Pros & cons
Massey Ferguson 4707
- ✓4,850 lb three-point lift at 24 inches handles round balers, big rotary cutters, and 3-bale spears that would overwhelm most tractors under 75 HP
- ✓No DEF tank - the 3.3L AGCO Power engine meets Tier 4 with just a DOC, one less fluid and one less failure point than DEF-equipped rivals
- ✓The 12x12 power shuttle makes loader work genuinely pleasant - direction changes with a flick of the left-hand lever, no clutching
- ✓At 7,478+ lbs it's a legitimately heavy utility tractor that stays planted with the 931X loader lifting 3,420 lbs at the pins
- ✓17.2 GPM hydraulic flow runs hay equipment and hydraulic-hungry implements without starving
- ✓Simple Global Series platform (built for worldwide markets) means fewer electronics to fail than a comparable premium Deere 5R
- ✓Massey's haying pedigree shows - it pairs naturally with MF balers and disc mowers, and dealers know livestock customers
- ✓Owners consistently report it undercuts a comparably equipped John Deere 5075E/5090E package by a healthy margin
- ✗No hydrostatic option - if you want an HST at this horsepower, you're shopping Deere 4066R or Kubota instead
- ✗The 3-cylinder is coarse compared to the smooth 4-cylinder FPT in a Farmall 75C - it's a tractor engine, not a refined one
- ✗AGCO's dealer network has consolidated hard in some regions, so check parts support near you before buying
- ✗Open-station model has a basic flat platform and seat - comfort features are thin until you pay up for the cab
- ✗Resale is respectable but still trails the equivalent green tractor at auction
- ✗At nearly 7,500 lbs bare it's too much tractor for small properties - this is a real farm machine, not an estate tractor
- ✗Some owners report early-hour sensor and emissions-related fault codes that required dealer visits
- ✗The interior fit-out and control ergonomics feel dated next to the current Deere and Kubota utility cabs
Case IH Farmall 75C
- ✓65 PTO HP from the turbocharged FPT 3.4L is genuinely strong for the class - it runs round balers, 10-foot cutters, and disc mowers without strain
- ✓The 3,664 lb 3-point lift at 24 inches beats both the Deere 5075E and New Holland Workmaster 75, so heavy rear implements are no drama
- ✓The optional 12x12 power shuttle with wet clutch makes loader direction changes clutchless and effortless
- ✓The available deluxe cab with air conditioning is one of the nicer offices in the small-utility class for all-weather work
- ✓The compatible L600-series loader lifts around 2,700 lbs and takes a third-function valve for grapple work
- ✓A 23.8-gallon tank and 6,000+ lb frame make it a stable, genuine all-day production tractor
- ✓The FPT diesel meets emissions without owner drama on this platform, and CNH parts support is solid nationwide
- ✓New units are frequently sold with 3-year/3,000-hour factory warranty coverage and aggressive CNH Capital financing
- ✗It's priced a healthy step above the New Holland Workmaster 75 even though both are CNH machines with FPT power
- ✗The base 8x8 mechanical shuttle feels dated, and stepping up to the 12x12 power shuttle adds real money
- ✗Hydraulic flow of 12.5 GPM trails the 16+ GPM the Workmaster 75 and Deere 5075E deliver, so hungry attachments run slower
- ✗No hydrostatic option - buyers who mostly mow or do fine loader work may prefer an HST compact
- ✗At over 6,000 lbs bare it needs a heavy trailer and 3/4-ton-plus truck to move between properties
- ✗Case IH's dealer network is strong in row-crop country but thinner than Deere's in many hobby-farm regions
- ✗Resale value trails an equivalent Deere 5075E, the perennial benchmark in this horsepower class
- ✗A loaded cab, MFD, loader configuration pushes past $63K, serious money for a small operation
