TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW

The Massey Ferguson 2850M features a 12-speed power shuttle hydrostatic transmission, providing seamless directional changes and optimal torque management, enhancing maneuverability in tight spaces. This system allows for precise speed control, making it suitable for both transport and field operations. However, the complexity of hydrostatic systems may lead to higher maintenance demands compared to traditional gear options.

12-speed power shuttle hydrostatic

TRANSMISSION 1

The Massey Ferguson 2850M features a power shuttle transmission, providing seamless forward and reverse gear shifts which enhances maneuverability, especially in confined workspaces. With 12 forward and reverse gears across four synchronized gears in three ranges, operators can efficiently match tractor speed and torque to various field conditions. This setup is advantageous for tasks requiring precise speed adjustments, but may pose a learning curve for novice operators unfamiliar with synchronized gear systems.

Type	power shuttle
Gears	12 forward and reverse
Description	Four synchronized gears in three ranges with power shuttle.

TRANSMISSION 2

The Massey Ferguson 2850M features a hydrostatic transmission, allowing for smooth speed adjustments and enhanced maneuverability, which is ideal for precision tasks like loader work. Its infinite (3-range) forward and reverse gears provide flexibility across varied terrain and applications, reducing operator fatigue and improving efficiency. However, hydrostatic systems may incur a higher maintenance cost over time compared to traditional gear systems.
