Massey Ferguson 1840M & 2850M eHST Deluxe Cab Compact Tractor

[@flyboyslc1]

After researching compact tractors a lot, I decided to buy a 2860m from my local dealer. No buyer remorse at all! Your videos were a big part of my research. Getting 3rd function, loader, snow blade, 400 pounds of cast iron wheel weights, 2 rear remotes, engine block heater, standard cab, radio, hydro trans. Maybe a rear snow blower and grapple bucket too. Never have enough toys! Thanks Doug!

[@VahrenbergImplement]

AWESOME! Welcome to the Family and glad we could assist in helping making the best buying decision for you. Share some video of you getting to "Play in the Dirt" with your tractor we love seeing them in action!

i will be picking up my new 2860m cab very soon, thanks for all the vidios i learned alot

[@VahrenbergImplement]

Glad to we could help. That is an Awesome Model and Great choice.

The 1800M & 2800M Series are very nice and have been a great seller for us. Make a great Tractor to take care of livestock for sure.

[@mr2bah]

I’m trading in my Kubota L4701 for a new 2850M with the deluxe cab, next week it’ll be ready! Looking forward to see how it handles up here in Wisconsin

[@VahrenbergImplement]

Welcome to the Family! We been trading for several Kubota lately and moving up to Massey Ferguson. You'll have to share your experiences. Interesting to hear what customers like/dislike when they make a brand change.

[@AyatollahOfDahmsistan]

Very nice video. Thank you thank you thank you. On the 2850. Does it have a exterior three point Lever behind the tractor? When you’re back there hooking it up, you don’t have to use the lever in the cab?

[@VahrenbergImplement]

On the 2800M Series 3 Point Control is in the Cab. No external controls. But it's simple open the right door and it very handy location and can operate from the ground.

[@PatriceHervieux]

Thanks for the great videos of the 1800 and 2800 series. I used to own a MF1635 Hydro with a loader and a backhoe which I loved very much. I had it for 12 years (1600Hrs) and never had an issue with. Unfortunately I had to sell it as my work took me to an other country. I'm coming back home and I'm looking to buy a new MF compact tractor that is just slightly more capable than my 1635. So I'm wondering how the 1840M Hydro compares to my old 1635 has far as loader, backhoe and PTO horse power in general. May be I should go for the 2850, but that is a little bit more expensive. Thanks

[@VahrenbergImplement]

Depends on Capability Improvements your looking for. If it's Loader or 3 Point Lift Capacity 1835M/1840M are going to be the same. If it's PTO HP or Engine HP capabilities the 1840M will do more and the 2850M even more. Maybe you can share some of the items you want it to be able to do or increase in capabilities you want.

[@PatriceHervieux]

@@VahrenbergImplement Thanks for the reply. Lots of snow where I live, so PTO horsepower for a bigger snowblower is what I need I think - 2850M is probably the way to go for me. I like the Masseys a lot but my favorite thing about them is the hydraulic capability which surpasses the competition. No one else provide 12.6 GPM hydraulic output for implements.

[@richc9890]

I wish you would do a series on the lift capacity of each of the newer lines (1800M & 2800M series) loaders. Put on a set of forks and a pallet and show how much weight each can lift.

[@VahrenbergImplement]

That would be nice to do when we get some inventory and time for a project like that. I'll add that to the list. We did a similar thing with previous models and a 4' x 5' Round Bale with Unballasted tractors straight from the Assembly Centers: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rIOwnoyAl8aDrLc

[@mra4107]

Hello, I recently bought a 2850m with the backhoe. Overall, I'm very happy with the tractor, and your videos were a great help in my decision to purchase it over the competition. I am, however, having a fairly significant problem when trying to hook up 3-point implements. The subframe for the backhoe seems to always be in the way of the 3 point arms when they are attached to an implement. Specifically, I just hooked up my meteor snowblower, and the 3-point arms actually scrape the backhoe subframe as I drop the blower to the ground. I have played with the 3-point bottom link adjustments, but nothing seems to solve the problem. It almost seems like this is a design fault by MF. I'd be grateful for your expertise on how to solve this significant problem. Perhaps a video tutorial? I'm sure many folks would appreciate that so that they don't run into the same problem as me. Thanks in advance!

[@VahrenbergImplement]

What Category of Hitch is the Implements? 2850M is Cat 1 3-Point Hitch. Cat 1 Inner Span between arms is 28", Cat 2 inner span between hitch arms is 34". Here is more on the standardizations of 3-point Hitch Categories: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-point_hitch

Another awesome video Doug. Including the chart at 5:43 will help others in the future!...If you are looking for video ideas I can't find a video of attaching and removing the FL series loaders on the global series.

[@VahrenbergImplement]

That chart should help people understand how the DPF System and glad you liked it because we thought it would help understand what is happening too. The only different in the FL Loader on the 4700 than the 931X is the lock n go tabs - just pull out and turn a quarter to lock the tab then it's same as 931X. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fquXnHp5lsaBd6c

[@jacedison]

Hello, I been looking into Massey. I need some pointers. What models you can attach for a backhoe. I was looking into the 2607 tractor. But, the 4710 is nice too. I would want a backhoe with it. So many models like the 1800 2600 and etc. what is a good medium size tractor. Please explain trim levels and models I need help. E(enonemoy) H and M series. And 1800-on up. Do you get more if you keep goin up the 4000series?? Is there a 3000 series?? Please I need some info

[@VahrenbergImplement]

Subframe Mounted Backhoes are available on the GC Series, 1800E, 1800M, 2800E & 2800M Series Tractors. Above these series you can install 3 Poitn Mounted Backhoe Systems since the 3 Point is heavier and can handle the stress and weight. E Models are the Basic Featured Economical Models, M Series are the Mid-Spec more Features Models, S Series is the top of the line full feature models (Only available in the 5700S and above to the 8700S Series). Here is a vide we did that shows the Classification of Series of Tractors we offer from Massey Ferguson the 1700/2700 Series have been upgraded to 1800/2800 Series but still similar. kzbin.info/www/bejne/oKOwlGuci8R5mNE

[@djzog-z935]

First of all greetings from Greece :) It's too bad that these compact tractors can't be imported in eastern Europe (big tractors like 6700 and 8700 r very famous although)... You can find many premium compact tractors here, but i'm pretty sure Massey is at the top of the list. Outstanding presentation as always!

