MASSEY FERGUSON 2860E ENGINE

The Massey Ferguson 2860E is equipped with a reliable Iseki 2.4L 4-cylinder diesel engine, offering durability and efficient power for various agricultural tasks. Its 14-gallon (53.0L) fuel tank provides extended operating time, reducing downtime for refueling on larger projects. However, the relatively small tank size in comparison to larger models may require more frequent stops in expansive fields or heavy-duty applications.

TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW

The Massey Ferguson 2860E features an 8-speed mechanical shuttle hydrostatic transmission, offering smooth transitions between forward and reverse while enhancing operator control in tight spaces. This transmission design provides excellent torque management, essential for tasks requiring high precision, such as tilling or loading. However, the mechanical shuttle may have a steeper learning curve for operators accustomed to fully automatic systems.

Description 8-speed mechanical shuttle hydrostatic

TRANSMISSION 1

The Massey Ferguson 2860E features a mechanical shuttle transmission, providing precise control for forward and reverse shifting, which enhances maneuverability during tasks such as loader operations. Its 8 forward and reverse gears enable operators to select optimal speeds based on varying soil conditions and workloads, improving efficiency. However, the mechanical shuttle system may require more physical effort compared to hydrostatic systems, potentially challenging operators in rapid directional changes.

Type mechanical shuttle
Gears 8 forward and reverse

TRANSMISSION 2

The Massey Ferguson 2860E tractor features a hydrostatic transmission providing infinite speed control within its 3-range forward and reverse, allowing for precise maneuverability during operations. This setup enhances ease of use, particularly for tasks requiring constant adjustments, such as loading or grading. However, the hydrostatic system may offer lower torque compared to traditional gear-driven systems, impacting performance under heavy loads.

Gears infinite (3-range) forward and reverse

MECHANICAL

The Massey Ferguson 2860E features a robust 4x4 MFWD system, enhancing traction on various terrains, which is beneficial for diverse agricultural tasks. The power steering improves maneuverability, while the 8-speed mechanical shuttle hydrostatic transmission allows for smooth, seamless direction changes and speed adjustments. However, the two-post folding ROPS design may limit operator protection in rollover scenarios, necessitating careful operation in hilly or uneven landscapes.
