Massey Ferguson 3600 series

9 models in this series

The 3600 series from Massey Ferguson comprises 9 models. Rated output ranges from 113 to 190 hp.

MF 3600: the strong sister to the 3000 series, 113 to 180 hp, six-cylinder diesels throughout at 5,797 to 7,368 cm3 displacement

As a more powerful complement to the 3000 series, Massey Ferguson positioned the 3600 series in the upper mid-range, with six-cylinder engines throughout for greater drawbar pull.

The register lists 9 live models, from the MF 3610 to the MF 3690 (A), built between 1987 and 1995. Output ranges from 83.2 to 139.8 kW, or 113 to 180 hp, weight from 5,180 to 6,720 kg, displacement from 5,797 to 7,368 cm3.

With this positioning, the 3600 series bridged the gap between the 3000-series mid-range and the subsequent big-tractor ranges, which were increasingly fitted with electronic engine management through the 1990s.

For arable operations needing high drawbar pull but no articulated technology, the MF 3600 offered a conventional, proven alternative.

When buying used, on the six-cylinder 3600-series models, the injection system and turbocharger where fitted, wear to clutch and gearbox under sustained draft work, and the tightness of the lift hydraulics matter especially; rust on cab and mudguards after years of arable use is common too. Parts run through the global dealer network of the AGCO group, which Massey Ferguson has belonged to since the 1990s. The three-point linkage on these six-cylinder models corresponds to ISO 730 Category II to III, depending on specification, with a PTO speed of 540 or 1,000 rpm.
