Massey Ferguson 665 Combine Parts

665 parts and accessories

The Massey Ferguson 665 combine, a reliable workhorse manufactured in the late 1970s and early 1980s, offered a practical solution for grain harvesting. With engine horsepower ranging around 105-115 HP and header widths up to 20 feet, this conventional separator combine quickly gained popularity with farmers for its straightforward design and efficient grain processing. Its affordability and ease of maintenance made it a staple in many operations.

The Massey Ferguson 665 combine harvester was a popular model produced from approximately 1978 to the mid-1980s. It was designed as a mid-sized machine suitable for a variety of farming operations. Typically, the 665 was equipped with a Perkins 6.247 diesel engine, delivering around 115 horsepower, with a displacement of 247 cubic inches. This provided ample power for its harvesting capabilities. The threshing system featured a conventional cylinder and concave design known for its efficient separation of grain from the crop material. Grain tank capacity was approximately 135 bushels, with an unloading auger capable of discharging grain at a rate of around 30-40 bushels per minute. Header widths ranged from 13 to 20 feet, allowing for versatility in different field conditions. Options included a straw chopper or spreader to manage crop residue. The cab offered basic controls and visibility, focusing on functionality rather than luxury. The Massey Ferguson 665 excelled in harvesting wheat, soybeans, and corn, making it a versatile machine for diverse cropping systems.

Maintenance Tips

  • Concave Adjustment: Regularly check and adjust the concave clearance to ensure optimal threshing performance and minimize grain loss. Refer to the operator's manual for recommended settings based on the crop being harvested.
  • Belt and Chain Tension: Inspect belt and chain tension throughout the combine regularly. Loose belts and chains can cause slippage, reduced efficiency, and premature wear. Adjust tensioners as needed to maintain proper operation.
  • Sieve and Chaffer Cleaning: Clean the sieves and chaffer frequently to remove debris and prevent plugging. This ensures proper air flow and effective separation of grain from chaff.
  • Bearing Greasing: Grease all bearings according to the lubrication schedule in the operator's manual. Proper greasing prevents bearing failure and extends the lifespan of critical components.
