Valmet/Valtra – other models: the collective page of Finnish tractors outside the named ranges, from the Valmet 800 through the 8000 series to the 6750-4 Hitech, 59 to 118 kW, four- to six-cylinder engines

This page gathers the tractors listed under Valmet and Valtra the register could not assign to a named range – from the Valmet 800 through the 8000 size classes (8150, 8400, 8450, 8950-4) to the 6750-4 Hitech and the later 6600E. Valmet, the Finnish tractor brand from Suolahti with state roots, built the first Finnish tractor in 1951 and was renamed Valtra in 1997 after Sisu came on board; since 2004 the brand has belonged to AGCO. The digit 4 after the type, as in the 6750-4 and 8950-4, marks four-wheel drive, Hitech the equipment with electronic control, E a later model stage.

The register lists here 7 versions with 59 to 118 kW from four- to six-cylinders of 4,390 to 7,368 cm³, unladen weights from 3,650 to 5,220 kg, gross weights from 6,500 to 11,000 kg, lengths from 4,100 to 4,950 mm and widths from 2,110 to 2,470 mm.

Valmet and the later Valtra are market leaders in Finland and Scandinavia; the 8000 series was among the largest and most powerful Finnish-built tractors of the 1980s and 1990s and was widespread above all in forestry and large-scale farming.

Used, on these size classes operating hours, the condition of the engine and injection, the shuttle transmission and powershift steps, the four-wheel-drive clutch and hydraulics and rust on the cab and mudguards count; parts today run through Valtra and AGCO.

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.
