TRANSMISSION
The Case 600 tractor features a simple [-|-] gear transmission system with 6 forward and 1 reverse gear, providing basic functionality for general farming tasks. This setup allows for decent torque transmission and moderate speed variation, though it may lack the precision of modern multi-gear systems for specialized applications. While advantageous for straightforward operations, the limited gear range might challenge efficiency in more diverse terrain or specific agricultural tasks.

MECHANICAL
The Case 600 tractor features a 4x2 two-wheel drive (2WD) chassis, which offers simplicity and reduced maintenance but may compromise traction on uneven terrain. Its power-assisted steering enhances maneuverability, particularly advantageous in tight working conditions. The 6-speed gear transmission allows for versatility in various field operations, although it may limit performance in extreme gradients without a 4WD option.
