Led lights turn night into day
The LED 360° lighting set includes 20 ultra-bright LED work lights, which provide a clear view all around the tractor, including the work area and any implements.
Front Axle Suspension
Improved comfort and safety for transport applications and greater traction is delivered by a new and innovative front suspension.
PTO
Up to four-speed PTO with a choice of 540, 540ECO, 1,000 or 1,000ECO, which means operators can always select the right speed for power or economy.
Load-Sensing Hydraulic System
MF 8S Xtra comes as standard with 150 l/min Closed Centre Load Sensing hydraulics with the option of 205 l/min and 205 l/min ECO offering the highest flow at low engine revs to save fuel.
Optional Hydraulic Systems
A 205 litre/min flow is an option, which can also be supplied as an ECO version, generating the flow at 1,650rpm (230l/min at max at rated engine speed). Up to five electronic rear spool valves can be specified.
Linkage Capacity
With a three-point linkage capacity with 10,000kg and with powerful hydraulics, these tractors handle and operate large, wider implements.
Front Linkage Option
A new 4,800kg capacity front linkage option, fully integrated into the tractor, comes with the option of an ISOBUS socket.
Wheelbase
The MF 8S Xtra Series tractors are built on a 3.05m wheelbase that provides stability and improves traction when working with wide, demanding implements, offering up to nearly 10% more traction power.
TIGHT TURNING CIRCLE
The curved design of the chassis and bonnet ensures one of the best turning circles on the market: 5.7 m*. (*Track 1950mm with 600/70R30 front tyres)
SPEEDSTEER
Reduces operator effort and provides faster turns - maximising your time in the cab. It enables the operator to adjust the steering ratio and select the number of turns of the steering wheel required for a given amount of steering angle turns.
2.05m rear tyres
Optional rear tyres delivering greater traction, reduced soil compaction, and improved performance in the field
Central tyre inflation system
The Central Tyre Inflation System option quickly adjusts pressures to the optimum settings to help increase traction and reduce compaction.
Adjust the tyre pressure to suit
The Central Tyre Inflation System is proven to reduce fuel consumption by 10% to 15%, as well as cut compaction by providing up to a 150% larger footprint. At the same time it can increase traction and reduce unnecessary tyre wear.
MF Guide
MF Guide is MF’s full featured, hands free steering system, available on new tractors or as an after-market installation. It is capable of delivering sub-metre, decimetre and centimetre accuracy, increasing the efficiency of your farming.
MF Section Control
