Combine harvester "Massey Ferguson" 38
This model will ideally cope with both grain harvesting work and the collection of leguminous crops (rapeseed, soybeans, peas), tall crops (sunflower and corn), as well as seed crops. Serial production of the first basic MF 38 models started in 1990, after which over 9 years many improved analogues appeared.
Features of the Massey Ferguson 38 combine:
- use of a high-speed six-cylinder Valmet engine;
- equipped with a hydrostatic transmission;
- improved quality of grain harvesting with the high-tech Powerflex header;
- more thorough and gentle grinding system;
- improved High Flow crop separation process;
- computerization of control processes of the working bodies of the Datavision combine with a touch terminal;
- the possibility of not only automated data collection on the work process, but also their cartographic visualization both on the scale of the entire working area of the field and its individual sections.
This set of advantages allows for a more accurate cut, correct feeding of the crop being cut and, most importantly, the production of high-quality grain material. The latter is achieved thanks to an indirectly driven chopper drum, capable of generating high power even at low speeds and large portions of the incoming mass.
Characteristics of technical potential:
- Header width – 6.7 m;
- The width of the alternative header is up to 6.1 m;
- Fuel tank capacity – 400 l;
- Combine transmission type – hydraulic;
- Number of transmission gears – 3;
- The working capacity of the engine is 7400 cm3.
With these parameters, the diesel engine is capable of producing 240 hp, which is four times more than the previous model. Excellent labor productivity, a wide-cut header with a high-inertia chopper drum and an increased concave area make the combines of this model highly professional agricultural machines that ensure good harvest quality with minimal losses.
Features of the device and operation
- The tractor received a productive 8.4-liter engine, a Dyna-VT gearbox, a comfortable cabin with 360-degree visibility and other advantages, which should be enough to perform any tasks in agriculture, without experiencing discomfort during multi-shift operation. So, let us briefly highlight the following advantages of the model:
- Common rail engine with 370 horsepower
- Tier 4 exhaust pipe
- Upgraded Cyclair system for ventilation of engine components
- Updated interior air conditioning system
- Panoramic cabin, available in two versions – Efficient and Exclusive. The main features are 360-degree visibility, improved sound and heat insulation properties, a new control panel, armrest and multifunction joystick with a unified control system.
- Heavy-duty rear three-point hitch with 12,000 kg lifting capacity
- New front linkage with 5 ton lifting capacity
- Enlarged wheels for overcoming off-road obstacles
- New Dyna VT transmission with improved, smoother shift quality
- Modern AutoGuide software system, Agcommand telemetry system (provides monitoring and tracking of the condition of the tractor, its attachments, load level and other parameters
- The front linkage and PTO are integrated into the front of the tractor.
- The powerful engine has four valves per cylinder, is equipped with turbocharging, intercooler, electronic control, cooling system, pre-heater and fuel injection. These components play a supporting and, at the same time, decisive role for the safe and uninterrupted operation of the engine at any time of the year. As a result of numerous improvements, it was possible not only to reduce the volume of harmful emissions, but also to increase power and efficiency. For example, to improve environmental friendliness, the engine is equipped with jointly operating SCR and DOC systems, which, in combination with DEF I AdBlue, make it possible to eliminate the need to install an exhaust gas recirculation system.
- The Dyna-VT transmission provides fast and precise shifts thanks to the integrated components. Among them, we note the so-called “Supervisor”, which comes into action at high load of the internal combustion engine in order to reduce engine speed and thereby reduce fuel consumption. At the same time, the power of the unit will remain at a high level.
- The instrument panel, located in the operator's cabin, is an entire information complex with which you can monitor the status of various components and assemblies of the machine. The design of the dashboard is made in a modern design style - this applies not only to the design, but also to a clear graphic component in the form of icons that are displayed on the dashboard. Of course, the brightness of the panel can be adjusted to ensure good visibility and readability even in the dark. In addition to the instrument panel, there are many more interesting innovations in the cabin of the Massey Ferguson 8737 tractor. In keeping with modern trends, safety and comfort standards, the cabin provides a large range of functional systems. For example, the central touch display deserves special attention, on which you can display various parameters of the attachment. The display diagonal is 7 inches. In one of the most advanced modifications, the cabin is installed on a four-point OptiRide Plus suspension system. In addition to 360-degree visibility, heating and ventilation systems, you can “tailor” the workplace in the cabin to suit you - for example, adjust the driver’s seat in height, and adjust the steering column in terms of reach and tilt angle. As for the other part of the control panel, it is presented in the form of levers, buttons and switches located on the driver's seat armrest. The lever has a T-shape, which is very convenient and practical.
