Either the two had just broken down, or else they had just been fixed oakleaf

Arable Farmer Mar 16, 2013 20,209 20,117 186 Fen Edge Spent hours as a kid riding on a 1530. was very little bother apart from when oil pump went. Nearby there were a 1540 a 1545 and a 1550, the later two without cabs. What were the differences between 1530 and 1540? Our 1530 had a 12ft cut and neighbours 1540(can't remember if it was an S or not) was only 10........ Timbo75

What sorta money might Mr Cowle be looking for this do you think? http://www.rodneycowlemachinery.co.uk/c1434.html colhonk

The main difference between the 1530 and the 1540 is that the 1540 had a rotary separator, a bit more power and bigger grain tank. The 1545 was basic 5 walker machine, the 1550 was similar but again with a rotary separator, more power and a bigger tank.

That is strange because the M140 was named the Armada by New Holland but only the very first models had decals with the name. Loads of 1530s, 1540s, 1545 and 1550s here still. Really surprising! Quite a few UK imports that came over during the late 70s and early 80s actually. They are good machines if you have a few acres to cut but can noticeably see the capacity deteriorating when straw gets damp. Parts are getting an issue as we don't have any combine breakers. Thinking about it pretty much all NH build (M133, 135, 140) followed by the 1500 range, 8000 and TX were bombproof. Yes things went wrong but loads about still and parts can be sourced. Can't see as many Dominators! D

When the first Leon clayes combines came here imported by Bamfords in the 60s the m140 was also called the landlord

Further up this thread, it implies that S designation stood for rotary separator. So you could buy a 1540 and a 1540S........ Richard Devon

Arable Farmer Mar 16, 2013 20,209 20,117 186 Fen Edge Posted this on another thread but thought might be of interest........ Man here used to cut over 250acres year in year out with a 1530 until around the year 2000. Only 5t trailers and no drier. All got done without being very late. Incredible really. Now contract farmed. For classic combine fans at this time neighbours had 2 Claas Sen 70s on 250acres. Now run a Lex 480!
