With the MF 7497, AGCO Massey Ferguson offers a model from the 7400er series. Production: 2009–2012. The engine delivers 205 hp (150.9 kW), has 6 cylinders, with a displacement of 7,368 cm³. Rated speed is 2,200 rpm. The machine is 5,060 mm long, 2,494 mm wide and 3,066 mm high. The unladen weight is 7,426 kg. The wheelbase measures 2,996 mm. Ground clearance is 480 mm. Top speed is 40 km/h. Transmission: continuously variable. The engine is water-cooled. Tyres: front 480/70 R 28 AS, rear 620/70 R 42 AS. The fuel is diesel. The 7400er-Baureihe series covers 5 models. Rated output within it ranges from 120 to 220 hp; the MF 7497 sits at the top of that range with 205 hp. Its immediate neighbours are the MF 7480 below it with 145 hp and the MF 7499 above it with 220 hp. Unladen weight within it ranges from 6,250 to 8,021 kg; here the MF 7497 sits in the upper part of that range with 7,426 kg. 146 AGCO Massey Ferguson models across 33 series are on record.

Massey Ferguson MF 7400 (2003–2012) – the Dyna-VT range from Beauvais: MF 7465 to MF 7499, the last digits as power step, Sisu six-cylinders of 6.0 and 7.4 litres, stepless transmission as hallmark, 88 to 162 kW

The MF 7400 was Massey Ferguson's range for the stepless transmission: introduced in Beauvais in 2003 as a complement to the MF 6400 with Dyna-6 powershift, it carried the Dyna-VT transmission AGCO derived from the Fendt Vario and thus offered in the mid-range as the second group after Fendt. The type logic: 74 marks the range, the last two digits the power step – MF 7465 about 125 hp, MF 7475 about 140, MF 7480 about 150, MF 7497 about 200, MF 7499 about 220 hp with power boost – the range being extended in 2008 up to the 7495 and 7499 with 7.4 litre engine. The engines are Sisu six-cylinders from Linnavuori (today AGCO Power) of 6.0 litres in the small and 7.4 litres in the big models, at 2,200 rpm, with common-rail injection and SCR exhaust aftertreatment in the last generation – in 2008 MF was the first maker to introduce SCR in tractors.

The register lists 5 versions with 88.3 to 161.9 kW from six-cylinders of 5,987 to 7,368 cm³, unladen weights from 6,250 to 8,021 kg, lengths from 4,720 to 5,060 mm, widths from 2,450 to 2,550 mm and heights from 2,895 to 3,100 mm.

The MF 7400 made the stepless transmission at Massey Ferguson the standard of the upper mid-range; in 2012 the MF 7600 and in 2014 the MF 7700 followed in the same logic.

On used tractors, operating hours, Sisu engine and injection, Dyna-VT transmission (oil history, calibration, noises), front-axle and cab suspension, hydraulics and electronics, on SCR models the AdBlue system count; parts run through the AGCO network.

What to check before buying

  • Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
  • Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
  • Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
  • Check front and rear tyre sizes: mismatched pairs strain the drivetrain.
  • Shift the gearbox cold and warm — jumps only show up at temperature.
  • Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
  • Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
