Massey Ferguson 6150 Row-Crop Tractor
Produced between 1995 and 1998, the Massey Ferguson 6150 is a row-crop tractor designed for mid-range agricultural operations. It integrates a 95 horsepower turbocharged engine within a robust chassis to handle diverse field tasks.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by a liquid-cooled Perkins 1004-4 four-cylinder diesel engine. With a displacement of 4.0 liters and a turbocharger, it delivers 95 horsepower at a rated engine speed of 2200 RPM. The engine cooling system has a capacity of 17 liters, and the air intake utilizes a dual dry element cleaner to ensure operational longevity in dusty environments.

Alternatively, the Dynashift transmission features four-speed power shift capabilities across four synchronized ranges, totaling 32 forward and reverse speeds. Both versions utilize a 230mm wet disc clutch and electro-hydraulic engagement to facilitate smooth gear transitions.

The machine features an open-center hydraulic system with a pump flow of 56.4 liters per minute and a system pressure of 202.1 bar. It supports between two and four valves for implement control. The rear hitch is a Category II type, equipped with electronic draft control, capable of lifting up to 5,425 kg at the link ends.
Operator Environment and Dimensions
The tractor is equipped with the QuietView cab, which includes air conditioning as standard to maintain operator comfort. Maneuverability is supported by power steering and hydraulic wet disc brakes. The machine is available in both two-wheel and four-wheel drive configurations, with weights of approximately 4,357 kg and 4,637 kg respectively, and a wheelbase of 254 cm.
