MASSEY FERGUSON 133 POWER

Engine 37.5hp / 28.0kW

ENGINE DETAIL

The Massey Ferguson 133 tractor, powered by the Perkins AD3.144 diesel engine, delivers 37.5 hp at a rated RPM of 2150, with a torque peak of 99.8 lb-ft at 1300 RPM, making it suitable for moderate agricultural tasks requiring steady power delivery. The direct injection fuel system enhances fuel efficiency and responsiveness, although the 16.5:1 compression ratio suggests it may be sensitive to fuel quality and requires high-grade diesel. With a compact design and manageable oil (6.3 quarts) and coolant (10.8 quarts) capacities, this model is advantageous for small to medium operations but may challenge users with less experience in maintenance practices.

TRANSMISSION

The Massey Ferguson 133 features an 8-speed forward and 2-speed reverse transmission, providing versatile gear selection for varying terrain and load conditions, which is advantageous for optimized fieldwork efficiency. The dry disc clutch system offers reliable power transfer and durability; however, it may require more frequent maintenance compared to wet clutches in high-slip scenarios. This configuration suits agricultural operations requiring precise control and adaptability, particularly in tillage and transport applications.

MECHANICAL

The Massey Ferguson 133 features a 4x2 2WD chassis, which provides adequate traction for light agricultural tasks but may struggle on uneven terrain or in wet conditions. Its manual steering offers simplicity and ease of maintenance, although it may require more physical effort compared to power steering systems. With an 8-speed transmission, it enables versatility in speed selection, beneficial for a range of activities from mowing to tilling, albeit with limited comfort due to the open operator station design.

MASSEY FERGUSON 133 TIRES

The Massey Ferguson 133 features an agricultural front tire size of 4x19 and rear tire size of 11.2/10x28, optimizing traction and stability for various farming applications. The smaller front tires allow for improved maneuverability in tight spaces, while the larger rear tires provide enhanced flotation and reduced soil compaction, crucial for efficient tillage. However, the tire size can limit performance on very uneven terrain, where a larger front tire might be advantageous for added clearance.
