| Gears | 12 forward and 4 reverse |
| Clutch | 279.4mm dry disc |
| Oil capacity | 40qts / 37.9L |
| Description | Four synchronized gears in three ranges, plus reverse range. |
TRANSMISSION 2
The Massey Ferguson 194F tractor features a creeper transmission with 20 forward and 8 reverse gears, which offers exceptional versatility for precision tasks such as plowing or cultivating in tight spaces. The dry disc clutch enhances durability and reduces maintenance needs, albeit at the cost of a potentially harsher engagement compared to wet clutches. Ideal for small to medium-scale farming operations, this tractor is well-suited for continuous use in varied field conditions, making it a reliable choice for specialized agricultural applications.

MASSEY FERGUSON 194F TIRES
The Massey Ferguson 194F, equipped with 2WD and standard agricultural tires, offers good maneuverability and stability for light to moderate fieldwork. The front tire options (7.50-16 or 10.5-18) provide flexibility in traction and load-bearing, while the rear tire size (16.9-24) enhances flotation in softer soils. However, its 2WD configuration may limit performance on steep terrains or in muddy conditions, making it less suitable for heavy-duty applications compared to 4WD models.
