The register lists 3 versions with 106 to 126 kW (145 to 171 hp) from six-cylinders of 6,728 cc displacement. Operating weight is 6,500 kg, with dimensions of 5,209 mm length, 2,495 mm width and 2,900 mm height. All three models run on diesel.

As a wheeled standard tractor with a large six-cylinder engine, the XTX range serves the upper output segment for heavy field work and pulling power, without resorting to the TTX range's track undercarriage; the market segment overlaps with the standard tractors of Case IH, New Holland and Deutz-Fahr, which likewise build on a six-cylinder base of 6.7 litres, as well as with the brand's own four-cylinder X4 models for smaller operations.

On a used purchase, points to check include the condition of the clutch and gearbox, the tightness of the six-cylinder's radiator and charge-air ducting, wear on the front axle and four-wheel drive, and corrosion on the cab floor and mudguards. 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.
  • Check front and rear tyre sizes: mismatched pairs strain the drivetrain.
  • Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
  • Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
