Massey Ferguson 3060

Last Updated: July 2024

Overview

The Massey Ferguson 3060 is a robust row-crop tractor powered by a 69.7 hp Perkins A4.248 liquid-cooled diesel engine with a rated speed of 2200 RPM. It features a 32-speed fully synchronized transmission with power shift and SpeedShift capabilities. The engine produces a maximum torque of 200.6 lb-ft at 1288 RPM with a 20.7% torque rise. At rated speed, it consumes 4.42 gal/hr of fuel with an efficiency of 0.446 lb/hp.hr. The tractor is available in 2WD and 4WD configurations with operating weights of 8420 lbs and 8985 lbs, respectively. It achieves a maximum drawbar power of 55.5 hp at 6.66 mph with a 3125 lbs pull, and a fuel efficiency of 12.79 Hp.hr/gal at this power level. The hydraulic system can exert a maximum force of 5530 lbs with a pump delivery rate of 13.6 GPM at minimum pressure and 12.4 GPM at 2540 psi. The tractor features power steering, a three-point hitch (Category II), and an open-center hydraulic system.
