Massey Ferguson 282 Tractor Parts

The Massey Ferguson 282 was produced from 1986 to 1989, building on Massey Ferguson's reputation for durable and practical tractors. At its heart was a Perkins AD3.152 diesel engine, a 3-cylinder workhorse displacing 152 cubic inches and delivering approximately 59 horsepower. This provided ample power for a variety of tasks. The transmission was typically a manual gearbox, offering 8 forward and 2 reverse speeds. The PTO delivered around 52 horsepower, operating at the standard 540 RPM, making it suitable for operating mowers, balers, and other PTO-driven implements. The hydraulic system offered a capacity of around 7.8 gallons per minute, powering the Category II 3-point hitch with a lift capacity of approximately 2750 lbs. The MF 282 found use in row crop farming, hay production, and livestock operations. Its robust design and ease of maintenance made it a practical choice for farmers seeking a dependable and versatile tractor in the mid-size horsepower range. Its straightforward design and mechanical simplicity distinguished it from later, more technologically advanced models.
