Introduction
Massey Ferguson 3505 Row-Crop Tractor
The Massey Ferguson 3505 is a row-crop tractor manufactured in France between 1983 and 1987. Designed for mid-range agricultural operations, this machine offers a balance of mechanical durability and operational comfort, serving as a reliable utility tractor for diverse field tasks.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by a 6-cylinder Perkins diesel engine with a displacement of 5.8 liters (354 cubic inches). It utilizes a liquid-cooling system and a dual-element air cleaner to maintain performance under load. Operating at a rated speed of 2400 RPM, the engine produces 110 hp (82.0 kW), providing consistent torque for heavy-duty traction and implement operation.
Transmission and Drivetrain
The 3505 features a partial power shift transmission offering 16 forward and 12 reverse gears. The system incorporates four gears across two ranges, complemented by a two-speed push-button power shift and a manual shuttle. This configuration allows for synchronized shifting within ranges, facilitating efficient speed adjustments during field operations. It is available in both two-wheel and four-wheel drive configurations.
Hydraulics and Hitch
The hydraulic system is an open-center design with a total flow capacity of 29.5 gpm (111.7 lpm). It supports two or three rear valves for implement control. The rear Category II hitch provides a lift capacity of 7,611 lbs (3,452 kg) measured at 24 inches behind the hitch point, allowing for the handling of substantial mounted implements.
Operator Environment and Dimensions
The tractor comes standard with an air-conditioned cab, designed to enhance operator comfort during extended work periods. Steering is managed via a hydrostatic power system, and braking is handled by hydraulic wet disc brakes integrated with the differential. The machine has a wheelbase of 107 inches (271 cm) and an operating weight of 12,935 lbs (5,867 kg), with adjustable rear tread widths ranging from 60 to 98 inches to accommodate different row spacings.
Conclusion
The Massey Ferguson 3505 is a versatile row-crop tractor suited for varied farming environments. Its combination of a robust Perkins power plant, a 16-speed transmission, and a high-capacity hydraulic system makes it a dependable choice for farmers requiring a machine capable of both draft work and precise implement management.
