Massey Ferguson 1005 Tractor Parts

The Massey Ferguson 1005 was introduced in the late 1970s as part of the updated 1000 series tractors, continuing production into the early 1980s. It aimed to provide farmers with a powerful and dependable machine for various agricultural tasks.

This diesel engine provided the torque needed for demanding operations. The transmission was typically a multi-speed gear transmission, offering a range of speeds suitable for field work and transport, often featuring 8 forward and 2 reverse gears. The independent PTO delivered around 80 horsepower, available in both 540 RPM, allowing operation of various implements. Its hydraulic system provided a capacity of around 15 GPM, powering the rear remotes and the Category II 3-point hitch, offering a lift capacity of about 4500 lbs. The 1005 was commonly used for tasks such as hay production, row crop cultivation, and livestock operations. Compared to smaller models, the 1005 offered greater horsepower and hydraulic capacity, while larger models provided even more power and capability. The 1005 struck a balance, offering a powerful and versatile machine for mid-sized farming operations.
