MECHANICAL

The Massey Ferguson 690T tractor features a robust 4x2 2WD or 4x4 MFWD drivetrain, suitable for various terrain conditions, but the choice of 2WD could limit traction in heavy, wet soils. Its outboard planetary final drives enhance durability and improve maintenance accessibility, while the mechanical rear differential lock provides enhanced traction in challenging conditions, though it may require driver engagement for optimal performance. The hydraulic wet disc brakes and power steering ensure reliable stopping power and ease of maneuverability, making it ideal for agricultural tasks where precision is essential, complemented by the option for air-conditioning in the standard cab for operator comfort.
