The Massey Ferguson 8140 is a row-crop tractor manufactured in France between 1995 and 1998. Designed for heavy-duty agricultural operations, it combines significant power with a cabin architecture focused on operator comfort.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by a Valmet 620DS 6-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine. With a displacement of 6.6 liters, it delivers 161 horsepower at a rated engine speed of 2200 RPM. The engine utilizes a liquid-cooling system and a dual dry element air cleaner to maintain operational efficiency under field conditions.

The hydraulic system utilizes a closed-center load-sensing pump capable of delivering 29.1 gpm (110.1 lpm) at a pressure of 2931 psi. For implement management, the tractor features a Category III rear hitch with electronic draft control, capable of lifting up to 14,445 lbs (6,552 kg).
Operator Environment and Mechanical Features
Standard features include the QuietView cab, which is equipped with air conditioning to improve operator conditions during long work shifts. The tractor is available in both two-wheel and four-wheel drive configurations, utilizing power steering and hydraulic wet disc brakes for control and safety.
Conclusion
The Massey Ferguson 8140 is a robust, high-capacity tractor suitable for demanding field work. Its combination of a high-torque engine, versatile transmission, and efficient load-sensing hydraulics makes it a reliable asset for row-crop farming applications.
