ENGINE DETAIL

The Massey Ferguson 220 tractor, powered by a 2-cylinder Toyosha diesel engine, offers a compact displacement of 1.5L and an output of 31hp at 2500 RPM, making it suitable for light agricultural tasks. With a compression ratio of 23:1, it exhibits efficient combustion, though servicing the air cleaner and managing coolant levels are essential for maintaining optimal performance. Its relatively low oil capacity of 4.2 quarts may present challenges for longer operational intervals, necessitating regular checks to prevent potential engine wear.

MASSEY FERGUSON 220 ENGINE

The Massey Ferguson 220 is powered by a Toyosha 1.5L 2-cylinder diesel engine, offering a compact yet efficient power delivery suitable for small to mid-sized agricultural tasks. With a fuel tank capacity of 7.1 gallons (26.9 liters), the tractor strikes a balance between operational duration and weight management, although frequent refueling may be necessary for extended use. Ideal for maneuvering in tight spaces, it may face challenges with heavier loads due to its smaller engine displacement, necessitating careful load management.

TRANSMISSION

The Massey Ferguson 220 tractor features a 12-speed forward and 3-speed reverse gearbox, allowing for versatile speed adjustments suited to varying field conditions. Its mechanical dry disc clutch, with a diameter of 215mm, provides reliable engagement but may require more frequent adjustments compared to hydraulic systems. The oil capacity varies significantly between 2WD (22.2 qts) and 4WD (28.5 qts), which is crucial for maintaining optimal lubrication and performance, especially in heavy-duty applications.

Gears 12 forward and 3 reverse
Clutch 215mm mechanical dry disc
2WD Oil capacity 22.2qts / 21.0L
4WD Oil capacity 28.5qts / 27.0L
Description Four gears (1-4), plus reverse (R), in three ranges (low, medium, and high)

MECHANICAL

The Massey Ferguson 220 features a robust 4x4 MFWD option, enhancing traction on varied terrain, which is particularly beneficial for agricultural applications requiring stability on slopes. Its manual steering and mechanical drum brakes may limit maneuverability and braking efficiency compared to modern hydraulic systems, potentially affecting operator comfort and control during complex tasks. The open operator station design aids visibility but offers minimal protection; consider the ROPS for safety compliance in rugged environments.

MASSEY FERGUSON 220 TIRES

The Massey Ferguson 220 tractor, available in both 2WD and 4WD configurations, features standardized agricultural tires optimized for traction and stability on various terrains. The 2WD variant with smaller front tires (5.00-15) may struggle on wet or uneven ground compared to the 4WD configuration, which utilizes larger front tires (7.00-16) for enhanced grip and weight distribution. For non-agricultural applications, its lawn/turf tires (20x8.00-10 front and 13.6-16 rear) offer a softer footprint, making it suitable for residential landscapes without damaging the lawn.

2WD Standard tires (ag) Front: 5.00-15. Rear: 12.4/11-24
4WD Standard tires (ag) Front: 7.00-16. Rear: 12.4/11-24
Lawn/turf front 20x8.00-10
Lawn/turf rear 13.6-16
