CASEIH 4694 ENGINE
The CaseIH 4694 tractor is powered by an 8.3L six-cylinder diesel engine, which provides robust torque and horsepower for demanding agricultural tasks. Key advantages include efficient fuel consumption and enhanced performance in heavy load conditions, making it suitable for both fieldwork and transport. However, consider the weight distribution and maneuverability on smaller plots, as the size and power can pose challenges in tighter spaces.

TRANSMISSION
The CaseIH 4694 tractor features a partial power shift transmission with 12 forward and 4 reverse gears, promoting efficient speed and torque management across various field applications. The use of a hydraulic wet disc clutch enhances durability and reduces wear, providing smoother engagement during gear shifts. However, the complexity of the H-pattern range lever and inline gear shift may require a learning curve for operators unfamiliar with such configurations, making initial training essential for optimal performance.
| Type | partial power shift |
| Gears | 12 forward and 4 reverse |
| Clutch | hydraulic wet disc |
| Description | Four ranges (1-4) with three power shift gears (1-3) plus reverse in each range. Both shift levers mounted on the dashboard. Range shift lever is to the left in a H-pattern. Gear shift is an inline pattern on the right. |
