Tractorman810 Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 buys just seen one of these down here today,a rare sight to see such a beast,but what i am wondering is it basicly the model before the current 82 series? not seen one of those down here so have no real clue if they are the same or not,size wise or not,any pics of more 81's would be good to ,as may do a convo of one at some point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

civilpek Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 the smaller models in this series up as far as the 8130 i think had bonnets like the 6180, but as they got bigger the bonet started to slope more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pingu Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 Here's a photo the hp were 135hp - MF 8110(S) 145hp - MF 8120 155hp - MF 8130 160hp - MF 8140 (not much of increase in power but stronger chassis better for heavy draft work) 180hp - MF 8150 (sold well) 200hp - MF 8160 (not that reliable from what i hear) 230hp - MF 8170 (came with same Funk transmission as 82 series as were only started mde 97/98) 260hp - MF 8180 (a rare machine) Pic 1 - shows a MF 8130 same size as 8120 (not my photo) Pic 2 - MF 8170 shows the bonnets that were on MF 8140 - 8180 (not my photo i'm rushing) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
