Advanced Stage V engines power the
new Massey Ferguson MF 5700 M Series
MASSEY Ferguson, announced at
Agritechnica 2019, the introduction of the
new MF 5700 M Series, which includes five
models from 95hp to 135hp. All are powered
by the latest AGCO Power four-cylinder
engines, which meet the strictest Stage
V emissions regulations thanks to the
award-winning All-in-One system.
The five models will take over from the
existing MF 5700 and MF 6700. While still
retaining their reputation as a modern,
rugged and hardworking tractor the
replacements all now deliver an additional
5hp, apart for the MF 5709 M.
All models come with additional speci-
fication including a choice of the superbly
engineered 12 x 12 gearbox or renowned
Dyna-4 transmission. Specification is
further enhanced by options, such as brake
to neutral, Visio roof and cab suspension.
With their robust, straightforward design
and wide power range these new tractors
are versatile workhorses. As well as making
the perfect loader tractor combination,
they have the power and features to also
excel in the field with automated functions
easing the workload on operators and
increasing performance.
All the new MF 5700 M Series are
equipped with 4.4-litre, four-cylinder AGCO
Power engines. These comply with the
strict Stage V emissions regulations using
Massey Ferguson’s award-winning ‘All-in-
One’ system, which now includes a ‘soot
catalyst’.
Requiring only a simple occasional
‘regeneration’, the soot catalyst does not
require a separate diesel injection system
or extra fuel. The driver is in total control of
the process, choosing when to operate the
system using a switch in the cab.
This advanced system also does not
compromise engine operation, maintains
the superb fuel economy and remains
completely maintenance free, requiring no
regular servicing.
Thanks to its mounting position beneath
the cab, the All-In-One system helps to
maintain the tractor’s perfect visibility.
Massey Ferguson offers the Dyna-4
transmission as standard on the MF 5709 M
model and it is offered as an option on the
MF 5710 M and MF 5711 M.
Brake to neutral and AutoDrive are
also output enhancing options
available for Dyna-4 tractors.
Brake to neutral automatically
disengages drive when the
brakes are applied, while
Autodrive offers automatic
shifting in two modes (Power/
Eco mode).
Dyna-4 provides 16 forward and
16 reverse speeds, with four, change on the
move powershift speeds in four ranges,
which delivers class-leading, simple and
convenient control. A left-hand Power
Control Lever or T-lever on the right-hand
console make operation simple and easy.
Brake to neutral is now also an option
on the synchronised 12 x 12 mechanical
gearbox. Developed specifically by
Massey Ferguson for this tractor series,
this modern, robust gearbox offers
car-like smooth shifting with hydraulic
assistance.
All MF 5700 M tractors are equipped
with a sector-leading, high quality cab,
offering excellent visibility through wide
glass doors and curved quarter windows.
The optional Visio roof
further improves vision for
loader operations.
An ergonomically designed
layout ensures ease of use with
straightforward operation from
features seldom found in this tractor sector.
With its modern design, the MF 5700 M
provides high levels of control and automa-
tion with electro-hydraulic activation of the
diff-locks and four-wheel drive.
On Dyna-4 models, further comfort
comes from the cab suspension option,
which greatly increases operator
well-being during long working days. The
mechanical system uses two silent block
bushes to support the cab at the front and
spring-assisted shock absorbers on the rear
corners.
New headlights set in the bonnet and a
new grill provide a facelift for the MF 5700 M
Series, bringing them closer to the attractive
family style of higher specification.
Tanco Autowrap will have their range
of bale wrappers, handling and
feeding equipment at LAMMA 2020
DISPLAYED on Tancos stand
will be the ne Q-Series
linkage mounted square
& round bale wrapper of
which a limited number will
be available in the UK for
2020. The Q-Series features
200mm longer rollers to accom-
modate longer bales than the 1540-EH,
telescopic cut & start, proportional hydrau-
lics, a more compact chassis, direct gear
drive of the satellite arms, fully automatic
(auto load, auto start, auto bale level & auto
unload), Expert 2 controller and will be
available with either 2 or 3 wrap arms.
The very popular 1540-EH linkage or
loader mounted square and round bale
wrapper will also feature on Tanco’s stand
in Hall 19. This machine has been proven
over many seasons to be very versatile,
efficient, reliable & robust and is in use
across the UK on all bale sizes.
The high output 1400-V trailed round
bale satellite wrapper, which will also be
on display, is designed and built on the
speed, reliability, ease of operation and
high output experienced by
operators of the 1400-EH. The
patented split table of the
1400, which was designed to
allow simultaneous wrapped
bale unloading and next
bale reloading, is retained
on the 1400-V, and enhanced
with the addition of auto-loading.
The 1400-V shares innovative features
such as Tancos ultra reliable telescopic cut
& starts, direct gear drive to the satellite
arms and a variable proportional hydraulic
system with the S and the Q series linkage/
loader wrappers which Tanco will also have
on display at LAMMA 2020.
The A-100EH trailed turntable round bale
wrapper, which shares with the 1400-V the
same innovative chassis concept of having
the axle at the rear of the machine allowing
transfer of weight to the tractor making the
wrapper very stable on hills and combined
with large 31x15.5-15 tyres as standard, the
ability to travel very well on wet ground.
Other features of the A-100EH shared with
the 1400-V are autoload and the capability
to unload on the move.
