Massey Ferguson 2230

Last Updated: June 2024

Overview

The Massey Ferguson 2230 is a compact utility tractor that was manufactured between 1999 and 2001. It features a 73 hp (54.4 kW) Perkins 1004-42 diesel engine, a two-speed power shift transmission with 30 forward and reverse gears, and a liquid cooling system. With a wheelbase of 84.8 inches and an overall length of 158.3 inches, the tractor is characterized by its 4x4 MFWD 4WD chassis for all-wheel drive performance and power steering for easy maneuverability. The tractor comes with standard agricultural tires, with the front being 360/70R20 and the rear 420/70R30. Designed for a range of utility tasks, the tractor has multiple configurations including the choice of a ROPS or a cab operator station, each affecting its operational weight. The 2230 is equipped with a Category II three-point hitch and an open center hydraulic system but lacks details on PTO speeds and hitch lift capacity. As a workhorse of the late 90s, this tractor represents the Massey Ferguson commitment to durability and versatile functionality in the compact tractor segment.
