Common questions
Farmall 404 weight FAQ
How much does a Farmall 404 weigh?
The Farmall 404 weighs 4,115 lb (1,866 kg) using the published Operating figure. Across the published configurations on this page, weight ranges from 3,400 to 6,645 lb (1,542 to 3,014 kg).
What is the operating weight of the Farmall 404 compared with shipping weight?
Published operating weight is 4,115 lb (1,867 kg), versus 3,400 lb (1,542 kg) for shipping weight. That is roughly 715 lb (21%) more than shipping weight. Operating weight is generally the more useful starting point when estimating a ready-to-use tractor.
How much does the Farmall 404 weigh with ballast?
The published ballasted weight is 6,645 lb (3,014 kg). That is up to 3,245 lb (95.4%) above the lightest published configuration. Ballast can therefore change the practical hauling and ground-pressure picture substantially on this model.
Is the Farmall 404 a lightweight row-crop tractor?
Yes. The representative figure sits at about the 7th percentile, lighter than roughly 93% of the row-crop tractor peers. That puts it in the very light range for this comparison. It is 9,891 lb lighter than the peer-group average of 14,006 lb.
What is the Farmall 404 weight-to-horsepower ratio?
Using the page’s representative 4,115 lb weight and 36.7 hp power figure, the tractor carries about 112.1 lb per horsepower. A lower lb/hp number means less tractor mass for each horsepower; this is a comparison metric, not a traction or performance rating.
How many tons does the Farmall 404 weigh?
The representative published weight is about 2.06 US tons, while the full published range is 1.7–3.32 US tons. Loaded transport weight can be higher than the tractor specification.
