Massey ferguson 4610 review part 1

[@1harrymac]

I had a 4610 with a 260 fel and I was very disappointed with it.. a/c was useless 4 wheel drive was almost impossible to engage disengage and as you mentioned cab was loud and small. On the positive side it pulled my massey 1745 round baler and 1359 disc cutter with ease. I also have a fella 3 pt hitch 9 ft cut and it worked well with it also. I traded it off for a 5611 and I am extremely pleased with it. Cain equip had a 5612 at sun belt expo in 2015 that I spoke to him about but it was sold at the expo. Enjoy your channel very much. I am in northern part of South Carolina.

hey man thank you. I agree at times the 4wd is hard to get out an you have to back up to get the pressure off it. Are A/c has been good as long as I keep the coolers blowed out. But I will say this it doesn't have the feel that were used to with our other masseys. Its just a tractor they built to compete with Kubota an other light tractors. The 5600 series is in a whole different league now its a tractor. Its more like what we normally buy. I got some stuff coming on my 5400 you will like.

I'm looking at the engine department and it's been more than 50 years since I ran a back hoe and never a tractor. But the compartment looks dirty. I took my van to a commercial detailer some years ago and watched him start to detail the vehicle. First he opened the hood and sprayed the entire engine compartment with some kind of foam - on a warm engine. After 15 minutes he took a sprayer hose and rinsed it off. What a shock; it looked as though it had just come off the showroom floor. "What about the electronics?" The foam was designed for electronics including the battery and cables. When you live in Ohio, salt is the only deicer they use - forget a mix with sand! So keeping the engine compartment clean means no corrosion! Do you do something similar for your tractors to manage the cooling?

John Gritman I've used degreasers sometimes but mostly we just pressure wash them it was very dirty here we had been putting hay out with it in the rain

[@johngritman4840]

Thanks for the response. I'm no farmer though I did marry the farmer's daughter 47 years ago!

[@BagwellFarms]

John Gritman haha well that's a good start getting the wife to understand the work load is half the battle! An no problem if you have anymore questions just let me know I'll do my best to answer them.

[@johngritman4840]

Thanks, I'll keep watching. I'm also learning from my son in law but his tractor has 450 hp and a 53' trailer. LOL

How much would the replacement door be for that tractor? Is it like John Deere meaning expensive replacement parts just because of the name?

[@longviewfarm226]

[@BagwellFarms]

I bought a new 4610lp. In dealership 6 times for repairs before 1st oil change. Now returned to dealer. Purchased jd. No comparison between the 2. Major difference between power and performance.

[@danielclark8206]

I have three 4610. Two cab overs and one platform. Use them in Fl. seven days a week during mowing season, pulling 15ft LandPride batwings. Changed out one battery. No other problems. Started with a 175 and 165. Still have both and use them in small areas
