Subject: RE: Massey VT transmission... teach me!



Thanks guys for the input..  yeah,  no real  specific questions,   just  my  2 weeks of  working with it,  and  some concerns..  mainly  because of  my   lack of knowledge on  these new tractors.   

lol,   there's   2000# of  suitcase weights out front,  and    250kg  wheel weights  on each rear tire..  I  thought at first,  'this thing is going to  feel  sluggish,  and  tear up  sod in the hayfields'..

It's actually pretty   'light' on it's  feet.   I suppose  with  it's  simple transmission,   and  the 4 cylinder engine,   there just isn't enough  built-in weight, and  added on   ballast was necessary. 
  Good to hear the  cvt  has held up.  
Yeah,  this 'old fart'  has a long ways  to  go  from my stick and clutch  iron,  to this thing!     You are correct,  it seems  like  driving  a  video game!   
I take it it uses  the Fendt   transmission?    Heck,  maybe  the whole thing is  Fendt  painted  with Massey red and decals..   Makes no difference to me.
