Massey Ferguson 85 Horsepower FAQ
How much PTO horsepower does the Massey Ferguson 85 have?
The listed PTO output is 62.2 hp, close to the 65 hp benchmark average. Use 62.2 PTO hp as the practical implement-sizing number.
How much drawbar horsepower does the Massey Ferguson 85 have?
The listed drawbar output is 55.2 hp, close to the 55 hp benchmark average. It gives a realistic pulling-power figure of about 55.2 hp.
Is the Massey Ferguson 85 better judged by PTO hp or drawbar hp?
The drawbar output is about 88.8% of PTO output, comparing 55.2 drawbar hp with 62.2 PTO hp. That helps separate pulling ability from PTO implement ability.
How big is the Massey Ferguson 85 engine?
The engine displacement is 223 ci, below the 260 ci benchmark average. Smaller displacement usually means less engine size behind each horsepower number.
