Common questions
Farmall 1206 weight FAQ
How much does a Farmall 1206 weigh?
The Farmall 1206 weighs 10,115 lb (4,588 kg) using the published Operating figure. Across the published configurations on this page, weight ranges from 9,400 to 13,580 lb (4,263 to 6,159 kg).
What is the operating weight of the Farmall 1206 compared with shipping weight?
Published operating weight is 10,115 lb (4,588 kg), versus 9,400 lb (4,264 kg) for shipping weight. That is roughly 715 lb (7.6%) 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 1206 weigh with ballast?
The published ballasted weight is 13,580 lb (6,160 kg). That is up to 4,180 lb (44.5%) above the lightest published configuration. Ballast can therefore change the practical hauling and ground-pressure picture substantially on this model.
Is the Farmall 1206 heavy or light for a farm tractor?
It is close to average for its peer group. The representative figure sits at about the 70th percentile, near the middle of the all tractors in this dataset. That puts it in the average range for this comparison. It is 188 lb heavier than the peer-group average of 9,927 lb.
How wide is the Farmall 1206 for transport?
The maximum published tractor width is 92 in (7.7 ft). That is 10 in under 8.5 ft before allowing for a loader, duals, implements or other equipment that may increase transport width.
Does the Farmall 1206 weigh more than 10,000 lb?
Yes. The representative published weight is 10,115 lb, and the heaviest published configuration on this page is 13,580 lb (6.79 US tons). Any trailer calculation also needs the trailer itself plus fuel, ballast, attachments and other equipment.
