ENGINE DETAIL
The Massey Ferguson 210 tractor features a Toyosha diesel engine with a modest 25hp output and a 23:1 compression ratio, making it suitable for light agricultural tasks and close-quarters operations. Its compact size, with a displacement of 1.3L, provides advantages in fuel efficiency and ease of handling, though it may struggle with heavy-duty applications. Regular maintenance of the paper air cleaner and the 4.2qt oil capacity is crucial to ensure optimal performance and longevity of the engine.

MASSEY FERGUSON 210 ENGINE
The Massey Ferguson 210 is equipped with a Toyosha 1.3L 2-cylinder diesel engine, which provides a balance of power and fuel efficiency, making it suitable for light to medium agricultural tasks. Its 7.1-gallon (26.9L) fuel tank capacity allows for extended operational time between refueling, ideal for small farming operations or garden maintenance. However, the limited engine displacement may restrict performance under heavy loads or challenging terrain, necessitating careful consideration of operational use cases.

TRANSMISSION
The Massey Ferguson 210 tractor features a 12 forward and 3 reverse gear system, providing versatility for various field applications, especially in low to medium speed tasks. Its mechanical dry disc clutch, size 215mm, offers reliable engagement but may require more maintenance compared to hydraulic systems. With a 2WD oil capacity of 22.2 qts and 4WD at 27.5 qts, proper lubrication management is crucial for optimal performance and longevity, particularly in demanding conditions.

MECHANICAL
The Massey Ferguson 210 tractor features a 4x2 2WD or optional 4x4 MFWD, providing versatility for various terrains, although the manual steering may limit maneuverability in tight spaces. Its mechanical drum brakes are effective for basic stopping needs but may lack the responsiveness and ease of maintenance compared to modern hydraulic systems. Ideal for simple farming tasks, the open operator station ensures good visibility but may expose the operator to weather conditions, making it necessary to consider comfort and safety accessories if used frequently in adverse conditions.

MASSEY FERGUSON 210 TIRES
The Massey Ferguson 210 tractor is available in both 2WD and 4WD configurations, with tire sizes optimized for agricultural applications, providing versatility for different terrains. Key advantages of 4WD include improved traction and stability on uneven surfaces, while the 2WD version may offer better fuel efficiency on flatter terrains. However, tire selection affects performance; ag tires enhance grip for fieldwork, while lawn/turf tires are suitable for maintaining turf, presenting challenges regarding application-specific performance.

DIMENSIONS & TIRES
The Massey Ferguson 210 tractor offers a robust weight range of 2325 to 3180 pounds, which enhances stability but may limit mobility in soft soil conditions. The 2WD configuration features a longer wheelbase (60.4 inches), providing improved traction for tasks on firm ground; however, this could reduce maneuverability compared to the more compact 4WD option (59.4 inches). The front tire size of 5.00-15 is suitable for standard field applications, but additional consideration should be given to rear tire selection for optimal load-bearing and soil compaction management.
