A New Era for Straightforward and Dependable Tractors From Massey Ferguson

We began the Massey Ferguson® 8S Series project with a blank page. At the heart of it was the global “Voice of the Customer” study: an in-depth, one-to-one interview with customers and operators in several countries across the globe.

Key feedback from you, the customer, underlined the need for comfort, ease of use, value for money, excellent reliability, intuitive and convenient controls, efficiency transmitting maximum power to the ground, 100% connectivity, and the ability to work with the most demanding implements.

It was an exciting and inspirational project for all those involved and an opportunity to build on Massey Ferguson’s strong heritage of straightforward, dependable machines.

The result: a Massey Ferguson tractor for a new era. The MF 8S Series.

Features may include:

ENGINE POWER MANAGEMENT - 20 HP BOOST
  • These tractors have the considerable benefit of Engine Power Management (EPM), which gives the capability of up to a 20 hp-plus power boost, plus extra torque, whenever that bit extra is needed.
MF 8S ENGINES
  • The AGCO Power™ 6-cylinder, 7.4-liter engine is compliant with Tier 4 Final emissions and delivers more power, torque and performance at low rpm, reducing operating costs.
ALL-IN-ONE STAGE V ENGINES
  • These comply with strict Stage V emission regulations using Massey Ferguson’s award-winning "All-in-One" system, which includes a straightforward soot catalyst.
SUSPENDED FRONT AXLE
  • The tractors retain the well-proven standard suspended front axle. Offering a tight 18.7-foot turning radius. Now equipped with suspension lock, it also is equipped with brakes for tractors fitted with all 31-mph transmissions.
NEO-RETRO DESIGN
  • The striking "neo-retro" design pays tribute to the brand’s heritage, illustrated by a new interpretation of the iconic MF gray saber stripe on the side and horse head collar motif on the hood, which dates back to the MF 100 Series.
CONTROL CENTER ARMREST
  • The Control Center armrest fitted with the latest easy-to-use MultiPad lever provides complete fingertip control. This ISOBUS-compatible lever operates all the tractor functions and includes an integral micro-joystick to control two spool valves.
PROTECT-U DESIGN
  • The distinctive Protect-U design completely insulates the cab from noise, heat and vibrations. With noise levels of just 68db, it is one of the quietest in the market and, with an interior volume of 3.4m³, it is also one of the most spacious.
WHEELBASE
  • MF 8S Series tractors are built on a 10-foot wheelbase that provides stability and improves traction when working with wide, demanding implements, offering up to nearly 10% more traction power.
PTO
  • All models come with variable speed PTO as standard. Operators can select the right speed for power or economy.
LINKAGE CAPACITY
  • Three-point linkage capacity is increased by 7% to 22,000 lbs and, with powerful new hydraulics, these tractors handle and operate large, wider implements.
MF SECTION CONTROL
  • With the fully automatic Section Control for ISOBUS implements, operators can apply seeds, fertilizer or crop protection products without overlapping. This prevents double treatment and areas worked outside of the field edges.
MF TASKDOC
  • The MF TaskDoc system has a real place in the future of agriculture, helping farmers to become more productive through the knowledge brought by putting precision-measured data at the business owner’s fingertips.
