For the Invasion of the Waikato, he raised a corps that became known as the Howick Cavalry Volunteers; Maclean was the corps' captain. or 1869 (sources differ), they were the first to import Hereford cattle into New Zealand. The first Hereford sire was called Lord Lovell. The Maclean brothers lived at Bleak House in Howick; Bleakhouse Road in the suburbs of Mellons Bay and Howick commemorates the name.

Every Maclean shifted his interests to farming at Fencourt in the Waikato, in partnership with Thomas Russell and James Williamson.
