The Massey Ferguson 8900 Series

is a range of high-specification

Telescopic Handlers that features

a unique combination of comfort,

compact size, controllability,

performance and productivity.

Stand out from the crowd with

precise control and power

Whether you’re a livestock or arable farmer,

in today’s working environment

you need reliable, productive machinery.

MF 8900 Series Telehandlers are built to work

hard all day, keeping you comfortable and

always in control.

For loading, transportation and easy handling

on the farm, the MF 8900 Series is an

excellent choice if you’re looking for extra

manoeuvrability.

Our telescopic handlers are a unique range of

four high specification machines that feature

an unmatched combination of compact size,

control, performance and productivity.

Exceptional comfort, control and productivity

The highest quality and

output of work is always

maintained with an

MF 8900 Series Telehandler,

thanks to the comfortable

operator environment.

Comfort and output

The spacious, flat-floor cab has been designed

to optimise day-long output. Both the seat

and the steering column are fully adjustable,

to ensure that every operator can achieve an

ideal driving position. For added operator

comfort and safety an optional pneumatic

suspension seat offers a full range of

adjustment to match the weight of the driver.

A large area of hi-visibility glass all round,

combined with the low, angled boom

location, ensures a good view. Even when the

boom is raised, its geometry ensures that

visibility through the right hand side window

is virtually unrestricted.

Added safety

The overload indicator gives a clear audible

and visual warning if load/reach limits are

approached.

If safe operation is not re-established by the

operator, then the system will automatically

limit boom movement, avoiding any possibility

of dangerous practice.

The dash-mounted

overload indicator is

clearly legible in all

lighting conditions

On the 89410L models with

hydraulic frame levelling, an in-cab

inclinometer indicates chassis-

horizontality to aid safe operation

The pneumatic suspension seat is fully adjustable

to suit the weight of the driver

To maximise productivity on hot days, air

conditioning is among the options that can

be specified.

The driver’s window opens fully to give extra

visibility and all MF 8900 Series Telehandlers

comply with EU noise regulations.

Top-of-the-range features as

standard

•

Complies with all current ROPS and FOPS

legislation

•

Large mirrors, seat belt, rotating beacon,

heater/demister, storage area behind seat

•

Large adjustable sun visor

•

Visual stability indicator with

audible alarm

The MF range of Telehandlers has a load-

holding capability so no need to equip all of

your implements with individual load-holding

valves.

It also features a standard pressure relief

valve to make coupling and uncoupling of

attachments a whole lot easier.

MF Telehandlers deliver high capacity to full

height, at which point excellent reach is

still achieved.

Outstanding boom control

The multi-function joystick gives full

proportional adjustment of all services from a

single lever, giving easy, precise boom control.

Excellent boom and attachment carriage

visibility means a fast hook-up and straight

into work.The angled position of the boom

gives a good 'digging depth' even with the

boom fully retracted.

A hydraulic line to the front of the boom to

operate hydraulic implements or hydraulic

implement locking is fitted as standard.

The automatic parallel action of the boom

ensures fast cycle times and is particularly

useful for precise pallet and bale stacking.

Simple, precise control

The range of MF Telehandlers are

renowned for their simplicity.You won’t

find an easier telehandler on the market to

operate. All cab controls are within easy

reach and are simple to use.

Simply advanced features

Our designers have made the features of the

telescopic arm easy for you to control through

a simple, multi-function joystick for the boom

and attachments and a finger-tip lever for

speed range and directional control

Above: Coupling and uncoupling of hydraulic

attachments is quick and simple

Infinitely variable gear ratios

The hydrostatic transmission gives smooth,

continuously variable speed control... simply,

at the touch of a lever and completely

automatically within the two forward and two

reverse speed ranges. Ratio changes can take

place on the move and under full load, so

there is never any loss of power or traction,

and maximum productivity is achieved at

all times.

The advanced hydrostatic transmission has

two response modes giving either precise

control when accuracy is needed, or fast

response when handling bulk materials.

Safety is also enhanced, as there is full engine

braking, giving safer operation on hillsides and

when towing trailers on the road.

Chassis levelling

For stability, safety and accurate load

placement at high lift heights, the MF 89410 is

available with an optional hydraulic chassis

levelling system. An inclinometer located in

the cab provides visual confirmation that the

chassis is horizontal on sloping terrain.

The high lift capacity of the MF 8900’s hydraulic

boom arm with a versatile range of attachments

Above: Double-acting rear hydraulic outlets and a

hydraulic trailer braking facility may be specified to

accompany the optional hydraulic hitch

Hitches

In addition to the standard clevis hitch, an

optional hydraulic hitch is available for fast

trailer hook-up and improved transport

cycle times.

Robust all-terrain underside

All MF 8900 Telehandlers feature a full, steel

‘belly-plate’ to provide drive-line protection in

rough terrain and avoid crop wrapping around

exposed shafts.

The inching pedal (above): initial movement of the

brake pedal enables slow, controlled movement -

even at full engine speed

Unique 'Fast/Slow' response

mode

At the flick of a switch, operation of the

hydrostatic pump can be set to either fast or

slow response. In 'fast' response, the hydraulic

pump reacts quickly to throttle changes; ideal

for working in silage clamps or 'cycling'

operations, such as grain hauling or loading,

where the machine reaches maximum

capacity quickly. In 'slow' response, pump flow

increases more slowly and smoothly, so it is

ideal for more delicate jobs such as

pallet handling.

Inching pedal - total control

By pressing the inching pedal/brake pedal

through a few degrees of travel the operator

can gently and accurately control movement

of the handler at any engine speed, whilst

maintaining maximum pump output to the

boom. Further movement of the inching pedal

then operates the disc brakes, so heavy loads

can be lifted whilst the handler is stationary

or moving very slowly.

Centre: The bellypan of the

monocoque chassis is perfectly flat

for use over rugged terrain

without causing damage to the

drive components.

With four models to choose

from, there is bound to be an

MF 8900 Series Telehandler

to meet your needs exactly.

From the astonishing performance of the

compact MF 8925 to the huge reach of the

MF 89410, each model has individual

characteristics, but also a single high standard

of design and build quality.

All models are based on a modern,

monocoque chassis design, giving great

advantages in terms of strength, serviceability

and productivity, and as each model uses an

advanced hydrostatic transmission,

controllability and safety are unsurpassed.

Power is delivered smoothly and reliably by

the highly successful Perkins 1000 series

range of 4-cylinder turbocharged diesel

engines. So power, torque and economy are

second to none.

And when your livelihood is in agriculture, it's

reassuring to know that the MF 8900 Series

is supported by the comprehensive

Massey Ferguson dealer and parts network.

‘Go-anywhere’ Power with strength and durability

Right: Powerful Perkins engine

provides plenty of power and

hydraulic capacity; access is

excellent too!

Designed to meet modern

farming needs, MF 8900
