About Hesston

Fiat tractor imports carrying the Hesston name began in 1980. The tractor badge was part of a wider implement business, so a change in tractor branding should not be mistaken for the disappearance of all Hesston equipment.

Index power values can include estimates derived from belt or PTO power. They are identified on each model card and are not interchangeable with a measured engine rating. Model years and missing values follow the source index.
