Engineered for Productivity

MX Series tractors are engineered to provide

smooth, reliable performance under any field conditions.

By moving the engine forward, lengthening the wheel­

base, and improving weight distribution with a heavy,

one-piece cast-iron frame, both stability and weight

distribution have been greatly improved.

The new Mechanical Front Drive offers a heavy-duty

lube-for-life driveline and a 55 degree turning angle for

greater maneuverability and the best turning radius inits class. And the new 2WD front axle is the same heavy

duty axle found on MAGNUM tractors.

Standard turbocharged 5.9 L, 6 cylinder diesel engines

deliver up to 44% torque rise and are isomounted toisolate vibration and noise from the all-new cab.

Case IH Pressure-Flow Compensated (PFC)

hydraulics, with 47% more hydraulic flow and

28.9 GPM pump, sense hydraulic requirements, thenmatch the exact flow needed for the load to minimize

power requirements and stress on the system.

MX Series tractors also maximize your productivity in

even the toughest situations with a choice of rugged,

standard 16-speed synchronized, powershift or

32-speed creeper transmissions.

designed isomounts to isolate enginevibration and noise

from the frame.

Flange axles and 112" (2844 mm)

bar axles are available for increased versatility.

A 16speed synchronizedtransmission is standard on all

models except the MX 135,

which has a powershift

transmission with synchronized

range. StJ1ndardcreeper and

super creeper transmissions areavailable on all models.

RELIABLE POWERTRAIN

A high capacity torsional dampener

can handle 80% greater torque loads

than the previous MAXXVM Series,

which creates a quieter, smoother

operating environment

A heavy duty, ConstJ1ntVelocity

Shaft, with lube-for-life V-joints,

connects the engine and

transmission.

All MX Series models have quick

response turbochargers for high

lugging ability.

Slide out oil cooler and air

conditioner condenser make

cleaning easy.

A rugged Mechanical Front Drive

(MFD) is optional on all models. The

MFD is integrated into the tractor's

overall design to withstJ1ndyour

most demanding traction

requirements.

The compact, non-structural engine

design is solely dedicated to providing

raw agricultural power. The engine

contains up to 40% fewer parts than

competitive engines. Components such

as the oil and water pump housing, oil

cooler housing, oil filter and alternator

mounting are all cast into the block This

adds strength and eliminates parts such

as gaskets, resulting in greater

performance and reliability.

The air intake port is designed for

efficient air mixing, which is required for

optimum combustion and top fuel

efficiency. A short exhaust port quickly

expels heat. This improves turbocharger

efficiency, extends service intervals and

prolongs engine life.

Engine valve covers are

individually a-ring sealed to

prevent oil leakage at the

valve cover area due to engine

temperature fluctuation.

Intake and exhaust manifolds are

located on opposite sides of the

engine head to greatly improve

engine efficiency by creating a

natural cross-flow air pattern.

5 hole Bosch injectors provide

increased fuel atomization for full

power and better fuel economy.

An alternating valve design keeps

the engine operating cooler and

more efficiently. And valves

rotate automatically, eliminating

mechanical rotators for design simplicity.

Seven large diameter main bearings provide excellent load

carrying capacity.

Turbochargers are specially designed for these engines. As

a result, Case engines are more fuel efficient and capable

of delivering higher horsepower with less engine stress.

A slide-out oil cooler and air conditioner condenser allows

for easier cleaning of the oil cooler, air conditioner and radiator.

A double-shrouded water pump impeller

increases the system's ability to with­

stand adverse conditions while reducing

the potential for a vapor pocket to entrap

air. For greater reliability, the water pump

uses an a-ring seal instead of a gasket.

A POL Y-VEE fan belt extends belt life up to three times

that of conventional belts. This single belt does the

job of several belts on other diesels, simplifying

maintenance and improving reliability. An

automatic belt tensioner minimizes wear and

prevents slippage, which is a cornman cause of

engine overheating.

Built-in piston oil cooling sprays oil from the crankshaft to

the bottom of the piston for outstanding lubrication and cooling.

Case IH tractors are known for. By casting components

into the block, the new engines have up to 40% fewer

parts than competitive engines.

The special new, lube-for-life joints on the drive shaft,

between the engine and the transmission, eliminate greas­

ing and extend the life span of your investment. And a

new, aspirated exhaust draws dirt out of the

air cleaner and eliminates it from the sys­

tem through the exhaust.The :MXSeries Mechanical Front Drive

has been redesigned to serve you better. A

totally new front axle lets you mount larger

diameter front tires to decrease ground

pressure and increase clearance. The optionalnew MFD, in heavier housing, automatically

sends power to the front axle to help pull you

through rough areas in the field. And the

improved, 55 degree turning angle adds

maneuverability to improve productivity.

A new temperature-controlled viscous fan

increases fuel efficiency and cooling, while

decreasing noise.

The new MAXXUM :MXSeries tractors have been

improved from the bottom up. Narrower, cast iron side rail

frames improve the strength, turning radius with larger

front tires, and stability of the new line. And engines

mounted using isomount technology, reduce vibration and

noise, making MAXXUM tractors even quieter and morecomfortable.

'Ib improve weight transfer and increase

stability, the engine has been moved for­ward 10.77" (273.5 mm) on the frame. The

6.4% longer wheelbase provides better

weight distribution and improved handling

under heavy loads. Better stability lets you

work with fewer front weights and improves

fuel efficiency, while reducing compaction.Modern design, turbocharged, 5.9 liter,

6 cylinder, 359 cubic inch diesel engines give

you the power you need, when you need it.

The :MX Series still has the same deeptorque reserves and fuel efficiency

A sleeveless, integral bore engine has no

cylinder liners to replace. This eliminates

cylinder sleeve leakage and minimizes

cavitation erosion. This durable design

features less bore distortion and better oil

control for longer life. Cylinders are honed

to size, then receive a second plateau

honing to remove the sharp peaks from the

cylinder wall. This results in reduced friction

and better sealing.

Designed For Performance

Case IH offers a range of durable transmission options

designed to maximize performance. With 125 million

hours of field-proven reliability, MAXXUM powershift andsynchromesh transmissions will stand up to your tough­

est demands. Uniquely designed for efficiency and

strength, these transmissions fit the way you farm.

With a power flow similar to that of the synchronized

transmission, the powershift transmission is driven by a

constant velocity shaft, with lube-for-life U-joints, which

connects the engine to the transmission.

Input power passes into the selected powershift speed

transmission clutch pack, through the optional speed

gears, to the forward and reverse (FIR) clutch packs.

From the FIR clutch packs, the power is taken to the rear

differential through the selected range transmission gear.

Power is also directed forward, through a set of drop

gears, to the MFD clutch pack. Power flow continues for­ward out of the transmission to the MFD axle when the

clutch pack is engaged.

The independent live PTO picks up its drive from the

Power then flows rearward to the PTO clutch pack. This

shaft is also the drive for the hydraulic pump prior to

going into the PTO clutch pack. Power flows through the

clutch pack, when engaged, out the rear of the tractor viathe reversible 540/1000 rpm PTO shaft.

All clutches are oil lubricated and cooled by a high flow

oil to ensure reliable performance and long clutch life.

The direction of travel may be engaged by flipping the

power shuttle lever from neutral to forward or reverse.

The power shuttle lever is mounted on the steeringcolumn for high productivity and operator comfort.

This well proven design adds up to a more durable,

longer life transmission to meet the everyday demands

of feedlot operations and the transmission speeds required

of fieldwork applications.
