ENGINES OVERVIEW

The Case 310E tractor features a choice of two diesel engines: the robust J.I. Case 3.1L 4-cylinder, which provides higher torque for heavy-duty applications, and the J.I. Case 2.4L 4-cylinder, ideal for lighter tasks with improved fuel efficiency. Key advantages of the 3.1L engine include increased power output, suitable for demanding farm work, while the 2.4L offers a balance of performance and economy, ideal for smaller plots or less intensive use. Potential challenges may arise with the 3.1L in terms of higher fuel consumption, requiring careful economic consideration based on operational needs.

ENGINE DETAIL 1

The Case 310E tractor is equipped with a J.I. Case G-188D diesel engine, providing 40hp at a rated RPM of 1850 and delivering robust torque of 128 lb-ft at 1350 RPM, ideal for tasks requiring consistent pulling power. Its compression ratio of 17.5:1 suggests efficient combustion and reliability under load, while the oil bath air cleaner enhances engine longevity by effectively filtering contaminants. However, keep in mind the coolant capacity of 13 quarts, which is important for maintaining optimal operating temperatures during extended work periods.

ENGINE DETAIL 2

The Case 310E tractor features a J.I. Case G-148B diesel engine with a compact 2.4L displacement delivering 42hp and a substantial torque of 128lb-ft at a low RPM of 1200, advantageous for pulling heavy loads. Its updraft carburetor and oil bath air cleaner enhance fuel efficiency and longevity of the engine, though these can be less convenient compared to modern fuel injection systems. With a rated RPM of 1850, it offers reliability in diverse agricultural tasks, but at this compression ratio of 7.25:1, it may require careful management of fuel quality to prevent knocking.

J.I. CASE 310E ENGINES

The Case 310E tractor features two engine options: a J.I. Case 3.1L and a 2.4L, both 4-cylinder diesels, providing a balance of power and efficiency. The 3.1L variant will likely deliver higher torque and better performance for heavy-duty applications, while the 2.4L engine offers improved fuel efficiency, making it suitable for lighter tasks or prolonged use with minimal operational costs. Consider the intended application and load requirements when selecting between the two engines to optimize both performance and fuel economy.

TRANSMISSION

The Case 310E tractor features a 3-speed forward and 1-speed reverse gear system, providing basic operational versatility suitable for light agricultural tasks. The 279.4mm dry disc clutch offers reliable power transmission, making it efficient for maneuvering in tight spaces but may exhibit higher wear under continuous heavy-load conditions. Ideal for small farms or landscaping, the simplicity of this setup is advantageous for operators with limited experience but lacks the advanced features found in modern tractors.

J.I. CASE 310E TRANSMISSION

The Case 310E tractor features a 3-speed gear transmission, providing enhanced control over various agricultural tasks by allowing operators to select optimal speeds for different field conditions. Its simplicity in design offers ease of maintenance, yet the limited gear range may challenge efficiency in diverse terrains, necessitating careful speed selection. For tasks requiring frequent speed changes, consider the potential need for additional gear options to improve operational versatility.

MECHANICAL

The Case 310E tractor's crawler drivetrain offers superior traction on varied terrains, making it ideal for construction and land management applications. However, the open operator station may expose the operator to environmental elements, potentially impacting comfort and safety during prolonged use. It is crucial to consider additional protective gear or enhancements for operator comfort in rugged working conditions.
