Common questions
Farmall 460 weight FAQ
How much does a Farmall 460 weigh?
The Farmall 460 weighs 5,835 lb (2,646 kg) using the published Operating — gas figure. Across the published configurations on this page, weight ranges from 5,835 to 8,931 lb (2,646 to 4,051 kg).
What is the operating weight of the Farmall 460?
The published operating weight is 5,835–6,055 lb (2,647–2,747 kg). This is usually a more useful real-world figure than a bare shipping specification, although ballast, loader, fuel, implements and tire setup can still increase actual working weight.
How much does the Farmall 460 weigh with ballast?
The published ballasted weight is 8,931 lb (4,051 kg). That is up to 3,096 lb (53.1%) above the lightest published configuration. Ballast can therefore change the practical hauling and ground-pressure picture substantially on this model.
Is the Farmall 460 a lightweight row-crop tractor?
Yes. The representative figure sits at about the 12th percentile, lighter than roughly 88% of the row-crop tractor peers. That puts it in the light range for this comparison. It is 8,171 lb lighter than the peer-group average of 14,006 lb.
How wide is the Farmall 460 for transport?
The maximum published tractor width is 83.5 in (7 ft). That is 18.5 in under 8.5 ft before allowing for a loader, duals, implements or other equipment that may increase transport width.
How many tons does the Farmall 460 weigh?
The representative published weight is about 2.92 US tons, while the full published range is 2.92–4.47 US tons. Loaded transport weight can be higher than the tractor specification.
