Engine Manufacturer:
Massey Ferguson (likely Perkins or similar OEM)
Engine Type:
Diesel, typically turbocharged and intercooled for higher power output.
Displacement And Configuration:
Specific displacement varies by engine option but typically in the range of 6.0-7.5 liters, inline 6-cylinder configuration common for this class.
Horsepower Range:
Horsepower ratings typically range from approximately 150 to over 200 HP, depending on the specific engine variant and configuration.
Torque Characteristics:
Engineered for high torque output at low RPMs to provide pulling power for heavy implements.
Fuel Injection Type:
Likely employs a high-pressure mechanical or electronic diesel injection system.
Engine Oil And Filter:
Typically every 250-500 operating hours, depending on operating conditions and oil type. Specific intervals detailed in manual.
Transmission Hydraulic Fluid:
Usually every 1000-2000 operating hours. Manual will specify exact intervals and filter change requirements.
Engine Oil Type:
API CG-4 or CJ-4 rated diesel engine oil, with viscosity grade specified based on ambient temperature (e.g., 15W-40).
Hydraulic Fluid Type:
Tractor Hydraulic Fluid (THF) or equivalent Universal Tractor Transmission Oil (UTTO) meeting Massey Ferguson specifications (e.g., M1135, M1145).
Common Wear Items:
As with any heavy machinery, common wear items include clutch components, brake pads, hydraulic hoses, and seals. The manual provides guidance on inspection and replacement.
