The name “Massey Ferguson 1033” is widely known in the used tractor market.
However, it is important to clarify a key fact from the beginning.
The Massey Ferguson 1033 is not an official model produced or sold by
Massey Ferguson or AGCO.
Instead, tractors advertised as “MF 1033” are gray-market units, most commonly Hinomoto tractors that were repainted and relabeled by importers.
Therefore, understanding the true origin of this tractor is essential for buyers.
Since 2006, EVERY FARM TRACTOR has focused on transparent and accurate information, exporting used tractors from Japan to over 100 countries worldwide.
Manufacturer & Background
| Item | Details |
|---|---|
| Advertised Name | Massey Ferguson 1033 |
| Actual Manufacturer | Hinomoto |
| Distributor (original) | Not Massey Ferguson |
| Production Status | Gray-market model |
| Common Base Model | Hinomoto E2304 |
| Similar Case | Hinomoto E1804 sold as “MF 1022” |
In other words, the tractor is not a genuine Massey Ferguson product.
It does not originate from AGCO production lines.
Why the “1033” Name Exists
In several regions, especially parts of the southern United States, importers repainted Hinomoto tractors in red and applied Massey Ferguson decals.
As a result, the unofficial name “1033” began to circulate.
Although the tractor itself can be mechanically solid, the model name is incorrect.
Therefore, buyers must evaluate the machine based on its true Hinomoto specifications, not the Massey Ferguson brand name.
Engine Information
Exact engine specifications vary because these tractors were never produced under a standardized “1033” model.
General Engine Characteristics
| Item | Specification |
|---|---|
| Engine Type | Diesel |
| Cylinders | Varies by Hinomoto base model |
| Cooling | Liquid-cooled (typical) |
Consequently, engine displacement and output depend on the original Hinomoto model, most often the E2304.
Mechanical Configuration
| Item | Details |
|---|---|
| Drive System | Four-wheel drive (commonly) |
| Steering | Mechanical / power assist (varies) |
| Brakes | Mechanical |
| Operator Station | Open |
| ROPS | Usually added by importer |
Because ROPS units are typically installed after import, specifications may differ between individual machines.
Dimensions & Tires
Since “MF 1033” tractors originate from different Hinomoto models, dimensions and tire sizes are not standardized.
Therefore, EVERY FARM TRACTOR recommends confirming:
-
Actual Hinomoto model number
-
Engine serial plate
-
Frame and drivetrain condition
before purchase.
Important Buyer Guidance
When considering a tractor advertised as Massey Ferguson 1033, buyers should note:
-
❌ It is not an official Massey Ferguson model
-
❌ It is not produced by AGCO
-
✅ It is typically a Hinomoto E2304 or similar
-
✅ Mechanical quality depends on actual condition, not branding
Because of this, the tractor should be evaluated as a Japanese-built Hinomoto tractor, not as a Massey Ferguson.
Why Transparency Matters
Many overseas buyers search for Used Kubota Tractor or Massey Ferguson models due to brand trust.
However, gray-market tractors require extra caution.
EVERY FARM TRACTOR believes:
-
Correct model identification builds trust
-
Accurate information prevents disputes
-
Long-term partnerships depend on honesty
