ENGINE DETAIL
The Case 1294 tractor features a robust 4-cylinder diesel engine with a displacement of 3.6L, delivering 62hp at a rated RPM of 2200. Its high compression ratio of 17:1 and peak torque of 164.5 lb-ft at 1250 RPM provide strong low-end power, making it suitable for heavy-duty applications. However, the relatively limited oil capacity of 7.8 quarts may require more frequent maintenance to ensure optimal engine performance and longevity.

J.I. CASE 1294 ENGINE
The Case 1294 tractor is powered by a robust 3.6L, 4-cylinder diesel engine, providing a good balance of power and fuel efficiency for diverse agricultural tasks. Its 26.4-gallon (99.9L) fuel tank ensures extended operational time between refueling, which is beneficial for larger fields or remote work scenarios. However, its diesel engine may require more maintenance compared to gasoline engines, and noise levels can be higher, affecting operator comfort.

TRANSMISSION
The Case 1294 tractor features a synchromesh transmission, providing seamless gear shifts that enhance operator comfort, particularly during heavy-duty tasks. With 12 forward and 4 reverse gears, it offers versatility for various terrains and applications, allowing for precise speed control and maneuverability. However, the 28.9 qt (27.4 L) oil capacity may require frequent monitoring to ensure optimal performance and prevent potential overheating in demanding conditions.

MECHANICAL
The Case 1294 tractor features a robust 4x4 MFWD option, enhancing traction in diverse terrains, which is advantageous for fieldwork on slopes or muddy ground; however, the mechanical rear differential lock may limit maneuverability in tight spaces. Its hydrostatic power steering allows for easier handling, crucial during long hours in the field, though it may require more maintenance than traditional systems. The 12-speed synchromesh transmission provides smooth gear shifts, making it suitable for varying applications, albeit at the cost of potential complexity in repairs compared to simpler transmission types.

J.I. CASE 1294 TIRES
The Case 1294 tractor features a versatile tire configuration of 7.50-16 for 2WD in the front and 12.4-24 for 4WD, ensuring improved traction and stability, particularly in varied agricultural applications. The rear tires, available in 13.6-38 or 13.6-36 sizes, provide excellent load-bearing capability, enhancing the tractor's performance in heavy-duty tasks. However, the choice between 2WD and 4WD can present challenges in terms of maneuverability and fuel efficiency, where 4WD offers better traction in adverse conditions at the cost of increased fuel consumption.
