Smallholder Tractor Parts

[LGF]

Where in Yorkshire or UK can I buy parts for a Smallholder Tractor

 

[Dry Rot]

Ebay?

 

[Still Farming]

Is that make or range?

 

[LGF]

Its the make . It has a Lambordini engine. Just wondering if another manufacturer has comparable parts...

 

[Sharpy]

Were they not based on the Ferguson te20 and 35?

 

[LGF]

Many thanks - will investigate further

Stick up a photo or 2, someone will know what you have.

Kearsley Tractors?

Here are some pics of the Smallholder

 

[Dave W]

you've posted everything but the engine.
What do you actually need?
The company was dissolved in 2000

 

[LGF]

A Throttle cable and the left brake isn't working.

 

[Dave W]

You'll need to be slightly creative then. You're not going to find genuine smallholder tractor parts. They don't exist.
take the cable to a motor factors or agricultural engineers and see if they can make something up.
if the brakes don't work because something is broken then you might need a fabricator to make something.

Thanks , Dave W.

Hi,

Old thread but came across it when googling for the same tractor. It's the only one I've seen apart from mine! You may well have already found this out but if not: the tractor is, underneath the 'Smallholder' badges, a Valpadana. Designed in Italy, manufactured (probably) under license by Yagmur in Turkey (the European bit, hence the 'made in Europe' sticker) and badged up by Smallholder presumably when they decided they needed a modern 4wd model allongside their re-engined Fergies. The model is 4035 and you can (or could) get an operator's manual for that from Agrimanuals. If not I have one. I've yet to need non-generic parts but Valpadana are still going strong as part of Argo (McCormick & Landini - both distributed in the UK), and Yagmur sold the identical machine (AFAIK) as the 'Efsane 35' so that's another possible route, they're still going too. Good little machine IMO, hates cold starts though.

Good day RGT,
Smallholder owners unite!
I too have a Smallholder/Valpandana and have found it to be a very capable compact tractor, I would like very much to get hold an operators manual and I see you say you have one ( I have tried Agrimanuals, no joy.) I would be very happy to reimburse you if you would be kind enough to copy it and forward it to me please.
Live long and prosper.

P S I know of another one thats been parked under a hedge for a long time, might try and buy it, sure to become collectors items.

 

[Linchpin]

Agrimanuals do have them, I've just bought one. Look for Valpadana Serie 4000 Synchro.
It's a shame there's not an owners group, I've got lots of questions!
Proper little tractor though!

Good old Italian badge engineering.... Still going on nowadays
