Massey Ferguson 174S
The Massey Ferguson 174S is a versatile utility tractor built for tough farm work. It has four-wheel drive, which helps it move easily on different types of ground. The tractor is powered by a Perkins A4.236 diesel engine with four cylinders. This engine is liquid-cooled and naturally aspirated, meaning it doesn't use a turbocharger. The engine size is above average compared to other tractors, which gives it good power for its class. This tractor has a partially synchronized transmission with 12 forward gears and 4 reverse gears. This gives the driver many options for different speeds and tasks. The Massey Ferguson 174S has a three-point hitch at the back, which can be used to attach various farm tools. It also has an open center hydraulic system, which is good for operating those tools. The tractor weighs 4,995 pounds, which is about average for its size. It measures 135.6 inches long, 52.4 inches wide, and 54.1 inches tall. The open operator station means the driver sits in an area without a cab, which some farmers prefer for better visibility and easier access.
