MASSEY FERGUSON 2860M ENGINE

The Massey Ferguson 2860M, powered by a robust Iseki 2.4L 4-cylinder diesel engine, provides efficient fuel consumption and lower operational costs due to its moderate 14-gallon fuel capacity. Key advantages include enhanced torque and reliability for various agricultural tasks, making it suitable for small to medium-sized operations. However, users should consider the sizing implications; while compact, it may not perform as optimally for larger-scale farming scenarios requiring higher horsepower or capacity.

TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW

The Massey Ferguson 2860M features a 12-speed power shuttle hydrostatic transmission, providing seamless direction changes and efficient speed adjustment for enhanced maneuverability in various field conditions. This system offers the advantage of smooth operation, reducing operator fatigue during prolonged use, but may present challenges in maintenance complexity and repair costs. Ideal for tasks that require precision, such as loader work or row crop cultivation, this transmission significantly improves productivity in diverse agricultural applications.

TRANSMISSION 1

The Massey Ferguson 2860M features a power shuttle transmission, comprising 12 forward and reverse gears, allowing for smooth directional changes without clutch engagement. The four synchronized gears in three ranges enhance operational efficiency, particularly for tasks requiring frequent speed adjustments, such as tilling or transport. This setup provides excellent maneuverability and versatility, although operators may need time to adapt to the gear shifting for optimal performance.

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

TRANSMISSION 2

The Massey Ferguson 2860M hydrostatic tractor features an infinite gear system with three ranges for both forward and reverse operation, enhancing maneuverability and operator comfort. The infinite gear selection allows for smooth transitions in varying terrain and task requirements, ideal for diverse agricultural applications. However, the hydrostatic design may yield slightly lower efficiency compared to conventional gear transmissions under heavy loads.

Gears infinite (3-range) forward and reverse

MECHANICAL

The Massey Ferguson 2860M features a 4x4 MFWD (mechanical front-wheel drive) for enhanced traction in diverse terrains, making it suitable for agricultural and heavy-duty applications. Its wet disc brake system provides superior stopping power and durability compared to conventional brakes, while the 12-speed power shuttle hydrostatic transmission ensures smooth and efficient operation, particularly for tasks requiring frequent direction changes. Optional air-conditioning in the two-post folding ROPS cab enhances operator comfort during extended use, though the two-post design may limit overhead protection compared to fully enclosed cabs.
