TRANSMISSION

The Massey Ferguson 1030 tractor features a gear transmission with 12 forward and 3 reverse gears, enabling versatile speed and torque management for various agricultural tasks. Its 215.9mm dry disc clutch provides reliable engagement but may require more frequent maintenance under heavy loads compared to hydraulic clutches. With an oil capacity of 29.6 quarts (28.0L), ensure regular checks to maintain optimal lubrication and performance, particularly in extended operational scenarios.

Gears	12 forward and 3 reverse
Clutch	215.9mm dry disc
Oil capacity	29.6qts / 28.0L
Description	Four gears (1-4) plus reverse (R) in three ranges (L/M/H).

MECHANICAL

The Massey Ferguson 1030's configuration of 2WD and 4WD options enhances versatility for varied terrain and farming tasks. Given the manual steering on 2WD and power assist on 4WD, operators may experience increased maneuverability in challenging conditions with the latter. However, its open operator station may expose users to environmental elements, which could be a consideration for comfort during prolonged use.
