Massey Ferguson 491 Extra Battery Notes

Replacement note For the Massey Ferguson 491, match the replacement battery to the captured spec: 12 V, 600 CCA. Physical fit, terminal layout and hold-down fit still matter
Bad battery symptoms The most common bad battery symptoms for a Massey Ferguson 491 tractor include a slow or weak cranking engine, dim or flickering lights, and the battery warning light on the dashboard. These issues often point to a weak or failing battery that may need cleaning, charging, or replacement
Safe removal note Disconnect the negative cable first, then disconnect the positive cable. Install the new battery, connect the positive cable first, then reconnect the negative cable last. That reduces the chance of shorting a tool against the frame
Official information note

Mistakes do happen. Battery specs can change by year, engine, market, terminal layout and installed options. Check the old battery label, operator manual, parts book and official masseyferguson.com website before ordering a replacement battery.
