Massey Ferguson 830 Combine Parts

830 parts and accessories

The Massey Ferguson 830 combine, produced in the late 1970s and early 1980s, was a popular choice for farmers seeking a reliable and versatile machine. Typically powered by a diesel engine in the 130-150 HP range, the MF 830 offered header widths up to 20 feet, making it suitable for medium to large-sized farms. Its conventional threshing system provided a good balance of grain quality and throughput, contributing to its widespread adoption.

The Massey Ferguson 830 combine was introduced to the market in the late 1970s and was manufactured through the early 1980s. Powering the MF 830 was typically a Perkins 6.354 diesel engine, producing approximately 130-150 horsepower, with a displacement around 354 cubic inches (5.8 liters). The 830 utilized a conventional threshing system with a cylinder and concave. The grain tank capacity typically held around 135 bushels. The unloading auger could unload at a rate of approximately 25 bushels per minute. Available header widths ranged from 13 to 20 feet, allowing for adaptability to various field conditions. Optional equipment included a straw chopper or spreader. The cab offered basic operator comfort with features such as a seat and simple controls. The Massey Ferguson 830 excelled in harvesting various crops, including wheat, soybeans, and corn, providing a reliable and cost-effective solution for farmers.

Maintenance Tips

  • Concave Adjustment: Regularly inspect and adjust the concave clearance to ensure proper threshing and minimize grain damage. Refer to the operator's manual for specific recommendations based on the crop being harvested.
  • Belt and Chain Tension: Check and maintain proper tension on all drive belts and chains. Loose belts and chains can lead to slippage, reduced performance, and premature wear.
  • Sieve and Chaffer Cleaning: Regularly clean the sieves and chaffer to remove debris and prevent plugging. This ensures efficient grain cleaning and reduces grain loss.
  • Bearing Greasing: Grease all lubrication points on the combine, including bearings, according to the recommended maintenance schedule. Proper lubrication is essential for preventing premature wear and extending the life of components.
