TRANSMISSION 1
The Massey Ferguson 2800 features a Multi-Power transmission with a 3-speed power shift, providing operators with enhanced flexibility and improved control over 24 forward and 6 reverse gears, making it ideal for varying field conditions. Its oil capacity of 152 quarts (143.9L) supports extended operation times but requires diligent maintenance to ensure optimal performance. This transmission setup allows for seamless power transitions, which is advantageous in tasks requiring rapid speed adjustment or load management, though it may present a learning curve for inexperienced operators.
| Transmission | Multi-Power |
| Type | 3-speed power shift |
| Gears | 24 forward and 6 reverse |
| Oil capacity | 152qts / 143.9L |
| Description | Eight forward gears with three power shift speeds in each gear. |
TRANSMISSION 2
The Massey Ferguson 2800 tractor features a mechanical shuttle transmission, allowing seamless direction changes without clutch engagement, enhancing operational efficiency in varied tasks. With 8 forward and 6 reverse gears, it provides versatility in speed adjustments for different agricultural applications, though the counting of gears may limit precise speed control compared to hydrostatic systems. This configuration is ideal for medium-duty tasks like tilling or hauling, where reliable torque and maneuverability are pivotal.
