Introduction

McCormick MTX125: Row-Crop Tractor

The McCormick MTX125 is a row-crop tractor produced by McCormick International in Doncaster, England, between 2000 and 2003. Designed for varied agricultural tasks, it combines a robust chassis with a high-torque engine to support demanding field operations.

Engine Performance

The tractor is powered by a Perkins 1006-60T turbocharged diesel engine. This 6.0-liter, 6-cylinder liquid-cooled unit produces 130 hp (96.9 kW) at a rated speed of 2200 RPM. It delivers a maximum torque of 380.6 lb-ft (516.1 Nm) at 1400 RPM, providing consistent pulling power for heavy implements.

Transmission and Drivetrain

The MTX125 features a four-speed power shift transmission with four ranges, offering 16 forward and 12 reverse gears. An optional creeper transmission configuration is available, extending the range to 32 forward and 24 reverse gears for low-speed precision work. The system utilizes an electro-hydraulic wet disc clutch for efficient gear transitions. The tractor is configured with four-wheel drive and includes an electro-hydraulic rear differential lock for improved traction.

Hydraulics and Hitch

Equipped with a pressure flow compensating hydraulic system, the tractor provides a total pump flow of 28.8 gpm (109.0 lpm), with 25.1 gpm (95.0 lpm) dedicated to the selective control valves (SCV). The rear hitch is a category II type featuring electronic lower link draft sensing, offering a lift capacity of 8201 lbs (3719 kg) at 24 inches behind the hitch point.

Operator Environment and Dimensions

The machine comes standard with an air-conditioned cab designed for operator comfort during extended field shifts. It utilizes power steering and hydraulic wet disc brakes for control. The tractor has a wheelbase of 106.3 inches (270 cm) and an overall width of 90.6 inches (230 cm), supported by 14.9R28 front and 18.4R38 rear agricultural tires.

Conclusion

The McCormick MTX125 is a versatile row-crop tractor suitable for mid-to-large scale farming operations. Its combination of a high-torque engine, flexible transmission options, and substantial hydraulic capacity makes it a reliable asset for both heavy tillage and precision field work.
