2023 Massey Ferguson MF 1800 Series 1840

2022 Massey Ferguson MF 1800 Series 1840

Thanks to our exclusive in-line design, every small bale produced by our Hesston by Massey Ferguson® 1800 Series is easier to handle, stack and feed. Our bales are also denser, with more consistent bale flakes and less leaf loss.

Unlike competitors, our 1800 Series is designed to follow directly behind the tractor. The result is dense, high-quality hay with no flimsy, banana-shaped bales that immediately fall apart when they're picked up.

Maybe you need a strong, reliable baler for a limited number of acres. Or you're a high-volume producer and custom operator who mechanically loads and transports a lot of hay. The 1800 Series has models to fill both needs.

Because of the in-line design there is no need to make adjustments throughout the day or season, just perfectly formed bales every time.

Since the baler follows the tractor, your transport and field operating positions are the same. For this reason, using an accumulator or wagon is a breeze.

To fit the needs of your operation you can choose from two tie 14"x18" models 1838 and 1840, a 16"x18" two tie model 1842 or the 15"x22" three tie 1844S.

Features may include:

• Our OptiForm™ bale chamber for the 1840 has been extended by 18 inches to ensure consistent bale shape and density in all conditions.

• Our pre-compression chamber starts building density before making a bale flake to reduce plunger load, lower HP requirements and increase baling capacity.

• Enhanced pick-up cross augers provide additional pick-up capacity, particularly in large windrows and uneven crops.

• A new packer fork with revised spacing significantly increases feeder capacity in a wide range of crops and conditions

• Because field and road positions are one and the same, you save time when you’re on the move.

• A gauge lets you preset bale density to keep bale density and weight constant even as hay moisture conditions change throughout the day.

• Since each bale flake is pre-formed before it goes into the bale chamber, the nutritious leaves are more evenly distributed throughout the bale.

• Short plunger strokes in the 1800 Series reduces wear on the baler, prolonging component life and increasing reliability.
