Engine Family:
Massey Ferguson/Perkins Diesel (common for this era and model line)
Potential Engine Displacement Range:
Likely in the 2.0L to 3.0L range, depending on specific model (e.g., Perkins 3.152 or similar variants).
Engine Type:
Naturally aspirated or turbocharged diesel, depending on 'T' designation (e.g., 304T, 344T, 404T, 444T).
Horsepower Range:
Estimated 30-50 HP, varying by model and engine configuration.
Torque Characteristics:
Designed for robust low-end torque suitable for agricultural and utility tasks.
Fuel Delivery:
Likely CAV or Lucas fuel injection pumps for diesel variants; potentially carbureted for gasoline variants if any existed.
Fuel Type:
Diesel fuel (D1 or similar specifications)
Transmission Type:
Manual transmission with multiple gear selections (e.g., 8-speed, 12-speed, or more with multi-speed PTO or creeper gears).
Optional Features:
Power Take-Off (PTO) speeds (e.g., 540/1000 RPM), potentially a shuttle-shift or high-low range gearbox depending on specific model and market.
Drive Configuration:
2WD (Two-Wheel Drive) standard for most utility tractors of this era. 'WT' designation might indicate Wet Traction or a specific traction management system, though this is less common for this period's tractor naming conventions. More likely, 'W' could denote a specific transmission option or a wider chassis.
Overall Length:
Estimated 10-12 feet (3-3.6 meters), varies by model.
Overall Width:
Estimated 5-6 feet (1.5-1.8 meters), varies by rear tire size and configuration.
Wheelbase:
Estimated 6-7 feet (1.8-2.1 meters).
Operating Weight:
Estimated 3,000-4,500 lbs (1360-2040 kg), varies by configuration.
Engine Oil Change:
Typically every 100-250 operating hours or annually, depending on operating conditions. Specific oil grades will be detailed in a service manual, but this parts manual will identify the oil filter part number.
Transmission Fluid Change:
Typically every 500-1000 operating hours. The manual will provide part numbers for transmission filters and drain plugs.
Engine Oil Type:
API CD or higher, SAE 30 or 15W-40 depending on ambient temperature. Part numbers for oil filters will be listed.
Hydraulic Fluid Type:
Typically a high-quality UTF (Universal Tractor Transmission Oil) or ISO VG 46 hydraulic oil. Part numbers for hydraulic filters will be specified.
Coolant Type:
Ethylene glycol based antifreeze coolant, typically a 50/50 mix with water. Part numbers for thermostats and radiator hoses will be present.
Common Wear Items:
Clutch friction plates, PTO splines, hydraulic seals, steering components, axle kingpins and bushes, brake linings, and electrical wiring insulation degradation due to age.
Component Failures:
Fuel injection pump issues, injector problems, radiator leaks, water pump failures, and transmission synchronizer wear are common on tractors of this age. This manual will provide part numbers for all these components.
Parent Company:
Massey Ferguson is a historic British brand with a long legacy in agricultural machinery, now part of AGCO Corporation.
