Last Updated: July 2024

Overview

The Massey Ferguson 8650 is a powerful and versatile 4WD row-crop tractor produced by Massey Ferguson from 2009 to 2013. It features a 513 cubic inch, six-cylinder Sisu Diesel T00767 engine with turbocharged intercooled induction and SCR technology, rated at 240 horsepower at 2200 RPM. The engine delivers a maximum torque of 811 lb-ft (1100 Nm) at 1400 rpm, with a torque rise of 59.9% and power increase of 13.9% at 1850 rpm. The advanced continuously variable transmission (CVT) provides infinite forward and reverse gears for precise speed control. This model includes a cab with heat and air-conditioning, a three-point hitch with lift capacities up to 26,460 lbs on the rear and 11,020 lbs on the optional front PTO, and a hydraulic system with a pump delivery rate of 51.0 GPM at minimum pressure. The emission control system utilizes AGCO's e3 SCR or an optional EGR system.
