Engine And Cooling Package

Engines on the MF WR 9800 Series windrowers can deliver up to 225hp at 2100rpm, while power boosting as high as 240hp at 1900rpm. This means that if you begin to pull down on the engine in heavy crops or challenging terrain for example, the power boost will engage to give the torque and horsepower to keep going in the field. Purposeful engineering and advanced emission controls will also provide you with consistently lower total fuel consumption.

Fuel Efficiency

With some of the best fuel efficiency in the industry and a 585 litre fuel tank, the MF WR Series allows you to operate all day without refuelling. Our exclusive Fuel Economy Meter allows you to make adjustments to fuel usage along the way. For example, you could run at 28km/h (17.5mph), but optimal fuel savings might be at 20km/h (12.5mph).

Cooling Package

All radiator and cooling units are arranged in a V-shape so air flows unrestricted to each component.

Cool, fresh air is drawn through the radiators without bringing warm air in from one radiator to the other.
 

Reversible Fan

The hydraulically driven fan runs at variable speeds, allowing it to adjust the airflow to match the machine’s cooling needs. This system operates automatically through the windrower software without the need for operator intervention.

When high volumes of air are not required for cooling, the fan can run at a lower rpm to conserve horsepower and increase fuel economy. The fan also auto-reverses to automatically clean the radiators and fan screen of any debris as you work, activating every 15 minutes. If the fan needs to reverse more frequently due to debris accumulation, it does so automatically.

Cab

Creature comforts have been maximised in the MF WR 9800 Series in response to what hay producers have told us they need to increase efficiency and reduce fatigue.

Extra sound deadening material has been added to the cab, along with a thicker floor mat and headliner, to create a quieter operating environment. The new steering column has been integrated to give operators a higher range of steering wheel placement adjustments.

Operating the Massey Ferguson header is straightforward, with our innovative hydraulic drive system and multi-function level which has three set functions and up to 16 programmable functions that can be specific to your operation.

Steering Control

Another Massey Ferguson exclusive, the responsive, electro-hydraulic steering system is the ultimate in precision control. Now you can drive at faster speeds – up to 40kph* (24.5mph) when equipped with RearSteer™ – with enhanced stability. You can adjust the steering wheel response and resistance to your personal preferences.

Suspension

With average pressure settings from 1.4 to 1.6 bar our optional cab suspension system provides a ride similar to that of a tractor cab – a real plus when you are operating on tight turns, borders or undulating, rutted conditions.

Technology

FieldMax™ controls key functions on a single terminal.

Auto-Guide™ 3000 guidance gives accurate steering at speeds up to 27k/mh (17.5mph).

GlideRider™ rear suspension reduces bounce and increases operator comfort.
 

RearSteer™ improves road transport whether towing or not.

FieldMax™ Monitor

configuration icon, so you can view and/or change handle settings with a single button, plus engine information, fuel economy meter and hectare counter.

As the dashboard is icon-based, even new users can quickly navigate their way round it, getting the best out of the Massey Ferguson windrower from day one.

You’ll always be in touch with header rpm, header motor pressure, flotation pressure, working height and position on one user-friendly display.

The Fuel Economy Monitor shows the hectares per litre covered, allowing the operator to make adjustments to prioritise fuel economy versus their operating speed.

 Auto-Guide™ 3000

All MF windrowers are pre-wired to accept Auto-Guide™ 3000 guidance.

The guidance signal is converted into a steering signal that operates the drive pumps giving a high degree of steering accuracy.

This fully integrated Plug & Play system can be used at field speeds of to 27kph (17.5mph) and works on borders, pivots and contours.

Auto-Guide™ 3000 can be displayed through the FieldMax™ Monitor for those who need a simple and integrated guidance terminal, rather than through a separate screen, this allows increased visibility for the driver. The optional C3000 terminal, available via AGCO Parts, offers advanced capabilities and allows you to achieve even more. It’s the ideal solution for anyone wanting to keep a constant record of job and tasks.

