ENGINE DETAIL

The Massey Ferguson 1140 is powered by a robust Isuzu E3AD1 3-cylinder diesel engine featuring a displacement of 1.5L, delivering a maximum power of 30hp at 2600 RPM and a torque of 73 lb-ft at 1600 RPM, ideal for moderate farming tasks. Its indirect injection fuel system enhances fuel efficiency, while the dual dry air cleaner supports optimal engine performance under dusty conditions. However, with only 5.1 quarts of oil capacity, maintenance might require more frequent oil changes, especially under heavy operational loads.

MASSEY FERGUSON 1140 ENGINE

The Massey Ferguson 1140 features a compact Isuzu 1.5L 3-cylinder diesel engine, offering efficiency and adequate torque for small to medium agricultural tasks. Its lightweight design enhances maneuverability, making it suitable for tight spaces and various farming operations. However, limited horsepower may challenge performance in heavier applications or hilly terrains, necessitating consideration of load requirements.

TRANSMISSION

The Massey Ferguson 1140 features a partially synchronized transmission with 16 forward and reverse gears, providing versatility in various field conditions. The use of a 225mm dry disc clutch ensures reliable power transfer, although it may require careful modulation to prevent wear during frequent shifts. This setup is advantageous for tasks requiring varied speed and power, such as tilling or hauling, but may present a learning curve for operators unfamiliar with synchronized systems.

Type partially synchronized
Gears 16 forward and reverse
Clutch 225mm dry disc
Description Four gears (1-4) in four ranges (1-4) with synchronized shuttle shifting. Gears three and four are synchronized.

SPEEDS

Description With 12.4-24 rear tires. Reverse speeds are about 5% slower than forward./

MECHANICAL

The Massey Ferguson 1140 tractor features a 4x4 MFWD configuration, providing enhanced traction on varied terrains, beneficial for heavy-duty applications. Its partially synchronized 16-speed transmission allows for smoother gear changes, enhancing operator control and productivity, though it may require more skill for optimal shifting. The mechanical wet disc brakes offer reliable stopping power; however, they may necessitate regular maintenance to ensure performance in high-load conditions.

MASSEY FERGUSON 1140 TIRES

The Massey Ferguson 1140 tractor offers versatility with standard agricultural tires suited for both 2WD and 4WD configurations, maximizing traction and stability in diverse soil conditions. The choice of lawn/turf tires enhances maneuverability and minimizes soil compaction, making it suitable for landscaping and maintenance tasks. However, while the standard agricultural tires provide better performance in fieldwork, they may not be ideal for sensitive turf applications, where turf tires might be preferable.
