Compact all-round workhorse
Clive Jones of Lower Pendre Farm, Llangorse, Brecon, Wales, UK
“Our MF 5435 is a real little all-rounder, and was purchased for mowing and tedding as well as for hauling
silage and straw and is fitted with a front loader.
“We have found a lot more jobs than we expected for the MF 5435 since it arrived in June. It has hauled
1000 bales of silage and 500 of straw this year, and we also use it for all of our spraying and fertiliser
application.”
Dyna-4 transmission
Jeremy Platt, Dairy Farmer, Northwich, Cheshire, UK.
“This is an ideal tractor for a dairy farm – easy to use, comfortable and with enough technology without
being overcomplicated,” he explains.
He picks out the Dyna-4 transmission with its unique left-hand shuttle as its strongest feature. “On the
feeder wagon, there’s no need to use the clutch when feeding out and moving around the buildings – it’s
really useful. I wasn’t aware of just how good this transmission was until I used it.”
Professional service, quality products
Pawel Zienczyk, Zienczyk Farm, Jarzabkowo, Niechanowo, Poland
The latest addition to Pawel’s long-line of Massey Ferguson machinery is an MF 5435 with a front loader.
Purchased for its multi-application capabilities on the livestock and arable farm, the MF 5435 now
completes a range that secures the smooth running of Pawel’s business.
“We love the MF machinery on our farm, owning MF tractors means we can work quickly and without
faults whilst maintaining best operator comfort.” Pawel tells us.
“We receive a good quality service from our local dealership, they are professional, helpful and always
friendly. This means a lot to us, especially at busy times of the year when we need all the support we
can get.”

Powerful hydraulics
Mark Channell, Agricultural Contractor,
Cambridge, UK
“An important role for our MF 5480 is powering
a hydraulically-driven waste baler. We specified
Closed Centre Load Sensing hydraulics with
110l/min flow, which has improved cycle times
considerably – we have gone from 35 minutes
per bale to as little as 20 minutes” comments
Mark.
“The generous hydraulic capacity has also
speeded cycle times with our MF 955 loader,
which is used for tasks such as moving topsoil
as well as in the waste recycling operation, and
when working around the confines of the yard,
the tractor is also highly manoeuvrable.”
“This tractor ticks all the boxes – it is exactly
what my business needs.”
and on fuel economy ...
“The 145hp MF 5480 is very economical on fuel,
at least as good as my previous tractor which
was just 90hp. “There is ample power for the
job which means the tractor is not working as
hard and uses less fuel.”