- The power take-off operates in several modes - within 500-1000 rpm. Modes can be changed depending on the load and weight of the cargo container. But in any case, it should be noted that the three-point rear and front linkage are designed for high load capacity - at least one of the highest in this towing category. This feature increases productivity and flexibility in the field.
- The off-road chassis of the Massey Ferguson 8737 tractor is represented by powerful wide-profile wheels with deep tread, which are designed to overcome any obstacles, including stones, water fords, muddy soils, ruts, deep snowdrifts and other obstacles. Moreover, high cross-country ability is facilitated by increased ground clearance, minimal body overhangs and high approach and departure angles. And a powerful steel sheet under the bottom protects the engine from all kinds of damage.

Massey Ferguson has introduced a completely new series of 8S tractors. The global presentation took place online at 15:15 Kyiv time.
Traktorist.ua writes about this.
The new series includes 4 models:
- MF 8S.205 (205 hp)
- MF 8S.225 (225 hp)
- MF 8S.245 (245 hp)
- MF 8S.265 (265 hp).
The AGCO Power 7.4 engine of the new range of tractors meets Stage V emission standards and provides maximum power at low speeds, reducing fuel consumption by 10%. Maximum torque is achieved at 1000 rpm and remains constant until 1500.
“Until 2021, new tractors will be produced with PowerShift Dyna7 and Dyna E-power transmissions with double grafting. In 2021, tractors with a continuously variable Dyna-VT transmission will also appear,” the material notes.
In addition, maximum traction with the soil is achieved thanks to a wheelbase of 3.05 m. The turning radius is 5.7 m. The new tractors use Trelleborg TM1000 tires.
The hydraulics have a power of 2.5 l/min and 5 spool valves. The lifting capacity of the rear linkage is 10 tons, which is 7% more than the previous line. The load capacity of the front linkage is 4.8 tons (+20% compared to the previous line).
The material indicates that the cabin received a new right armrest with a Datatronic 5 display, as well as a new display on the right pillar, and not in front of the steering wheel. For a better view of the driver, the windshield was tilted. Also new, the cabin has the highest sound insulation on the market. The noise level is 68 dB.
“We are absolutely confident that this tractor will fully meet the needs of customers for simple machines with a power of over 200 hp. Why are we sure of this? Because you and I began to carry out such development back in 2014. And you really helped us by taking part in the discussion, designing the tractors that you really need,” said the vice president and director of the Massey Ferguson brand, responsible for such regions like Europe and the Middle East by Thierry Lotte.
It took Massey Ferguson engineers about 1 million hours to develop the new series, of which 200 thousand hours went into testing and testing.
It is expected that the tractor will appear in Ukraine no earlier than 2021.

- Stanislav, Novosibirsk. Massey Ferguson 8737 is a powerful tractor, working on which you are not ashamed of the one who created it. Being in this car, you feel proud of someone else's auto industry. This device has the highest performance - which is worth the engine with a capacity of over 350 horsepower, as well as the high off-road potential of the wheeled chassis. The interior has all the necessary controls, including levers and switches, as well as a full-function color display showing important parameters. It's relatively quiet, comfortable and cozy inside, despite the obsessive rattling of the diesel engine. In general, you can talk in a low voice in the cabin. In addition, the cabin is quite spacious and there are no problems with visibility. Among the drawbacks of practicality, I note that the interior is too light, which quickly gets dirty. Well, I got this version, what can I do? In general, we have very few such machines, but they can replace several mini-tractors at once.
- Anton, Sverdlovsk. A decent unit for all occasions. You feel a dose of pleasure from driving the Massey Ferguson 8737 tractor, its advanced systems, working parts and units that can be additionally installed. The spacious and comfortable interior, closely spaced levers and switches - all this creates a feeling of comfort and cool ergonomics. Like all foreign cars, the 8737 tractor engine is also demanding on fuel quality, but at the same time it is very economical and environmentally friendly, despite its large power and displacement. Employees are generally satisfied with the machines, despite the high cost of maintenance. But in return you can get equipment of the highest level, which can replace several specialized machines at once. The tractor's shortcomings relate more to equipment than reliability. For example, attachments for this model are not only very expensive, but also in short supply.
