ENGINE DETAIL

The CaseIH CS 52 is powered by a Perkins 903.27T 3-cylinder diesel engine, providing a balanced output of 52hp at 2250 RPM and a peak torque of 142 lb-ft at 1400 RPM, which ensures robust low-end performance ideal for heavy agricultural tasks. Its compact displacement of 2.7L allows for efficient fuel consumption while maintaining sufficient power for tasks such as tilling and hauling, although the limited horsepower may challenge performance in heavier applications. Additionally, the 12-volt starter system simplifies electrical compatibility, but it may necessitate careful management of battery health, especially in colder climates where starting efficiency is critical.

CASEIH CS 52 ENGINE

The CaseIH CS 52 tractor is powered by a Perkins 2.7L 3-cylinder diesel engine, offering a balance between power and fuel efficiency, crucial for agricultural tasks. With a fuel tank capacity of 19.3 gallons (73.1 liters), it supports extended operational periods, reducing downtime for refueling. However, the compact engine size may limit power output for heavy-duty applications, making it best suited for mid-range tasks such as horticulture or small-scale farming.

TRANSMISSION

The CaseIH CS 52 features a synchronized transmission with 16 forward and 8 reverse gears, providing versatile speed options for various agricultural tasks. The dry disc clutch enhances durability, but may require more maintenance compared to wet clutches. This configuration facilitates smooth shifting under load, making it ideal for operations such as tilling and hauling, though the complexity may pose a challenge for less experienced operators.

MECHANICAL

The CaseIH CS 52 tractor features a versatile 4x4 MFWD system, enhancing traction and stability in diverse agricultural scenarios. Its 16-speed synchronized transmission allows for smooth gear changes, optimizing power delivery and operational efficiency. However, while the standard cab offers basic comfort, operators working extended hours may find the absence of advanced ergonomic features challenging.

CASEIH CS 52 TIRES

The CaseIH CS 52 tractor offers flexibility with two-wheel drive (2WD) and four-wheel drive (4WD) options, catering to different traction needs and terrain challenges. The 2WD configuration with standard agricultural tires provides cost-effectiveness and simplicity for flat, firm fields, while the 4WD setup enhances stability and traction on uneven and slippery ground. Consider the weight distribution and tire sizes for optimal performance in specific applications; for instance, the larger 4WD tires can improve pulling power in challenging conditions but may also increase operational complexity and maintenance needs.
