ENGINE DETAIL
The CaseIH Farmall 45C is powered by an LS Mtron L3C19-T turbocharged diesel engine, providing 45hp and achieving Tier IV emissions compliance through effective exhaust gas recirculation with a Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC) and Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF). Notably, the 1.9L displacement coupled with an electronic direct-injection common rail fuel system enhances fuel efficiency and performance, making it suitable for various agricultural tasks. However, the complexity of the DPF may require more maintenance, presenting a challenge in operational costs compared to simpler engines.

TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW
The CaseIH Farmall 45C features a 16-speed mechanical shuttle hydrostatic transmission, which offers smooth directional changes and precise speed control, enhancing operational efficiency in varied field conditions. This transmission type allows for optimal torque management, making it advantageous for tasks requiring consistent power delivery, such as loader work or tillage. However, the complexity of the system may pose a maintenance challenge and requires operator training to maximize its capabilities.

TRANSMISSION 1
The CaseIH Farmall 45C features a mechanical shuttle transmission with 16 forward and reverse speeds, facilitating smooth direction changes ideal for tasks requiring frequent reversals, such as loader work. Its four synchronized speeds across four ranges enhance versatility, allowing operators to optimize power and efficiency for varying field conditions. However, the mechanical system may require more operator skill compared to fully automatic options, potentially impacting ease of use for less experienced drivers.

| Gears | 16 forward and reverse |
| Description | Four synchronized speeds in four ranges with mechanical shuttle |
TRANSMISSION 2
The CaseIH Farmall 45C features a hydrostatic transmission, providing smooth and precise control over speed and direction, ideal for varied farming tasks. Its infinite (3-range) gear system enhances versatility, allowing efficient operation across diverse terrain and field conditions. However, hydrostatic systems may require more maintenance and can be less fuel efficient under heavy loads compared to traditional gear transmissions.

| Gears | infinite (3-range) forward and reverse |
MECHANICAL
The CaseIH Farmall 45C tractor features a 4x4 MFWD (Mechanical Front-Wheel Drive) chassis, providing enhanced traction on varied terrains, making it suitable for both agricultural applications and landscaping. The mechanical rear differential lock ensures improved traction in challenging conditions, while the wet multi-disc brakes offer reliable stopping power, enhancing safety during operation. With a 16-speed mechanical shuttle hydrostatic transmission, operators can expect smooth gear transitions for optimal control, though this may require some adjustment for users accustomed to hydrostatic systems.

CASEIH FARMALL 45C TIRES
The CaseIH Farmall 45C tractor, equipped with standard agricultural tires (9.5x16 front, 13.6x24 rear), offers optimal traction and stability for farming tasks, making it ideal for plowing and tilling. Switching to lawn/turf tires (28x8.50-15 front, 41x14.00-20 rear) provides a gentler footprint, advantageous for landscaping and maintaining turf health but may sacrifice some load capacity and traction on wet soil. Industrial tire options (12-16.5 front, 17.5Lx24 rear) enhance durability and load-bearing capacity, suited for construction applications, although they may compromise maneuverability in tight farming spaces.
| Standard tires (ag) | Front: 9.5x16. Rear: 13.6x24 |
