The Ford / New Holland / Versatile 9282, 9482, 9682, and 9882 tractors are powerful 4-wheel-drive articulated machines built in the late 1990s for high-horsepower agricultural, row-crop, and heavy implement operations. Produced between 1996 and 2000, these models share a rugged architecture with Cummins diesel engines (from 8.3 L in the 9282 up to ~14.0 L in the 9882), closed-center hydraulics with high pump flow and pressure, and strong hitch / PTO outputs to take on the most demanding field tasks.
The 9282 delivers ~260 hp gross, tested PTO power over 230 hp, and ~200 hp drawbar performance. The mid-series 9682 pushes closer to ~360 hp, while the 9882 leads the line at ~425 hp, with drawbar testing exceeding 346 hp. Hydraulic systems provide large pump flows (45-50 gpm depending on model) with pressures in the 2,250-2,900 psi range. Rear lift capacity at 24″ sits around 13,000 lbs for all models in the series. Fuel tanks hold ~230-245 gallons, and hydraulic fluid capacities are about 31-33 gallons. With wheelbases of ~133 inches and heavy, robust builds (weights from ~17,000 to over 31,000 lbs depending on variant), these tractors offer stability, traction, and power for large scale farming.
The service manual for the 9282 / 9482 / 9682 / 9882 series gives full factory-level repair and maintenance detail. Key sections include engine overhaul & tune-up, fuel and air systems, transmission service, PTO & hitch systems, hydraulic & steering systems, axles & final drives, electrical systems, cab & operator station, cooling & lubrication, and diagnostic & troubleshooting routines. The manual provides exploded diagrams, wiring and hydraulic schematics, torque specifications, fluid capacities, repair intervals, and step-by-step procedures to maintain tractor performance and reliability to OEM standards.
