Above: Double-acting rear hydraulic outlets and a
hydraulic trailer braking facility may be specified to
accompany the optional hydraulic hitch
Hitches
In addition to the standard clevis hitch, an
optional hydraulic hitch is available for fast
trailer hook-up and improved transport
cycle times.
Robust all-terrain underside
All MF 8900 Telehandlers feature a full, steel
‘belly-plate’ to provide drive-line protection in
rough terrain and avoid crop wrapping around
exposed shafts.
The inching pedal (above): initial movement of the
brake pedal enables slow, controlled movement -
even at full engine speed
Unique 'Fast/Slow' response
mode
At the flick of a switch, operation of the
hydrostatic pump can be set to either fast or
slow response. In 'fast' response, the hydraulic
pump reacts quickly to throttle changes; ideal
for working in silage clamps or 'cycling'
operations, such as grain hauling or loading,
where the machine reaches maximum
capacity quickly. In 'slow' response, pump flow
increases more slowly and smoothly, so it is
ideal for more delicate jobs such as
pallet handling.
Inching pedal - total control
By pressing the inching pedal/brake pedal
through a few degrees of travel the operator
can gently and accurately control movement
of the handler at any engine speed, whilst
maintaining maximum pump output to the
boom. Further movement of the inching pedal
then operates the disc brakes, so heavy loads
can be lifted whilst the handler is stationary
or moving very slowly.
Centre: The bellypan of the
monocoque chassis is perfectly flat
for use over rugged terrain
without causing damage to the
drive components.
With four models to choose
from, there is bound to be an
MF 8900 Series Telehandler
to meet your needs exactly.
From the astonishing performance of the
compact MF 8925 to the huge reach of the
MF 89410, each model has individual
characteristics, but also a single high standard
of design and build quality.
All models are based on a modern,
monocoque chassis design, giving great
advantages in terms of strength, serviceability
and productivity, and as each model uses an
advanced hydrostatic transmission,
controllability and safety are unsurpassed.
Power is delivered smoothly and reliably by
the highly successful Perkins 1000 series
range of 4-cylinder turbocharged diesel
engines. So power, torque and economy are
second to none.
And when your livelihood is in agriculture, it's
reassuring to know that the MF 8900 Series
is supported by the comprehensive
Massey Ferguson dealer and parts network.
‘Go-anywhere’ Power with strength and durability
Right: Powerful Perkins engine
provides plenty of power and
hydraulic capacity; access is
excellent too!
