Massey Ferguson 6700: S and R series, gearboxes and what to check
Massey Ferguson 6700 — a mid-range tractor series produced since 2012. We look at the S and R versions, gearboxes and what to check when buying a used tractor.
6700 in brief
Massey Ferguson 6700 — versatile tractors designed for work with ploughs, cultivators, seeders, presses and trailers. The series includes models with roughly 110–200 HP, making it popular in medium and large-sized farms.
The numbers in the model names indicate the power class: 6712 is lower, while 6718 is one of the most powerful in the series. The letter S or R indicates the version with different equipment.
Which version to choose
The R series typically offers simpler equipment and a lower price, while the S series provides more comfort, an improved cab and the option to choose more advanced gearboxes, including Dyna-VT.
S versions come with Essential, Efficient and Exclusive trim levels. If you have a lot of work and want comfort, it's worth choosing Efficient or Exclusive.
Engines and gearboxes
The tractors are powered by AGCO Power four- and six-cylinder diesel engines with SCR system and AdBlue. Always check the exact power according to the tractor's documents.
Gearboxes: Dyna-4, Dyna-6 (semi-automatic) and Dyna-VT (stepless). Dyna-VT is popular for its smooth driving and economy, but its repairs are more expensive.
What to check when buying a used 6700
Test the gearbox: movement and shifting should be smooth. For Dyna-VT, check for error codes and ensure the speed remains stable.
Inspect the hydraulics, lift mechanism, and power take-off shaft. If the tractor worked with a loader, check the front axle and lift cylinders.
Check the SCR system and AdBlue pump. Review the service history and ensure that oils were changed according to the manufacturer's intervals.
