TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW
The Massey Ferguson 270 tractor’s 8-speed and 12-speed partial power shift transmission offers versatile gearing options, enhancing operational efficiency by allowing seamless shifting under load. This feature is advantageous in varied field conditions, enabling precise speed adjustments without stopping. However, the complexity of the power shift system may require additional maintenance awareness compared to traditional gear-driven systems, particularly in high-duty cycles.
