David Brown Tractors Vol 3.Intelligent Tractors DVD - Description
This is the third volume of the definitive three-part history of the one of the world's most famous farm tractor manufacturers - David Brown.
Producer David Wood presents unique film footage of the history of the American tractor company Case, who bought David Brown Tractors Ltd in 1972.
This 'intelligent tractor' DVD explains in detail the sophisticated electronic control centre of the Case 94 tractor. It takes a detailed look at working examples such as the 1494 and 1694 versions working hard in both the agricultural industry and on highway duties whist demonstrating all the main features of the Case 94.
Also featured are the Case 94 tractors over 110hp. All these models were produced in the USA, and includes the Case 2094, 2294, 4694 models and the powerful 277hp Case 4894 tractor in action.
In the final section of this fascinating programme, we have an in-depth look at the David Brown assembly line at Meltham, West Yorkshire. We follow the construction of a tractor from the engine, transmission and hydraulics - right through to the fitting of the cab, bodywork and, finally, the wheels.
