McCormick X4-T4 – the compact general-purpose tractors X4.30 to X4.60 from the Fabbrico plant with a four-cylinder diesel engine, 50 to 70 kW and 2.9 to 4.4 litres of displacement

McCormick's X4 range, built by Argo Tractors at the Fabbrico plant in Emilia-Romagna, comprises the X4.30, X4.35 and X4.60 models. The decimal in the type designation indicates the approximate output class within the X4 family, and all three models share the compact, four-cylinder engine concept.

The register lists 3 versions with 50 to 70 kW (68 to 95 hp) from four-cylinders of 2,900 to 4,400 cc displacement at a rated speed of 2,200 rpm. Operating weight ranges from 3,000 to 3,500 kg, length from 4,182 to 4,321 mm, width is 1,750 mm and height ranges from 2,563 to 2,582 mm. All three models run on diesel.

The X4 range targets versatile mid-range tractors for mixed operations, covering field work as well as transport and yard tasks; the compact 1,750 mm width eases work on tighter yards and inside farm buildings. In the line-up, the range competes with similarly positioned four-cylinder compact tractors from Deutz-Fahr, Kubota and New Holland.

On a used purchase, points to check include the condition of the clutch and gearbox, the tightness of the radiator and charge-air ducting, wear on the front axle and steering, and corrosion on the cab floor and mudguards. The function of the front hydraulics and the completeness of the implement couplers are also worth a close look. Spare parts are available through the Argo Tractors network for McCormick.

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.
  • Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
  • Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
