Engine specifications, transmission and fuel efficiency
The MF 1035 DI is built for longevity and low operating costs under demanding field conditions.
Key mechanical specifications:
- Engine horsepower: 36 HP to 39 HP category, powered by a Simpson 3-cylinder, 2400 cc direct-injection diesel engine.
- Torque performance: Delivers high engine torque at low RPM, ensuring steady drawbar pulling without stalling in heavy soil.
- Gearbox options: Sliding mesh or partial constant mesh transmission with 8 forward and 2 reverse gears, providing optimal tilling speeds.
- Fuel efficiency: Renowned for low diesel consumption during light tilling, stationary thresher operations, and trolley haulage.
- Clutch choices: Available with single dry clutch or dual clutch for uninterrupted PTO implement operation.
Ferguson hydraulic system and implement pairing
The tractor's hydraulic system is renowned for precision draft control during tillage:
Hydraulics and compatible implements:
- Hydraulic lift capacity: Approximately 1100 kg lifting capacity with automatic draft and position control (ADDC).
- Ferguson draft sensing: Automatically adjusts lower linkage height as soil resistance changes, maintaining uniform ploughing depth and saving fuel.
- Rotavator compatibility: Operates 5-foot rotary tillers efficiently for single-pass seedbed preparation in dry and semi-wet soils.
- Cultivators and ploughs: Easily pulls 9-tyne cultivators, disc harrows, and 2-bottom mouldboard ploughs.
- Haulage capacity: Handles single-axle tipping trailers carrying farm produce, sugarcane, or construction materials.
