Survival in harsh conditions

AgroCentreZakharovo has held a demo show of the new Massey Ferguson 6713 tractor in Tyumen oblast. AGCO markets the model as a machine suitable for work in all climatic zones of Russia.

Massey Ferguson 6713 is a tractor of the mid-range segment with a capacity of up to 130 hp. The machine has medium dimensions: its body length is 4.3 m, its wheelbase — 2.5 m. Maximum steering angle of the front wheels is 55 degrees. The tractor has a good manoeuvrability and a tight turning radius. The road clearance of 40 cm ensures consistent stability and ease of steering.

‘The machine is designed to handle a complete range of farm tasks’, says Evgeniy Alikulov, Manager of Sales Department of AgroCentreZakharovo, ‘but it is also indispensable in the commanal service sector. The weight of the tractor is variable from 4.2 tonnes up to 5.3 tonnes, which facilitates setting the machine for the type of work on hand.

Maximum tractor speed is 40 km/h. The speed range important for field works is from 4 to 12 km/h and includes 6 gears thus making it possible to pull away with a loaded trailer.

‘At the demo show, the tractor was hitched to a Mix Max 14 mixer wagon and performed the task of mixing and distributing feed’, continues Evgeniy Alikulov. ‘The tractor coped with the task excellently demonstrating the rated power as well as efficient fuel consumption.

Buyers of the MF 6713 will enjoy the benefits of the AGCO Power™ 4.4L 4-cylinder engine, its unique cooling system and the most spacious cab developed in France.

‘The tractor is perfect for our farming enterprise’, shares his impressions Victor Mikrukh, Chief Engineer of Yasen-Agro, ‘the machine is suitable both for field operations such as sowing and tillage and for fodder distribution.’

Compact, manoeuvrable, perfectly suited for severe Russian climate conditions, the MF 6713 tractors whose development involved the best engineers of Massey Ferguson are now assembled at AGCO-RM factory in Golitsyno near Moscow. Thus, the end price of the farming machine is fixed making it more affordable for Russians.
