Engine 68hp / 50.7kW

ENGINE DETAIL

The Massey Ferguson 2225 features a Perkins 1004-40 engine, offering a solid power output of 68 hp at a rated RPM of 2200, making it suitable for mid-range agricultural tasks. Its 4-cylinder, liquid-cooled design ensures efficient thermal management, although the direct injection fuel system may necessitate higher-quality diesel to optimize performance and minimize emissions. A potential challenge in cold climates is ensuring adequate cranking power, supported by a 12-volt starter system.

MASSEY FERGUSON 2225 ENGINE

The Massey Ferguson 2225 tractor is powered by a Perkins 4.0L 4-cylinder diesel engine, providing robust performance for various agricultural applications. With a total fuel capacity of up to 99.9L when including the optional auxiliary tank, it ensures extended operational range, minimizing downtime during fieldwork. However, the relatively small standard fuel tank (17.7 gal) may require more frequent refueling in high-consumption scenarios, especially in demanding tasks.

TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW

The Massey Ferguson 2225 tractor features a 15-speed synchro shuttle transmission, offering smooth directional changes and enhanced control during operation, which is ideal for varied tasks like field work or loading. Additionally, the 30-speed two-speed power shift allows for quick adjustments to engine power and speed, optimizing performance on different terrains and conditions. However, the complexity of this transmission system may require more maintenance and operator training compared to simpler systems.

Gears 15 forward and reverse
Clutch 304.8mm cerametallic dry disc
Description A 30 KPH 12-speed shuttle is standard with two-wheel drive, a 40 KPH 15-speed shuttle is standard with four-wheel drive. Also available with creeper.

TRANSMISSION 2

The Massey Ferguson 2225 features a two-speed power shift transmission, offering 30 gears for enhanced operational versatility in both forward and reverse, which is beneficial for tasks requiring precise speed control. The optional creeper gear further extends low-speed capabilities, ideal for applications such as tilling or road maintenance. However, the complexity of additional gearing may demand more maintenance and operator training compared to standard transmissions.
