The Massey Ferguson 1080 -1155 tractors

A Brief History:


 

The DX 1000 line, the big ones:

In 1969 a new model was introduced the MF-1080. It was derived from the MF-180. The MF-1080 was powered bye a Perkins 5209ccm diesel engine producing 81 PTO horse power (95 at the crank case). It was replaced with the MF-1085 in 1973. Next step in the DX 1000 line was MF-1100 and MF-1130, both were completely new designs. They were produced from 1965 onwards. the MF-1100 had a six-cylinder Perkins engine of 5807ccm producing 110 hp at the crank. The MF-1130 had the same engine with a turbo charger, producing around 130 hp. They were replaced in 1973 bye the MF-1105 and MF-1135. (se below). V-8 power, from 1970 the MF-1150 with a Perkins V8 engine of 8365ccm producing around 146 hp at the crank. It was replaced in 1973 by the new MF-1155. The latest version of this tractor (1105, 1135 & 1155) adopted the style of the new MF-200 series. Unlike the 100 series the 1000 tractors adopted radial hydraulics pumps.

 
   
   
           
           

The big ones:  The MF-1180, -1100, 1130 and 1150  produced from 1965 onwards. (the 1080 from 1969, the 1150 from 1970.)

The MF-1080 & -1085*

The MF-1080 was first produced in 1969 (in France). It had a four cylinder Perkins  A4.318 engine. It was based on the American built MF-180.  The MF-1080 was in production till 1974 (Thanks to Johan Storgårds for the information)

The MF-1085 replaced the MF-1080 in 1973. Built on the platform of the US MF295.**  This incorporated a new design more like the MF-500 series which was to follow in a few years. 

The MF-1080 and -1085 was available with either a standard or adjustable wide front axle.

Great picture of Dusan Kuster's really nice 1080. THANKS

     
Note: BIG picture        

*) the MF-1085 was sold on different markets as the MF-595 or -285 (the 285 without cab). The MF-1085 was an updated MF-1080  produced from 1973 on the Canadian plant mainly for the North American market, it looks similar to the newer 500 range.

  Further development from the MF-1100-1105 was the MF-1104. 1114 and 1134. A MF-1114 from 1978 in the picture at the left. It had a Perkins A.6354.4 diesel engine with 110hp. and was in production from 1978-1981. Looking much like the MF 595.

If you have more information about these models, please send me an e-mail.

Additional Information from Chris, Canada:

This tractor look like more a Landini 12500  4x4 mf didn't built 4x4 until the beginning of 1980 here in Canada. All the MF 4x4 was a Landini the difference was only the stickers, colours  and price. For the same tractor the Landini was cheaper, 5000$ to 10000$ for the same thing, I am not sure 100% But for me a least 95%

Salute Chris.