[@VahrenbergImplement]

Thanks for the comments. Not sure about Greece but looking at Massey Ferguson Website for some of the European Countries they show the 1700M listed. Might check out the Website for your country they may be available: masseyferguson.com/

There has been no announcement for an 1825M. There is a GC1725M and that is still current model and has not had any announcement of updating the GC Series.

[@flyboyslc1]

Doug, how does diesel filter regeneration affect tractor abilities during the regen? Why would there be a reason to push the button and delay regeneration? Does the auto regeneration take control of engine speed or something like that?

[@VahrenbergImplement]

Doesn't effect Tractor Performance in a Massey Ferguson. Delay Regen is for when Regen happens around Flammable Materials or when using in Enclosed Structures as higher volume of exhaust will be released and warmer temperature. Or you have a commitment that will limit the regen to be completed normally 30 to 45 minutes. Auto Regen all you have to do is move the throttle so the RPM are within the Orange Band on the Tach and it will take control. That's the best way to do it is just let the tractor do Auto-Regen. But the user still has control in certain situations.

[@faithmissionsministries6197]

Do you know if they are coming out with the new model 2850 E for 2021? I am interested in purchasing a 2075E But I recently found out that they will be now making 2850 E

[@VahrenbergImplement]

2705E was replaced by the 2750E for 2020 and now the new 2850E with ISEKI Engine are coming for 2021.

[@gregalmeda9090]

How is the turn radius between the two? I have some tight spots on my property.

[@VahrenbergImplement]

I have not done a test for that but both are very similar with the Bevel Pinion Style Front Axle and will turn very sharp and if you need more you can apply brakes to turn even shorter.

[@gregalmeda9090]

Vahrenberg Implement So if I am deciding between the two, they are both pretty similar? I assume 10 inches different in length wouldn’t make a big difference.

[@VahrenbergImplement]

Longer Wheel Base will be smoother ride. Sacrifice little turn radius but not very much inches not feet. Not that terribly much differences beside HP and bigger engine. Guess it depends on budget, and what you want to do with it.

[@hayak5647]

What is the top road speed on the 2850 or 2860? We use tractors for snow removal...

[@VahrenbergImplement]

Going to depend some on tire size and transmission. All 2850M & 2860M Hydro your looking in the 15.73 to 16.76 mph range. The 2860M Power Shuttle your looking at 18.42 to 18.84 with R1 Ag or R4 Industrial Tires.

[@mra4107]

Awesome video overview! I've seen on several forums and videos what seems to be a common failure on the 1700s where the rear axel frame snaps at the lower three point arm connection. Has the axel frame casting been beefed-up in the new 1800 series to solve the problem?

[@VahrenbergImplement]

I've never heard of an issue with 1700E or 1700M with Axle Frame & 3 Point. Just looked for AGCO Service Knowledge Object and there is no Service Documentation on that concern. If it was a concern there would be a Service Bulletin or Knowledge Object and there is none. This housing has been used for many generations. How in the heck are the using the tractor to damage that. Unless they not properly using it. Like too much slop in the stabilizers by not adjusting them. I would think with all the 1700 we have sold we would have heard of something but this a first to me.

Could you explain the differences between the 2850m, 2855m and 2860m with the power shuttle. Obviously hp is one. I don't see any videos on the 2855m and the Massey Ferguson website doesn't help much. Thanks for your videos

[@VahrenbergImplement]

In the Powershuttle model the 2850M and 2855M are the same size just difference in Engine HP (Price too). 2860M is larger rear end and more hydraulics in the powershuttle model, larger tires but the same cab and controls. If you watch the 2850M Video it will be the same for 2855M then compare to the 2860M. We show in the 2860M video the differences in Rear End Housings on that video.

[@eddielanger4748]

@@VahrenbergImplement ok. Thanks but don't understand why they build 2 tractors the same with only 5 hp difference

It's 10% more from 48.8 to 53.6 Engine HP. Look at other models 1835M to 1840M is 36.2 to 39.4 Engine HP (9%). GC1723E to GC1725M is 22.5 to 25 Engine HP (11%). Big thing is the 2855M get you in the 40 PTO HP for implements that need more PTO HP for them to be used.

Yes, But if you raise the Manual Throttle it sets the minimum for AutoThrottle. When using PTO implements you only have a little range that autothrottle helps keep you from stalling the hydrostat transmission.

Depends on how it's used. If low rpm use it will regen more often as increase soot is created in the engine. Normal use we are seeing 40 to 60 hours between regens. Best to warm engine before using lower rpm speeds does more natural regeneration and requires less regens.

I actually have Purchased 2 Pickups because they have DEF and DPF because they get better fuel economy. They are roughly double the fuel mileage of previous truck I had without DEF & DPF...even with the additional horsepower (To Create Horsepower you have to add more Fuel). DEF/DPF Systems remove other precombustion engine exhaust reduction components like EGR that reduce the efficiency of the engine and treat it post combustion. Your going to have emission systems either before or after the combustion.