GlideRider™

With two gas shocks and a spring in the centre of the axle, our GlideRider™ adjustment-free rear axle suspension transfers load onto the main frame, so bounce is reduced and comfort is increased, even at higher field speeds.

The system offers an optimal amount of travel while still being strong enough to handle ruts and headlands without compromising structural integrity.

 RearSteer™

RearSteer™ offers an unrivalled level of steering comfort and stability, allowing the MF windrower to behave like a combine driving down the road, but can be disengaged to perform as a normal windrower in the field.

The RearSteer™ option allows the MF WR 9800 to pull an MF 5300 DynaSwath™ draper header equipped with a slow speed transport kit up to a recommended transport speed of 34kph (20mph). When not towing or transporting with a header mounted, the MF WR can travel up to 39kph* (24.5mph) with RearSteer™ engaged.

RearSteer™ uses two fully active steering cylinders, one on each wheel. When rear steer is engaged, the steering cylinders respond directly to operator steering input to steer the machine. When RearSteer™ is engaged, the front wheels are locked 1:1 for equal power distribution, making it easier to climb ditches, or power through soft spots.
 

Headers

Massey Ferguson offer a range of high performance headers to suit your operation. All built in house in the Hesston factory, these headers allow high output whether that be swathing crops like cereals and oil seed rape, or cutting and condition crops like grass and Alfalfa.

MF 5300 Series DynaSwath™

The MF 5300 DynaSwath™ is a new Draper header from the ground up built for tough crop conditions such as oilseed rape and heavy green forage.

The MF 5300 DynaSwath™ header boasts a new dual knife design that can withstand heavier loads complemented by Smart Head Technology with its own electronic control unit to communicate efficiently with the MF windrower, giving automatic control of reel speed.

A new hydraulic system with single point header hook-up and drives for all major functions, makes attaching and detaching the header significantly quicker and easier.

The reel features the largest diameter tube in the industry for strength and reliability plus a new cam track design for more efficient crop feeding, while durable tines withstand crop bend without breaking.

The exclusive reel design features truss rod support on the 10.7m (35ft) and 12.2m (40ft) models to minimise reel deflection, while providing the ability to handle adverse crop conditions.

The solid one-piece reel minimises crop wrapping by eliminating the snag points of a two-piece reel.

MF Headers to suit your workload and field sizes can be specified from 6.1m (20ft) to 12.2m (40ft).

MF 9100 Series Rotary Disc Header

The MF 9100 Series is the next evolution built from this successful heritage utilising many ‘industry first’ features such as a turbulence-reduction helper roll, hydraulic header drive, hydraulic roll tension, steel-on-steel conditioners, and the double conditioning TwinMax™ system.

The RazorBar™ name comes from the extremely thin, low profile design of the cutterbar, which uses heavy-duty spur gears with tooth to tooth drive contact at all times to help provide smooth power transfer, and power the cutterbar through tough conditions. Handle heavier loads with confidence.

Infinitely variable disc speed from 1000-2500 rpm can be set to match any crop conditions. Dual hydraulic motors drive the cutterbed from each end to provide even torque load across the entire width of the cutterbar for increased reliability.

The exclusive TwinMax™ advanced conditioning system double crimps the stems, reducing drying time while allowing the leaves to stay healthy and whole, retaining their vital nutrients. The result is a higher quality crop.

MF 9100 Series Sickle Header

The MF 9100 Series sickle header provides a smooth, clean cut at more traditional operating speeds under 16km/h (10mph). Available in 4.23, 4.83 and 5.44m (14ft, 16ft and 18ft) widths, the MF 9126 features dual augers, along with a double sickle and a single pair of rubber-on-steel or steel-on-steel conditioner rolls.

The MF 9146 model, available in 4.23 and 4.83m (14ft and 16ft) cutting widths, features the exclusive TwinMax™ Advanced Conditioning System.

All models feature hydraulic drive, hydraulic header flotation and hydraulic roll tension for easy adjustment and reliability.
