of the moving parts, 🤞 he gets a new combine and can continue farming! Another great video! 🚜🔥

Old Claas Dominators used to catch fire easily as the engine was behind the cab right over the drum in all the dust. The one my dad used to drive burnt out while being filmed by local news about how the dry summer was affecting farmers 😂

There have been a few combines catch fire here in Wiltshire over the last few years. It doesn't take much to start a fire in a combine. Very frightening as they go up so quickly.

Poor bloke losing his combine. I can’t imagine the pain. I’m on a new Holland group on Facebook in France and it seems like it’s sadly a commun occurrence on the CX’s especially the tracked version. Can’t remember the reason but it’s something due to something creating friction. Is it easy to join a young farmers club/ association? Probably be looking into joining one in February

Yer google your local one

Another cracking video, must take some effort each day so fair play. I would look to change those door hinges on the log cabin with some decent storm hinges, they tend to pull down and rip out of the frame after some time, especially if the doors are used regularly.

Another great video, you gave me a fright when I first saw the notification, sorry for your neighbor losing their machine. I liked the good karma of finding the drill bit :-) the sunflowers look amazing, and then finding the cat just topped it off.

I hope a local dealer is in a position to lend Anthony a combine.

Amazing to see how little there is always left of the combine cab. The maze looks great now in full flower.

90% again today. Good news for the cat, awful news for your neighbour. It poured with rain in Preston town centre but only a few spots between there and Southport.

Guess you might get a few more acres through your combine to help your mate out! If you've got time tomorrow (Wednesday 28 July) as its likely to be a bit damp, get yourself to Cheshire Agricultural Trade Fair. Over 2500 farmers and agri trade booked in.

Combine fires are just a matter of time, with so much dust and a hot engine, blow it all off after harvest, my mate used to do..

Sounds like you got you had the same rain as we had over here but we had thunderstorms as well 👍🇮🇲

Another great video had about 5 minutes rain today not enough to even lay the dust all the storms seem to be missing us in Gloucester.Glad the cat has gone back to its rightful owner happy days for them.

Great video Olly, combine looked a beast coming down the road with all its lights on 👍

Hi Olly, gosh that is sad to see the burnt out machine, well done on rehoming the cat, you are a very kind man. The sunflowers bring a smile. Some rain here. You take care and get an early night.

You should engineer a automatic fire extinguisher system in combine engine compartment once it gets hotter than normal it kicks on.

Shame about the combine Olly, is it close to your farm ?? Seeing your combine in the dark seems to make it look so much bigger. I love driving tractors in the dark,especially ploughing😉. Thanks for another good video Olly 👍

Same thing happened to Mike Mitchells combine, devastating, glad nobody got hurt. Congrats on the 19k subs! Great content as always

Yer he made good vid breaking it up

Its a tragedy when farms have a fire. It's always massively destructive whether it be machinery or Hay/straw. A local contractor to me lost his lexion last season in a field of wheat. Some surfaces on modern combines during harvesting can reach 500 deg C so its more important than ever to keep them free of residue build up. I hope Anthony gets sorted ASAP with another machine.

We have stray cat that we’ve given a home..it loves eating doesn’t scare anything walks past pigeons likes defending his patch from other cats..

It’s cool looking at a combine coming back into the yard after dark

A Panthra (black) cat. We have one. It's manipulative, devious, a con artist (food wise), and conducts psychological warfare. You never win. We basically got ours the same way, walked into our lives. No regrets.

Thank you for trying to help that cat not many would

Excellent video. Gutted to see the combine.

Awesome news about the cat being reunited. Gutted for that guy losing his combine like that.

Shame about the combine, the farmer must be devastated. Well done with the cat, what a result. Log cabin looks the business. Strong 97%

Great News about the Cat well done. Nothing wose than having to clean up a burned up machine.

