On the launch of the MAGNATRAK series in Karnataka, Mallika Srinivasan, CMD - TAFE, said, “For over sixty years, TAFE and the Massey Ferguson brand have shared a deep and strong bond with the farmers of Karnataka. Karnataka is a state of progressive farmers who are rapidly adopting latest technologies to increase productivity and derive enhanced value from their farming operations. To meet their key aspirations of power, style, comfort and performance, TAFE launched the new MAGNATRAK series. We are honoured to introduce the premium heavy haulage specialist tractor - the MAGNATRAK in Karnataka.”

Powered by the superior MAGNATORQ Engine, this premium haulage specialist tractor offers maximum torque and high fuel efficiency. With the class highest torque of 200 Nm, the tractor can easily pull heavy trolleys, both off-road and on-road. The engine and the transmission are well-tuned to deliver exceptional productivity with high road speeds resulting in more savings, faster load completion cycles and high fuel efficiency.

One of the key highlights of the MAGNATRAK is the precision MF Dura Cool Brakes with Slope Assist System that provides best-in-class braking efficiency even on a downward slope with heavily loaded trolley, better control and unmatched safety.

The world-class styling and design make MAGNATRAK series the “The BOSS of Tractors”. The state-of-the art MAGNA Styling has sophisticated elements that include an aerodynamic single-piece bonnet with a

one-touch front opening system. The spacious platform, stylish looks, modern steering wheel and an adjustable seat mark the gold standard of operating comfort. An industry first, the MF 8055 comes with powerful projector headlamps along with Tri-LED for better visibility and more brightness at night.

Best suited for heavyduty operations like sugarcane haulage, construction material and other heavy tonnage loads, the MAGNATRAK series is well-compatible with a wide variety of agricultural applications like reversible mouldboard plough (RMB), rotavator, post-hole digger, threshers and newer applications like the baler as well.

MAGNATRAK’s higher ground clearance helps in easy navigation of the tractor, even while crossing bunds and uneven roads. Its longer wheelbase ensures stability and prevents front lifting while pulling heavy loads. The high PTO placement offers superior performance with a wide variety of PTO operated implements. Safety guards for radiator and silencer further make the MAGNATRAK an extremely safe and dependable tractor.

The user-friendly and novel features of the MAGNATRAK bring together advanced technology and seamless experience, custom-made for the Indian soil.
