Manuals and Documents

AGCO Parts Books is a useful official starting point for catalog families and assemblies. Use the model, serial number, and installed equipment before relying on a diagram or parts number.

For any repair or order, record the full serial number, engine, transmission, PTO arrangement, hydraulic equipment, axle or drive configuration, and installed options before relying on a document or illustration.

Parts Checks Before Ordering

Start with the tractor's full serial number, then identify the engine, transmission, PTO, hydraulic equipment, axle or drive configuration, and installed options. Model and production years alone do not confirm fitment.

A parts catalog can help identify assemblies and reference numbers, but it does not prove fitment for an individual Massey Ferguson 174. Verify the tag and the actual tractor before ordering.

Accuracy Note

Tractor specifications can vary by year, region, factory configuration, installed equipment, and later repairs. Match serial range, engine, transmission, PTO setup, and model code before ordering parts or doing service work.