Please olly don’t let anyone touch the burnt rubber without gloves ,it’s carcinogenic highly dangerous, had a nice thunderstorm here in Norfolk 👨‍🌾👍

The plastic is pretty nasty too, I have had to deal with a few burned out cars due to working in the motortrade and had to recover a few stolen/burned out cars from fields/housing estates/the rear of a firefighters social club(my own fecking car) and the first thing I was told by a firefighter when I arrived to collect the first one is don't touch the plastic with bare hands whatever you do.

I drove past that this evening, no one there and it was still smouldering.

Hard work for any business that has a fire 🔥, will need a lot of help to get back on with the harvest, not a bad day today a drop in 1 tablet 78% today

Saw the pic and thought bloody hell that didnt last long.

Great blogs very addictive from Crowborough East Sussex

We had a combine smoldering last year luckily my Uncle got it out before the combine went on fire but it was like £1000 so we sold it and bought a class lexion 580, we have a few stray cats but their useless at keeping the rats away

Years ago had an old combine catch fire, was able to put it out with very little damage, well that was a mistake would have been better off with the insurance money!!hahaha!

Great video olly had to have a laugh about the combine the number plate is still on it after all that heat 😢

As bad as it is to lose the combine, that can be replaced. The main thing is nobody was hurt. A brand new Lexion went up locally last week. A lot of the field was burnt also. My old boss lives across the road from the field it was working in said he never heard noise like it.

niec to see numbers going up mate keep up the good work 👍

I love the sound of the hydraulics going back and forth with the bucket shaking, theyre trying so hard to keep ip

Nice cat story Olly that will be very happy family tonight thanks to your efforts , 😻but it did look pretty happy in your Range Rover👍

Hate to see machinery on fire I know it’s insured but it still costs in the long run. Very surprised you parked you combine in the shed after it had been working, only thing worse than a combine fire is a combine fire in a shed with other machinery 😮 I don’t know how people cope in the really hot countries as the hotter it gets the more balers and combines seem to go up in smoke. Enough doom and gloom sunflowers looking good. Maze is some way behind Millennial farmer some of his 8 to 10ft tall, amazing

CNH on fire again. Harvest 2021 just started in the uk. Fresh Popcorn in fields move over Shrawberris mmmm

Reversing your header with the merlo is the same as doing a reverse pushback on a aircraft

evening olly, its always bad news when a combine catches fire, it happend to me with a massey ferguson but i was lucky with a fire extinguisher, to be honest i dont think you can beat CLAAS, nice content again cheers.

Sunflower are amazing it's true they would put a smile on your face.🚜🇮🇪🌻

Sunflower 🌻 field looks class 👌🤙🤙👍👍 Sad bout combine and Hope he getting sorted out very soon 🥲🥲

OMG!

Great video olly the combine has lights on it

Keep up with the subs and they will start to pay for the combine as well!! 🤣 Keep up the great work!! 👍

Do you not think given the cost of farm equipment there should be a fire suppression system add to them

Brilliant video Olly, thank you 👍

great video

That's probably the third or fourth combine I've seen go up in flames this year

I´ve seen straw in a field burn, that reportedly caught fire inside the harvester and got spit out while already on fire. That must´ve been a sight. Harvester is fine though. Only the straw burnt for some reason.

There seems to be alot of combine fires in the UK.It must be because there so many.Here in Ireland 🇮🇪 you only ever here of the odd one or two burning down.

I feel for the guy and his combine

Good skills with the wood chip matey and I bloody jumped a mile when that tyre or gas strut blew on the combine. As for the lads with their phones that's the youth of today for ya,god I sound like my dad now so must be getting old lol. Also well done and your a top man for reuniting the cat with its family owners

Do you know what caused that combine to catch on fire?

Poor fella

I thought the number one rule was to put diesel in the merlo 😂😂😂

Do combines not have sort of fire suppression system? They seem to catch fire really easily. Does your combine have a light underneath it pointing backwards? If so why?

I really hope after seeing that you have order 30 fire extinguishers, place them in each vehicle, its worth spending a few hundred quid if one day it could save your vehicles or even a life. I got one in my car after watching my friends BMW 2002 going up in flames
