Massey Ferguson 1085 Horsepower FAQ
How much PTO horsepower does the Massey Ferguson 1085 have?
The listed PTO output is 81 hp, above the 65 hp benchmark average. That is the number to use for mowers, balers, augers, pumps and other PTO tools that need up to about 81 hp.
How much drawbar horsepower does the Massey Ferguson 1085 have?
The listed drawbar output is 69.2 hp, above the 55 hp benchmark average. That makes the 69.2 hp drawbar number more useful than engine hp for tillage and heavy pulling.
Is the Massey Ferguson 1085 better judged by PTO hp or drawbar hp?
The drawbar output is about 85.4% of PTO output, comparing 69.2 drawbar hp with 81 PTO hp. That helps separate pulling ability from PTO implement ability.
How big is the Massey Ferguson 1085 engine?
The engine displacement is 318 ci, above the 260 ci benchmark average. Bigger displacement can help low-rpm pull and load-holding feel.
Is the Massey Ferguson 1085 engine stressed for its PTO horsepower?
The engine has about 3.9 cubic inches per PTO hp, using 318 ci and 81 PTO hp. That points to a larger-displacement, lower-stress style setup.
How much PTO horsepower per liter does the Massey Ferguson 1085 make?
The output density is about 15.6 PTO hp per liter, using 81 PTO hp and 5.2 L of displacement. Higher hp/L means more output squeezed from each liter; lower hp/L usually means a more relaxed engine tune.
What rpm is the Massey Ferguson 1085 rated at?
The rated speed is 2,000 rpm, close to the 2,200 rpm benchmark average. The 2,000 rpm figure is around normal for this class.
