ENGINE DETAIL
The Case 412 tractor features a 4-cylinder gasoline engine with a displacement of 251 ci (4.1L), suitable for moderate power demands at a rated RPM of 1500. Its compression ratio of 6.5:1 may limit high-performance applications but enhances fuel efficiency and engine longevity. The 29.6 qt (28.0 L) coolant capacity ensures effective heat management, making it well-suited for prolonged operations in agricultural settings, although the relatively low RPM could affect its suitability for tasks requiring faster speeds.

J.I. CASE 412 ENGINE
The Case 412 tractor is powered by a 4.1L 4-cylinder gasoline engine, which offers a balance between power and fuel efficiency, making it suitable for various agricultural tasks. A key advantage is its relatively lightweight design, which allows for increased maneuverability in tight spaces but may pose challenges in traction on uneven terrain. For optimal performance, consider operating on moderate soil conditions and employing suitable implements to maximize productivity.

TRANSMISSION
The Case 412 tractor features a transmission with 8 forward and 2 reverse gears, offering versatility for varied field conditions and operational speeds. The wide range of forward gears enhances productivity in tasks requiring different velocities, while the 2 reverse gears facilitate maneuverability in tight spaces. However, operators may find the gear transition requires experience to optimize efficiency, especially in complex agricultural environments.

MECHANICAL
The Case 412 tractor features a 4x2 two-wheel drive (2WD) chassis, which is cost-effective and optimal for flat terrains but may struggle in slippery or highly variable ground conditions. Its power steering aids maneuverability, enhancing operator comfort during prolonged use, especially in tight spaces. The 8-speed transmission allows for flexible speed adjustments, making it suitable for both light and moderate towing tasks, although it may not provide the high torque needed for heavy-duty applications.

DIMENSIONS & TIRES
The Case 412 tractor, with a weight of 4,360 lbs (1977 kg), offers stability and traction, making it suitable for various agricultural tasks, especially on uneven terrain. However, its weight may pose challenges in transportability and fuel efficiency, particularly on lighter equipment or smaller vehicles. For optimal performance, consider matching the tractor to implements that complement its weight to prevent soil compaction while maximizing agricultural productivity.
