The MF 6712 is a tractor from Massey Ferguson, classified within the tractor group. It is equipped with a four‑cylinder diesel engine delivering 120 PS at a rated speed of 2,200 U/min. The engine displacement is 4,400 cm³, the wheelbase measures 2,500 mm and the curb weight is 4,230 kg. The transmission is a Dyna Synchroshift 12/12 and the maximum road speed reaches 40 km/h.
A power output of 120 PS enables the machine to pull heavy implements and handle field tasks with medium to high load. The rated speed of 2,200 U/min provides a broad torque band that is useful when starting under load. The relatively compact wheelbase of 2,500 mm contributes to good maneuverability, while the weight of 4,230 kg results in moderate ground pressure, reducing soil compaction. The twelve‑speed gearbox allows fine selection of ratios for various working conditions, and the top speed of 40 km/h is adequate for field operations and short transport runs.
Since no direct comparison within the series is provided, the tractor’s role is described from its specifications: the MF 6712 is suited for tasks that require a medium power level combined with balanced pulling capacity, agility and transport speed, such as plowing, mowing or moving harvested crops over short distances.
Massey Ferguson – other models: the collective page of tractors outside the named ranges, from the MF 35 and 135 through the 1000, 2000 and 3000 series to the MF 1200 (compact) and the 8700 S, 5 to 313 kW, Perkins
This page gathers the Massey Ferguson tractors the register could not assign to a named range – from the classics of the 1950s and 1960s such as the MF 35 and MF 135 from Coventry to current compact tractors and big tractors. Massey Ferguson emerged in 1953 from the merger of Massey-Harris (Toronto) with Harry Ferguson's tractor company, whose three-point hydraulics with draft control became the world standard; since 1994 the brand has belonged to AGCO, which builds the tractors in Beauvais, France, and sources the compact class from Iseki in Japan. The brand's type logic changed several times: the three-digit types 130 to 1200 of the 1960s and 1970s order the size in ascending order, the four-digit 1000 to 8000 series of the 1980s to 2000s give the range in the thousands digit and the model in the remaining digits (MF 1250 as compact, MF 3060 as mid-range), and since 2005 two digits mark the range and the last two the power step – MF 5710 as a 5700 with about 100 hp, MF 8737 as an 8700 with about 370 hp; S and the suffix Dyna-VT denote equipment and stepless transmission. The engines come from Perkins (the AD3.152 and 1104 series), AGCO Power (formerly Sisu) in the big and Iseki, Simpson (India) and Kohler in the small models.

The register lists here 1,011 versions with 5.2 to 313 kW from one- to eight-cylinders of 1,123 to 8,419 cm³, PTO outputs from 19 to 290 hp, lift capacities from 540 to 9,950 kg, unladen weights from 670 to 12,000 kg, lengths from 2,480 to 6,200 mm and widths from 1,003 to 3,000 mm.
By unit numbers Massey Ferguson is one of the world's best-selling tractor brands, with strongholds in Britain, France, Scandinavia, Africa and South Asia, where the MF 240 and its Indian and Pakistani licence builds shape the market.
Used, the span is as wide as the brand: on classics originality and Perkins parts count, on compacts hydrostat and front loader, on the 5700 to 8700 operating hours, Dyna transmissions, electronics and exhaust aftertreatment; parts run through AGCO and Perkins.

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.
- 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.
