Massey-Harris Pony 812

Last Updated: September 2024

Overview

The Massey-Harris Pony 812 is a small utility tractor that was made from 1951 to 1957. It's a 2-wheel drive tractor with a simple design, perfect for light farm work. The Pony 812 has a gasoline engine made by Simca, with four cylinders and 15.8 horsepower. This engine power is below average compared to other tractors, but it's enough for many small farm tasks.

The tractor is compact, measuring 104.3 inches long, 55.5 inches wide, and 61 inches tall. It weighs 1,653 pounds, which is on the lighter side for tractors. The Pony 812 has a gear transmission with three forward gears and one reverse gear. It also has an independent PTO (Power Take-Off) and uses mechanical band brakes. The tractor has an open operator station, which means there's no cab to protect the driver from the weather.

One interesting feature of the Pony 812 is its electric starter, which was not common on all tractors of its time. It has agricultural tires on both the front and rear, with the rear tires being larger at 24 inches in diameter. The tractor's small size and light weight make it easy to maneuver in tight spaces, which could be useful for small farms or gardens.
