The MF 8600 Series is an award-winning, fuel-sipping powerhouse. The panoramic cab, combined with a 4-point cab suspension, provide an unrivaled work environment while AGCO's famous CVT transmission and up to 275 HP get your work done as efficiently as possible.
Similar to the 7400 Series in size and features, the 6400 Series comes standard with a Dyna-6 transmission - 6 powershift gears that allow the operator to shift electrohydraulically under full load within 4 ranges. 100 - 180 PTO hp with Tier III Perkins and Sisu engines.
The 5400 Special Application Series is based on Massey's popular utility series, but with design features perfect for vineyard and orchard applications. These features include a sleek cab with a filtration system that meets or exceeds ASAE S525.1.2 spraying regulations, keeping chemical vapors outside the cab where they belong.
Another specialty tractor available from Massey Ferguson is the 3400 Series. With a variety of widths, horsepower, and cab/platform options, they can work in and around many areas that other machines cannot. Available in 57 - 88 PTO hp with either 20x10 or 30x15 SynchroShuttle transmissions.
With 10 models to choose from, the 1500 Series suits the needs of any customer looking for a compact tractor. PTO HP ranges from 18.7 to 46.4 and available transmissions include standard gear shift, shuttle, and hydrostat. The availability of a cab, loader, backhoe, and a host of other implements make these incredibly versatile machines.
Based on the 500 Series, LP models include many features that decrease the overall height of the machine. These include a lower-folding ROPS, horizontal exhaust, and shorter wheel spindles. They are ideal for jobs that allow little headroom but require no drop in horsepower.
Ranging from 100hp to 155hp (PTO), the 7400 Series has Dyna-VT transmissions standard, Tier III emissions engines (Sisu or Perkins), and optional dual stage air ride cab suspension. The result is a line of tractors providing both power and comfort!
As either a cab or platform machine, the 5400 Series has a utility tractor to suit your needs. Hydraulics are available up to 4 valves and 29GPM flow for loaders and attachments, the Dyna-4 Powershuttle transmission allows for quicker mobility, and a choice of Perkins or Sisu engines gives you the power you need.
Ranging between 55 and 75 PTO HP, the Massey 3600 Series is a utility tractor with a smaller frame than its 5400 Series cousin. Power is provided by turbocharged SisuDiesel engines, and is transferred by either the standard 8x8 SynchroShuttle or optional 12x12 PowerShuttle transmissions.
As part of Massey's utility tractor offering, the 2600 Series is available from 32 - 54 PTO HP, with a Simpson diesel engine. Paired with the engine are a choice of transmissions (8x2 CenterShift standard or 8x8 SynchroShuttle optional), up to two hydraulic remotes and optional 4WD. Matched DL Series loaders are also available.
The Massey 1600 Series provides amazing versatility in a small package. Whether you need a small platform loader tractor, or a cab-tractor to run your snowblower, the 1600 series has an option for you. A variety of transmission options and Engine HP from 35.7 - 60.0 are available.
The 500 Series is a proven performer in the Massey Ferguson lineup. Current models range from 60 - 85 PTO HP with 4 cylinder Perkins engines (Tier II). Standard or Live PTO options, a choice of transmissions, and cab/platform layouts round out this series.
For customers that need a subcompact tractor, the Massey GC2300 Series offers many options not found on standard garden tractors. With 22.5 engine horsepower, and available as a Tractor/Loader/Backhoe (TLB) package, it is a digging machine that can get work in small areas that larger equipment cannot.
The Massey GC2600 Series gives a step-up in power compared to the other GC series, and also includes convenient standard options. One such option is a factory-installed joystick that gives precise loader control. Other features include a loader and backhoe that can each be removed in 3 easy steps.
The 9000 Series Massey Ferguson combines include two primary models, the 9690 and 9790, which are Class VI and Class VII machines (respectively). SisuDiesel engines provide up to 350 engine HP and have a capacity of 300 Bushels standard.
With a redesign and additional features, the 9005 Series Massey Combines are their new combine offering. Features include roomier cabs, faster unloading augers, fewer moving parts, and a 2 year header-to-spreader warranty.

The 8400 Series is Massey's current high-horsepower workhorse. With a Tier III SisuDiesel engine providing up to 240 PTO horsepower, and a Dyna-VT continuously variable transmission (CVT), they provide both power AND fuel economy.
Massey tractors win awards at EIMA 2008, held this month in Italy (Nov 12 - 16), including Tractor of the Year for the MF 8690.
Massey Ferguson recently launched their new 8690 at an Ag expo in Europe (and soon the rest of the 8600 Series) which will be the replacement for the current 8400 Series. For pictures and details, click through to our 8600 Series Page or watch the video below.

Massey Ferguson is a company that owes its heritage to three prominent men: Daniel Massey, Alanson Harris, and Harry Ferguson. Daniel Massey founded Newcastle Foundry and Machine Manufactory in 1847 which manufactured some of the world's first mechanical threshers. They later moved their headquarters to Toronto, changed their name to Massey Manufacturing Co. and became one of the leading equipment manufacturers in Canada.
Archrival to Massey was another thresher company founded by Alanson Harris in 1857. The two competitors merged in 1891 to form Massey-Harris and produced the world's first successful self-propelled combine in 1938.
Harry Ferguson was an engineer whose invention, "The Ferguson System" (3 point hitch), revolutionized the way tractors and implements interact; essentially making them a single unit when connected. He began producing tractors with his 3-point hitch in 1948.
Massey-Harris merged with Harry Ferguson in 1953, combining their threshing technology and tractor technology under one orgaization: Massey-Harris-Ferguson. This was shortened to Massey-Ferguson in 1958.
Massey Ferguson was bought by AGCO in 1995 which gave them even further reach internationally than they already had. To date there are more Massey Ferguson tractors worldwide than any other brand. Their current product offerings include tractors from 23 HP up to 240 HP, Class VI / VII / VIII combines, and all manner of implements. With an eye on quality and reliability, it is among the finest ag equipment on the market today.
Technology available on Massey tractors includes CVT transmissions (Dyna-Step and Dyna-VT), Auto-Guide satellite guidance and Tier III SisuDiesel engines. The 9895 Combine is a Class VIII machine with a 350 bushel capacity, 425 HP CAT C13 engine, and an unloading rate of 4.5 Bushels/sec. See our product pages for further details on these and other Massey Ferguson models.
