Farmers appreciated its robust construction and advanced features, contributing to its popularity in row crop and tillage applications.
The Massey Ferguson 8470 was introduced in 2004 as part of the 8400 series, designed to offer increased power and advanced technology. Production continued through 2007. At its heart is a Sisu Diesel engine, a 7.4L 6-cylinder turbocharged and intercooled diesel engine delivering approximately 270 horsepower. The engine's high torque output provided excellent pulling power in the field. This model features a powershift transmission, providing smooth and efficient gear changes on the go. The independent PTO delivers approximately 225 horsepower at 1000 RPM, accommodating a wide range of implements. Its closed-center hydraulic system delivers around 42 GPM, powering multiple hydraulic remotes for efficient operation of implements like planters, cultivators, and large mowers. The three-point hitch is a Category III/IIIN, offering a lift capacity of approximately 12,787 lbs, capable of handling heavy implements. Common farming applications include row crop work, tillage, hay production, and livestock operations. The 8470 distinguished itself from other models in the lineup with its higher horsepower and heavier-duty components, making it suitable for larger farms and more demanding tasks.

Maintenance Tips
- Engine Oil & Filter: Change the engine oil and filter every 250-300 hours using high-quality oil that meets the manufacturer's specifications. Regularly inspect the oil level and condition.
- Hydraulic System: Inspect hydraulic fluid levels regularly and change the hydraulic filters every 500 hours. Use the recommended hydraulic fluid and check for leaks in hoses and fittings.
- Fuel System: Use clean, high-quality fuel and replace the fuel filters according to the manufacturer's recommendations (typically every 500 hours). Consider using a fuel additive to prevent fuel gelling in cold weather.
- Seasonal Storage: Before storing the tractor for the off-season, drain the fuel tank or add a fuel stabilizer. Disconnect the battery and store it in a cool, dry place. Grease all lubrication points and inspect for any potential issues that need addressing.
