Massey Ferguson 8460

Last Updated: July 2024

Overview

The Massey Ferguson 8460 is a 4WD row-crop tractor from the 8400 series, manufactured by AGCO in Beauvais, France from 2004 to 2007. The MF 8460 features a Sisu Diesel 7.4-liter six-cylinder turbocharged and intercooled diesel engine with a power output of 235 hp at 2200 rpm. The tractor is available with two transmission types: the DynaStep transmission offering 21 forward and 18 reverse gears and the Dyna-VT transmission with an infinite number of gears in both forward and reverse directions. The ingenuity of the MF 8460 allows it to handle a variety of tasks with ease, owing to its hydrostatic power steering, hefty operating weight, and hydraulic wet disc brakes. The comfort of the operator is also prioritized, with a cab featuring optional pneumatic suspension, enhancing the efficiency and productivity in the field. With a lift capacity of 14,300 lbs and options for PTO speed adjustments, this machine can accommodate a broad range of implements and attachments for diverse agricultural operations.
