ENGINE DETAIL
The CaseIH C60 tractor is equipped with a Perkins 903.27T turbocharged diesel engine, delivering a gross power of 64 hp at a rated RPM of 2250, while producing a robust torque of 180 lb-ft at 1400 RPM, making it suitable for moderate agricultural tasks. Its mechanical direct injection system with 5-hole injectors enhances fuel efficiency, though maintenance of the dual paper air cleaner is crucial for optimal performance. The relatively low oil capacity of 8 quarts necessitates frequent oil changes every 250 hours, which ensures engine longevity but can also be a maintenance consideration for operators.
