MECHANICAL
The Massey Ferguson 1088 features a 4x2 2WD chassis which provides adequate traction for light to moderate fieldwork but may struggle in muddy or uneven terrain. Its power steering offers enhanced maneuverability, crucial for tasks requiring precise control, while the disc brakes ensure reliable stopping power, enhancing operator safety. The open operator station enhances visibility and airflow but may limit protection from external elements, making it less ideal for harsh weather conditions.
