Last Updated: July 2024

Overview

The Massey Ferguson 8150 is a row-crop tractor produced between 1995 and 1998. It features a 4x2 2WD chassis, power steering, and a four-speed power shift transmission with 32 forward and reverse gears. The turbocharged diesel engine, manufactured by Valmet (model 620DS), has 6 liquid-cooled cylinders with a displacement of 403 cubic inches. Based on independent test results from the Nebraska Tractor Test Laboratory, the engine's maximum power output is 160.5 hp at 2200 rpm, with a fuel consumption of 10.13 Gal/hr (38.36 l/h) and a fuel efficiency of 0.449 lb/hp.hr (0.273 kg/kW.h). The standard power take-off speed is 161.9 hp at 2091 rpm. The maximum torque is 503 lb.-ft. (682 Nm) at 1302 rpm, with a torque rise of 31.5%. The hydraulic system can exert a maximum force of 11,935 lbs (53.1 kN), with a pump delivery rate of 26.9 GPM (102 l/min) at minimum pressure and rated engine speed, providing 28.8 hp (21.5 kW) of hydraulic power at 2350 psi (162 bar). The overall dimensions are 215 inches long, 94 inches wide, and 115 inches tall, with an operating weight of 16,270 lbs for the 2WD version. The tractor is equipped with a category 3 rear hitch, a cab operator station, an electric starter, and a closed center load-sensing hydraulic system.
