The Massey Ferguson 271 was part of the popular 200 series, produced between 1987 and 1991. This tractor was designed to provide a balance of power and affordability for medium-sized farms. It featured a Perkins 4.236 diesel engine, a naturally aspirated, inline four-cylinder engine with a displacement of 236 cubic inches (3.9L). This engine delivered approximately 62 horsepower. The transmission was typically an 8-speed manual gear transmission, offering a range of speeds for various field operations. The PTO delivered around 55 horsepower at 540 RPM. The hydraulic system had a capacity of around 8.5 GPM powering two remote valves, and the 3-point hitch was a Category II, capable of lifting approximately 3200 lbs. Common applications included row crop cultivation, hay baling, and livestock feeding. What distinguished the MF 271 from other models in the lineup was its ideal combination of power and size, making it suitable for farms needing more than a compact tractor but not requiring the heft of larger machines.
