New 32hp hydrostatic tractor boosts Massey Ferguson's 1500 Series range

By Mike Bird in Industry on 18th Jul 2011 11:00

Massey Ferguson has strengthened its position in the sub-50hp compact tractor sector with the introduction of the MF 1532 H, a completely new hydrostatic transmission model powered by a 32hp three-cylinder, water-cooled Diesel engine.

Set to make its debut at Saltex 2011, stand W15 the new MF 1532 H represents a significant addition to Massey Ferguson's well-established 1500 Series range, complementing the existing MF 1532 MA tractor to give agricultural, horticultural and grounds-care customers the choice of hydrostatic or mechanical transmission models at an important power point within the sub-50hp market.

Combining neat, compact dimensions, a high power-to-weight ratio and excellent manoeuvrability, the MF 1532 H is equally at home working around buildings, yards and trees as it is on cultivated soil and sports turf where minimal marking and low compaction are essential requirements. A foldable ROPS frame ensures that the tractor is able to access low buildings and work comfortably beneath trees.

Equipped with selectable four-wheel drive as standard, the new MF 1532 H replaces the MF 1531 H within Massey Ferguson's 1500 Series, providing customers with a higher specification tractor that incorporates a number of new and upgraded features.

These include an uprated hydraulic system with a maximum output of 45.7 litres/min (MF 1531 H : 39.4 litres/min), a strengthened front axle, a 35 litre capacity fuel tank (MF 1531 H : 30 litres), a larger area iso-mounted operator platform and a new heavy-duty hydrostatic transmission.

The tractor's smooth and economical power delivery, boosted hydraulic flow and three-range hydrostatic transmission with auto-throttle and cruise control have been designed to provide owners with the productivity, efficiency and versatility necessary to meet the wide-ranging demands of the agricultural, horticultural and grounds-care sectors.

Another Diesel Engine My Way - Garden Tractor Talk

Well, it's putting me in a cash squeeze, but I have bought another diesel engine. It's an 18hp Yanmar out of a JD Gator. Complete with starter, radiator, complete wiring harness, everything needed to run her. I've bought it for $300. I will pick it up within a couple weeks. I know the fella, as we've plowed twice at his place, and I know I can trust him. I've paid $130, with a balance of $170. Someone else was supposed to have bought it, but they couldn't afford, so I went ahead & took it. I truly should not have bought it, as I'm tight as can be, but heck, a complete package for just $300! Couldn't afford not to!
