ENGINE DETAIL
The Massey Ferguson 360, equipped with a Perkins AT3.152.4 turbocharged diesel engine, offers a compact yet powerful 57 hp output, making it suitable for moderate agricultural tasks. The 15.5:1 compression ratio enhances fuel efficiency, while the 149 lb-ft torque at 1500 RPM provides excellent pulling power for implements like plows or trailers. However, its limited displacement (2.5L) might pose challenges in heavy-duty applications or prolonged operational cycles, thus assessing workload expectations is crucial.

TRANSMISSION 1
The Massey Ferguson 360 tractor features an 8-forward and 2-reverse gear transmission, which provides operators efficient speed control and maneuverability for various agricultural tasks. The availability of multiple forward gears allows for optimized power delivery and adaptability across different terrains and conditions. However, the limited 2-reverse gears may present challenges in tight spaces or when navigating obstacles during field operations.
| Type | gear |
| Gears | 8 forward and 2 reverse |
TRANSMISSION 2
The Massey Ferguson 360 tractor features a mechanical shuttle transmission, allowing for smooth gear shifting between forward and reverse without clutch engagement, which enhances operational efficiency in tight maneuvers. With six forward and reverse gears, it provides versatility in speed and power management, making it suitable for various agricultural tasks. However, operators may encounter challenges in rapid speed adjustments compared to hydraulic shuttle systems, particularly in demanding conditions.
| Type | mechanical shuttle |
| Gears | 6 forward and reverse |
TRANSMISSION 3
The Massey Ferguson 360 features a synchromesh transmission, which provides smoother gear shifts, thereby enhancing the operator's control and reducing wear on the drivetrain. With 12 forward and 4 reverse gears, this tractor offers versatility for various farming operations, from plowing to towing. However, the complexity of the synchromesh system may lead to higher maintenance requirements compared to simpler transmissions.
| Type | synchromesh |
| Gears | 12 forward and 4 reverse |
MECHANICAL
The Massey Ferguson 360 tractor features a versatile 4x2 2WD or 4x4 MFWD configuration, allowing for improved traction and adaptability across various terrains. The planetary final drives enhance durability and gear load management, while the wet disc brakes provide consistent stopping power, even in wet conditions, making it suitable for intensive agricultural use. However, the absence of a fully enclosed cab may limit operator comfort in harsh weather, so consider this if you work in diverse climates.

MASSEY FERGUSON 360 TIRES
The Massey Ferguson 360 tractor's tire specifications indicate a robust design for both 2WD and 4WD configurations, enhancing traction and stability on varied terrains. The standard agricultural front tires (6.00-16 for 2WD and 8.30-24 for 4WD) combined with 13.6-28 rear tires provide effective weight distribution and improved load-carrying capacity, ideal for farming tasks. However, the choice between 2WD and 4WD may affect maneuverability in challenging conditions, with 4WD offering superior traction in muddy or uneven fields, though it can result in increased fuel consumption and maintenance needs.
