Perkins 1004.4T 4-cylinder direct injection turbocharged water-cooled diesel
engine.
A 244 cubic inches (4 L) engine has a cylinder bore of 3.94" (100 mm),
piston stroke of 5.00" (127 mm), max power of 95 hp (70.8 kW), and 374
Nm (276 lb-ft) of peak torque at 1500 rpm. The Massey Ferguson 4253 is

transmission, 12x4 partially synchronized transmission, and 12x12
synchronized shuttle transmission. The maximum travel speed (forward and
reverse): 24.7 mph (39.7 kph) / 24.8 mph (39.8 kph).
The open center hydraulic system includes a gear pump with a flow of 10
gpm (37.8 lpm). The main relief pressure is 210 bar (3050 psi). The 2WD
models are equipped with 7.5Lx15 front tyres and 18.4x30 rear tyres. The
420/70R28 front tyres and 18.4R38 rear tyres fit 4WD tractors. The
wheelbase is 93" (2360 mm). The tractor is compatible with a Massey
Ferguson 1036 loader with lift capacity to full height of 3755 lbs (1703
kg) and breakout force of 6900 lbs (3130 kg).
