Massey Ferguson 825 Combine Parts

825 parts and accessories

The Massey Ferguson 825 combine harvester, a workhorse on farms from the late 1970s through the 1980s, offered reliable performance for grain harvesting. Typically powered by a diesel engine around 105 HP, these combines were equipped with conventional threshing systems. Farmers appreciated the 825 for its simple design, ease of maintenance, and ability to efficiently harvest a variety of crops when equipped with header widths ranging from 13 to 18 feet.

The Massey Ferguson 825 combine was a popular model produced by Massey Ferguson during the late 1970s and the 1980s. The exact years of production vary. It was generally powered by a Perkins 6.247 naturally aspirated diesel engine rated around 105 horsepower with a displacement of 247 cubic inches (4.0 liters). The 825 utilized a conventional threshing system with a cylinder width of approximately 47 inches. Grain tank capacity was around 100 bushels. The unloading auger was capable of unloading at a rate of roughly 25-30 bushels per minute. Available header widths ranged from 13 to 18 feet, allowing for adaptation to different field sizes and crop types. While specific chopper/spreader options varied, most 825 models were equipped with a straw chopper to manage residue. Cab features were basic but provided protection from the elements. The MF 825 was well-suited for harvesting wheat, soybeans, and other small grains, providing a cost-effective solution for smaller to medium-sized farms.

Maintenance Tips

Concave Adjustment: Regularly check and adjust concave clearance according to the crop being harvested to optimize threshing performance and minimize grain damage.
Belt and Chain Tension: Inspect all belts and chains for proper tension and wear. Loose belts or chains can lead to inefficiencies and premature failure. Adjust or replace as needed.
Sieve and Chaffer Cleaning: Clean the sieves and chaffers frequently to prevent buildup of debris, which can reduce cleaning efficiency and increase grain loss.
Bearing Greasing: Regularly grease all bearings according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Proper lubrication is essential for extending bearing life and preventing costly repairs.
