Built with passion...

Cab comfort and driver-friendliness

Jeremy Platt, dairy farmer, Northwich, Cheshire, UK.

“My MF 6480 is a real workhorse, being used by my tractor driver for tasks such as ploughing and fertiliser application.

“He can be on this tractor for 10 hours a day, so comfort is vital. The cab is well laid out and everything is to hand,

while the Dyna-6 gearbox controls are similar to those used on the 5400s, so if someone else does have to jump on this

tractor it is no problem. The front axle suspension is also very good and adds to driver comfort.”

and on Dyna-6 transmission...

“Our two farms are seven miles apart and we do a fair amount of roadwork, so I speciﬁed the Autodrive version of

Dyna-6 which makes automatic gearshifts in transport mode. This is very useful as it takes out the gear changes and

makes driving on the road so much easier. I was surprised at how little it cost to add it to the speciﬁcation, too.”

Fuel economy

Clive Jones of Lower Pendre Farm, Llangorse, Brecon, Wales

“The MF 6470 is reliable and economical, with plenty of power. I’m very pleased – it uses a lot less diesel than I

expected and much less than a similar sized tractor of another make that I’ve tried.”

Running a powerful business with the MF 7400 Series

Alexander Kanny, agricultural and construction contractor, Bebelsheim in Saarland, Southwest Germany

Alexander Kanny runs a highly-successful agricultural and construction contracting business with a mega ﬂeet of

Massey Ferguson machinery, including an MF 7480.

“Amongst many applications, we mow approximately 1800-2200 ha year with a Krone BIG M mower, sow 500 ha

cereals with a power harrow/drill and front packer combination and produce up to 10,000 round bales a season, the

tractors are also worked long and hard on construction site jobs. We operate the machines nine to ﬁfteen hours a day,

Monday to Friday.”

On top of low fuel consumption across the MF ﬂeet, Alexander and his operators appreciate the manoeuvrability of

the MF 7480 and the Dyna-VT transmission working in conjunction with the high torque engine. “Dyna-VT is easy to

operate and engages the engine without high revs despite the heavy weight of the dumpers,” he says.
